I had an appointment for my 40 weeks check-up with a visiting obstetrician at Kununurra District hospital. I found them very abrupt, forceful and pushy with their views and opinion. I felt I was being pushed to be induced on the obstetrician's timeframe and not what had previously been discussed.
They wanted to book me in then and there. When I requested the time frame that had previously been discussed, I believe I was made to feel stupid and irresponsible. They did not answer any of my questions and, I feel, made assumptions of pains I was asking about. I also had to specifically request a stretch and sweep procedure, it was not offered or discussed. Overall I just felt not listened to.
