β° LONG WAIT TIMES & SHORT APPOINTMENT TIMES:
you wait forever in uncomfortable waiting room chairs to only have the most briefest of appointments and you leave with all your questions unanswered and even more confused.
π€― CONFLICTING ADVICE:
do this, don't do that, listen to the "professional", birth this way, mother that way. Oh my goodness! Talk about confusion!
π€ GETTING TOLD YOU NEED INDUCTION:
but it just doesn't feel right, the advice you're getting to be induced and you don't want to induced. How can tell what is the truth and what is BS.
π FEEL LIKE A NUMBER:
You can feel the tick boxes getting checked off everytime you engage with the system and you don't feel your journey is catered to you, it's catered to the system.
π© LOST IN THE SYSTEM:
it's big, it's short staffed, it's over-run and there you are in the middle of it, trying to find a way out......you found it π€©
π NOT HEARD:
your story is on repeat, your wants and wishes fall on deaf ears, and you're not getting the journey you long for and the weeks are ticking away.
