Hospital question

This isnt baby related but I’m just wondering if anyone might know something, I stay over in Glasgow but my mum was over in England just before she passed she was in hospital for about a week and I went straight over and I was up there visiting as much as I was allowed during visiting times, but everything the doctor had been saying to me just felt completely false and was told she was getting out and would be fine next day call saying she’d passed as I was driving back up to see her ( I was staying in England till she was going to get out of hospital) I just want to know everything they had been giving her why they thought she was there I just want all her files and to look over things, purely just to get passed this

I won’t even get started the way she was treated up there cause I’ll be here all day and will just upset myself again but I really need to get passed this and feel like maybe that would help

But my question is am I entitled to her file is that something they can give me and how do I go about getting it

So sorry for your loss 💕 I'm sure you can request her medical records, not sure how you go about it though, maybe try contacting the hospital? I requested my maternity notes online through the hospital website. May be worth having a look online xx

You can get in touch with PALS at any UK trust, ask to request her medical records. Not sure how it works with consent however, maybe next of kin? But reach out to the trust. Type in Google requesting medical records. Loads will come up xx

I would raise a complaint of medical negligence with the hospital if you think something has gone wrong and they have mistreated her. Or see if you can find a solicitor that specialises in this, you can usually get an hour free consultation-that might help?
I’m very very sorry for your loss ❤️

normal or infected?

5 weeks post c section , i went at the beginning of the week as my wound had opened completely different area to what’s leaking. was told it didn’t look infected. anyone know if this is normal coming off it, it’s only a little amount at a time

Finding out gender

Has anyone found out the gender at a private scan at 14 weeks? And has this been accurate?

I found out at 17 with my first but I know a scan place that offers from 14/15 weeks and I’m impatient 😂🥲

Induction?

Anyone been induced before? Was it more painful? Better than thought? Worse than thought? Worth it? Thoughts?

Baby names

My daughter‘s name is valentýna and I’m struggling to find other nice girl and boy names beginning with V I’ve got a few and I’ve got loads that aren’t beginning with V, but I feel like I wanna go for all vs and I also love girl and boys names that match so because my daughter’s name is valentýna I would love to call my son Valentino my husband does not agree 😃

Induction or c section?

As a last resort, would you rather be induced or have a planned c section?

Really not liking the thought of being induced from people’s experiences I’ve read!
