Private room post birth
Hi,
After I give birth I was wondering if I can request a private room (Idm paying for it) I read somewhere it can be like 100/200 per night. To clarify I don't want to give birth privately in an NHS hospital. I just think I might want some privacy afterwards. Does anyone know if all hospitals offer this and how do we go about requesting this?
Thanks a lot in advance

It’s hospital dependent so I’d speak to the hospital you’re planning to give birth at. Mine used to but due to such high volumes of women they stopped them and turned them into over flow rooms they can no longer be booked x
This isn’t something that NHS hospitals offer. Mine allows a few hours before being moved to a shared room
Definitely ask, but I imagine that they won’t be able to guarantee it as they will be on a health need basis.
I was told the same thing so I had my hopes up, but this was absolutely not a thing when I asked. I was also in hospital for a week after my first and never got our own room.
You can usually find out online if this is something your trust offers but if not ask your midwife. It's not a thing at my hospital at all

Pain in the shoulder
Hey everyone!
Anyone experienced shoulder pain during pregnancy?
I’m reading all these things online and I’m starting to freak out as I am not sure if it’s because of training or something more serious. It’s not at the tip of the shoulder and don’t have any bleeding.
My scan is on the 5th of November! I am about 5 weeks ish

Big Baby!
Had a growth scan today at 36 weeks and baby is measuring 7lbs and 9oz. The doctor has said they would like me to have an induction at 38 weeks which I’m happy to do but also not opposed to having a c section. Can anyone offer any advice or previous similar experiences! Thanks x
