I've always given my midwives a small gift at my 6 weeks discharge. We don't pay directly for maternity care here (but do indirectly from our taxs) so i like to give a little something personal. I also am good friends with my midwive so we exchange cards at christmas and keep in touch anyway. It was different when I had Lydia as she was a c/section and it was the first time I'd met any of those people and didn't feel it appropriate to give them anything, even a thank you card. I did take a box of chocolates into the post natal ward nurses station though for the staff to share as I was there for 5 day's and 'some' of them were very sweet to me and helped me a lot. -- Andrea If I can't be a good example, then I'll just have to be a horrible warning. |

It is their job. They get paid to do it. I did verbally thank them though. I also took the baby in when she was a couple of weeks old. However, I am in the public health system in Australia. I don't have a specific doctor. -- Daye Momma to Jayan "Boy" EDD 11 Jan 2004 See Jayan: http://jayan.topcities.com/ |

Our story was a bit different... We had a horrible diagnosis at 29 weeks... We scheduled a fetal MRI to confirm or deny the diagnosis, but before we got the final results, we gave the presents we were going to give at the birth to my obstetrician and his two assistants who were fabulous in helping us. Yes, they are paid to work for us, but their attitude was always helpful and they spent so much time far and above the call of duty. After giving birth, we gave them each a bottle of bubbly wine (Korbel, I think). We gave the ob a birth announcement and a couple of photos of him with the baby, too. Because the NICU nurses were so fabulous during Pillbug's 5-day stay, we also wrote a letter to the nurse administrator thanking the nurses for everything they did for us. -- Anita -- -- SUCCESS FOUR FLIGHTS THURSDAY MORNING ALL AGAINST TWENTY ONE MILE WIND STARTED FROM LEVEL WITH ENGINE POWER ALONE AVERAGE SPEED THROUGH AIR THIRTY ONE MILES LONGEST 57 SECONDS INFORM PRESS HOME CHRISTMAS. |

I'm sending a card with pic to the team who looked after me in the early stages when miscarriage was a possibility. The midwife unit got lots of biccies from us after I went home but will probably get a Christmas card and pic of Jack to say "we're doing well, thanks for getting us started". |
