I had both of my babies here! The midwives and doctors are wonderful. I was really looked after and felt safe. You can tell they are rushed of their feet though. My midwife explained that they have seen an influx of mothers choosing RSCH over other providers in Surrey due to having the highest CQC rating. So overall a very positive review, just beware they are very busy which can mean waiting longer for care. I would be happy to share more if you want to message me x

Family names

My mums first name is the same as my MIL middle name. We plan to use this and my hubbys fav name as middle names. Is this ok or disrespectful to MIL?

Membrane sweep

For those of you who have declined a membrane sweep, did you have to be induced after your due date? Ive seen declining a membrane sweep can increase the chances of having to be induced.
