Fast forward couple years to a PCOS diagnosis and an incredible gynae consultant, I got the mirena and had LA & entonox. It was like night and day - minimal pain, no passing out and no issues๐
@nqpcharlie The midwife likely took your full name for their own documentation in terms of who they took handover from so that if any clarification on care given was needed itโs easier to find. It sounds like you did everything you needed to and smashed it!โค๏ธ2/2
@nqpcharlie Hey, Iโm a midwife and please donโt stress! I know itโs easy for me to sit here and say. You followed your guidance and trusted your clinical judgement. Sometimes midwives can forget that our guidelines are different to yours 1/
We need your help ๐

@BWH_NHS launched PERIPrem! Our trolley of treats was welcomed in Antenatal clinic, DAU, Fetal Medicine, Triage, D/S, NICU, PNW&TC. So much enthusiasm about the baby&clinical passports - canโt wait to see them in action. Letโs improve outcomes for preterm babies together! ๐
You may have seen us on @itvnews yesterday. Happy to spread this important message.
If you're pregnant, ask your midwife or GP about getting the whooping cough vaccine.
Very excited to announce this month's guest speaker at the MSW Lead Network - after their amazing talk at @MidwivesRCM Conference, Michael Johnson-Ellis from My Surrogacy Journey will be joining us to discuss their incredible work and how we can support surrogacy safely!
Someone in my mentions today said that biphobia and policing who belongs at Pride and who they are allowed to bring just โhurts a couple of cishet bfs feelings.' Actually, no. That's a WILD misunderstanding of why it's bad.
