Michelle Bar   10 #1 Posted July 5, 2010 Can you please PM me if you have ever been cared for by midwife Melinda Pagden. I am trying to canvas support for this fantastic midwife who has worked on the One to One team for years and also run the alternative therapies service at the Jessops.  Thanks, Michelle.

You may be interested to know that the alternative therapies service at the Jessops has just been closed down because management see it as "too risky".  Michelle.

cuddlycats   10 #6 Posted July 5, 2010 (edited) And 'uses up' a midwife they could use on the labour ward!  I think midwife care is more than just the labour ward. I found the alternative therapy very beneficial to back pain & panic attacks. Edited July 5, 2010 by cuddlycats Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Lucy-Lastic   10 #9 Posted July 8, 2010 She was great with me - I had aromatherepy massage as I was getting very stressed about having PND with my second baby that it was affecting enjoying the pregnancy. I thought it was an absolutely fantastic service! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
