"Made me feel as though I was a problem"

My pregnancy journey wasn’t the easiest, I was classed as high risk with hyperemesis. During my pregnancy I was in and out of hospital with reduced movements, extreme pains and the list goes on. A particular midwife made what was supposed to be a magical experience a rather hard and daunting experience. The midwife would make nasty comments and I felt they treated me very horribly, all the while seeming to be very nice, helpful and supportive of other pregnant women. 

I would always call PRI first in hopes of going there because all the midwives are lovely, but finding out I had to go to Ninewells always put a pit in my stomach and making me not want to go because I didn't want to face this midwife, who I feel shamed me every time I went in. 

I went into slow back labour and was admitted into Ninewells, while in the antenatal clinic, the midwife told me to sit in one of the plastic chairs in the waiting room. I was in the waiting room getting more uncomfortable and hurting, going back and forth, explaining how uncomfortable I was and the midwife made me feel as though I was a problem, rolling their eyes even when I was crying and calling me dramatic. 

After the doctor came and said I was being admitted, the midwife took me and my partner down to the ward, forcing us to take the stairs, constantly calling me dramatic for wanting to take the lift because it was hurting too much to walk. During the 7 hours I spent in the ante-natal clinic I was not spoken to or asked if I needed anything even when visibly upset.
