So happy for you

this is a silly question, but what's the difference between your doctor and midwife?

LittleAngel_x · Apr 17th, 2012, 23:21 PM

GP is just a regular doctor and Midwifes specialised in child birth and pregnancy.

Your midwife is with you when your in labour aswell

How have you been feeling??

That's good, I don't know what I'd do without midwives

And you'll be getting antenatal appointments soon too!

Oooh I though since you were 11 weeks it would be booking lol, that's roughly when my hospital does booking appointments lol

Im not 100% sure but the doctor referred me to the midwifes for antenatal.
Will just find out tomorrow

Where i live in Australia you start off at the doctors till your about 10weeks then they refer you to the midwifes (another doctors basically but theres certain places to sit to be seen for different things haha.) and you go there untill you are in labour and your midwife meets you at the hospital you chose to have bubs at. (you tell them what hospital and they find a midwife who works at the hospital and the midwife place and set you up with her)

Just a new system thats been set up for around 5yrs now.
