I'm coming upto 27 weeks now and while I know baby is okay, I feel her moving around in there, and she's been perfect at scans, it worries me that my midwife never bothers to check the heartbeat.
I don't know if this is standard practice in my area?
I've probably seen my midwife a whole 3 times and can't say I'll be sad to change midwife when we move house. She didn't even tell me when she'd gone on holiday and I can never reach her!
But anyway, the original question, has anyone else NOT had the heartbeat checked at all?
I am classed as high risk because of my BMI and low thyroid, so would have thought they'd want to listen to it.
