"About a bad midwife experience"

Recently was the worst midwife experience I’ve ever had. I had a midwife at the Armadale Antenatal MGP here in Perth just full out degrade & judge me throughout my entire appointment. Mind you I am 38 weeks pregnant & I felt they were belittling me because I missed appointments. Their lack of professionalism led me to overhear them degrading me to another midwife without them knowing that I was outside the door the whole time waiting for them to finish photocopying my documents.

The entire appointment they were saying I have no excuses & that I didn’t deserve to get a last minute iron transfusion. I felt they belittled me to my face & to other staff members. I’m so disgusted by their unprofessionalism & disappointed because it had been the only bad appointment I’d ever had at the practice.

I believe they judged me because I am a young mum & so put me down whilst I am 9 months pregnant. I hope this midwife hasn’t done this to anyone else but in my opinion they need not to be in this practice if this is how they treat young mothers like myself. I felt they had shamed me unnecessarily. It was all uncalled for & so I had made a physical complaint on a feedback sheet straight away. I hope that it gets taken care of or I hope my experience that I am writing today reaches the right people for this matter to get sorted.
