My Midwife is the last in her group of midwives that still does full home visits throughout and post pregnancy. She is going on leave for a month now so will have to see her back up midwife at the clinic.

I personally think that the midwife coming to your home is a great thing as then they can see the envionment that you are bringing baby into, is it safe and clean and warm etc. I wonder if having midwives do home visits would help with the child abuse problem sometimes!

My MW can do either. Whatever is easiest for her clients as long as they will be at home on the days that she does home visits.

I pretty much always go to her unless im really not feeling up to it. ]]> Tue, 21 Jul 2009 12:04:44 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=27600&PID=727704&title=lmc-who-visits-who#727704 <![CDATA[LMC - Who Visits Who : my first visit was at home, my...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=27600&PID=727694&title=lmc-who-visits-who#727694 Author: Tastic

I visit my MW at their clinic on her specific clinic days. She comes to me after I have the baby though for the first visit I think.

 

My SIL's MW came to her at home for each appointment.

I visit my midwife at her clinic- but as she shares it with a group of midwives she can only use the room on 2 days a week that dont really suit me which is a pain- I should have found out what the arrangements for visits would be before getting her as my midwife really.
Last time my midwive came to our house for every visit, but then we changed midwives at 32 weeks preg as my midwife got a new job, and that midwife I had to go to the hosp to see, and when she was on holiday I saw her replacement at a Dr's surgery!]]> Mon, 20 Jul 2009 20:44:12 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=27600&PID=727304&title=lmc-who-visits-who#727304 <![CDATA[LMC - Who Visits Who : Thanks for all the replies.

Thanks for all the replies. It's interesting to see that it really does depend on the midwife.

It'll be a lot easier for me to have home visits, because I don't drive, but it's not a huge issue if they don't. I'll speak to a few local midwives and see what they say.

My independant mw would come to me, but I work just around the corner from her house so mostly I visit her simply because it's easier for us both. However she has made a point of coming out to me a couple of times at weekends so that DH can be there and hear the heartbeat etc. Once I give up work she will come to me.]]> Mon, 20 Jul 2009 20:30:30 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=27600&PID=727280&title=lmc-who-visits-who#727280 <![CDATA[LMC - Who Visits Who : My chch midwife saw me at various...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=27600&PID=727266&title=lmc-who-visits-who#727266 Author: peanut butter
