Antenatal
Once it was discovered that my rhesus is negative I was offered a test to check the baby's blood type. I did that and 4 weeks afterwards I still hadn't been contacted to get the results (either by post or call from a midwife). Having tried several times and spent hours to try to contact the antenatal team to ask about the results I managed to leave a message for a midwife to contact me. The midwife called me to let me know that the baby is positive and I need to do the Anti-D injection. More than a week later I got the results by post. I asked the midwife if they could book the appointment for the injection and let me know when it would be but they said I would be contacted by post. Now, one week before week 28 that I need to get the injection I still haven't received a letter with an appointment and again trying to get them on the phone is impossible..The only way to ask a question / book/ change an appointment is to go there unfortunately. So if you are working or leave far from the hospital, I wouldn't recommend the hospital.
"Impossible to find them on the phone/book..."
