I go through a group of midwives (they are connected with obs, but deliver at a different hospital and never really need them unless emergency c is required). Anyway, we just got a new midwife in (I'm 37 weeks) and she's VERY different than the other midwives. She seems to contradict everything (and I mean EVERYTHING) that the other 4 have to say. She even told me I wasn't dilated (after being checked by 3 other midwives and a nurse at different times over the last 3 weeks, I was at a 2-3). When I asked her why I was 'undilated' she said they must have felt wrong cause you don't shrink... So whats going on? Is it possible for her to feel nothing when everyone else is feeling something? Also, she is keeping me on anti-contraction meds even though I'm 37 weeks...The other midwives told me this would keep me pregnant much longer than 40 weeks if I take them now....but she says "they are joking. you wont stay pregnant too long. no such thing."
SO someone please tell me what they think..... I don't feel comfortable having this woman delivering my baby, so all I can do really is hope she isn't on call when I go into official labor....whenever that may be. Is she nuts? Or is there more than one answer to dilation and meds??? This is stressing me out more than the actual birth....
