Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: BBA
by Bertie Bassett
Had something similar a few weeks ago. BBA, not a planned home birth but went well, mother asked me if she could stay at home so i decided to try and arrange a midwife to come out instead. The community midwife named on her green note's was not answering the phone so I phoned the delivery suite of the hospital she was booked for. The hospital she was booked at was not the closest to her house and they said that their community midwife's did not come out that far, so they gave me the number to the local hospital's delivery suite. The local hospital said that their community midwifes did not do home visits out of office hours so gave me a (familiar looking) number to try instead. The "familiar" looking number was the general enquiries number to or own control room! My own controller (bless her) contacted first response (who deal with out of hours GP visits) and they found a midwife for me. Midwife turned up and bullied the mother into going to hospital (and yes bullied is the right way to describe the way the midwife spoke to the mother). The midwife said to me "I never leave people at home" which after all the fuss I had gone thru to grant the mothers wish to stay at home was a bit frustrating to say the least.
