Was it the maternity unit or a different part?
Family have had a pretty good experience in relation to a&e and general use of the hospital.. but have heard the maternity unit is not great at the moment.. lack of communication, etc

I am glad you had a good experience. I was in paediatrics and it was awful.

I'm having an okay experience at midlands met during this pregnancy. Far better than heartlands. I find some of the consultants rude though 🤦🏽‍♀️

I’ve had a really good experience here, but it was just at the antenatal department. I’m so sad to hear you’ve had a bad one :( my sister in law had multiple awful experiences at Russell’s Hall (which is my next closest) so I decided to go with Met. I hope your experiences get better there x

Day out after c section

Hey,
I had an emergency c section 1 week ago I obviously don't want a day out right now but I have things booked for the Easter holidays so in 2 weeks. I was just wondering if I will be overdoing it if I have a day out then or will I be ok? I would still take it as easy as I could. When did everyone feel good enough to go out?

Period like cramps

Hi
I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant and I keep getting period like cramps I thought these were Brixton hicks but I’ve heard they only last 30 seconds ish as this can go on for a good time frame then go away and come back, they aren’t bad enough where I can’t do basic things they just feel like I’m about to get my period I’m jus wondering how normal this is? Baby is still very actively kicking xx

C section or natural?

I am a control freak and thinking c section is the least stressful route for me and baby… less complications during labour etc. whilst acknowledging recovering can be hard.
If it could be guaranteed no tearing or complications then I would opt for natural and kind of want to experience the feeling.
Then again could plan and go either way 😂 arghh!
Anyone else in this predicament?

Midwife check

Can someone remind me when the midwife visits you at home? Is it the day after you’re discharged? And is that the same on the weekend or do they not visit then? Thanks!

Owlet

Anyone else’s owlet pi##ing them off ?!?! It goes off 5/6 a night saying it can’t get a reading and needs a snug fit. My baby is 8 months old so moves a lot. It is driving me insane and I keep end up taking it off!!
