Thanks, so I've got the summary then, and all the notes were written in my pink book (the one I had all the way through pregnancy, where the mw wrote up all our visits etc).

Kawwww - I'm in Wgtn, but didn't go there - went to Kenepuru Hospital so my midwife was the only one involved - she wrote all the notes in the book, so that must be all the notes there are for me.

Emz, I think it's really important that you get a chance to talk through it all with your midwife (more than once if you need to). You deserve the chance to have your questions answered. My mw certainly asked me many times (on different visits) if there was anything I wanted explained, any questions about what had happened on the day and why, etc.

My pink book is super detailed, but the print out is just one page with bits of info under all sorts of headings - is that all it should be? Birth was straight forward, no pain relief and had only been there for 3 1/2 hours before birth, so not much to say, but is that what you're asking about? Or is there something else I should be looking for?

I got a discharge page printed from the computer. But I also got my MW's hand written notes from throughout the labour that detailed everything from any medications, each time she took Jack's hard rate to the fact that she made me toast afterwards and the time that jack first fed. Maybe this is what was written in your Pink book?
