From the title, my baby is 6 days old now and is yet to be seen by a midwife.
I moved areas and communicated this with my midwifery team and hospital and my new address is all on the system. They said they would transfer my care to my new local midwives.
I have called the hospital I gave birth at around 5 times now regarding this and they have said that they have passed on my details to the new midwives and are not sure what is happening. I have no idea what to do since I keep chasing it and we are still awaiting a visit.

I'd contact your local children's centre and see if their health visitors can organise anything as they should be checking on day 5

I'd chase up the local health visitor's team. Transfers/referrals can take some time especially if they don't triage them every day.

Could you contact your GP and they should be able to give you the number for the right team (or maybe able to see you themselves if they are staffed for it)
