Made our experience such a positive one

"Made our experience such a positive one"

About: Maternity care / Maternity Ward

(as the patient),

I had my first child at Kirkcaldy maternity recently. My main midwife was Louise, and from start to finish, she was just wonderful.

Louise made our experience such a positive one and I was able to have the calm pool birth that I wanted because of her care & support. I believe she’s made for what she does, and we can’t thank her & the rest of the staff enough. 

If funding allowed for more pool rooms, I think it would be a very positive thing, as I was just lucky that nobody else was using it at the time I arrived.

We are so pleased to hear that you have had the birth experience you had hoped for. We try to ensure this for all women and families. The staff work very hard to enable to provide the care they do and I know Louise will be delighted you have felt, safe and supported.

Water is such an effective pain relief tool in labour. We facilitate many waterbirths each month in both our birthing pools and and we are glad you have felt the benefits.

Thanks again for your feedback I will ensure Louise receives it.

Take care.
