The birth of my first baby

Posted By ftm2023

"The birth of my first baby"

About: Maternity care / 2 East Midwifery Led Unit (MLU) Maternity care / 2 West Maternity Maternity care / Delivery suite

(as a service user),

I was admitted for induction of labour and from the second I walked through the doors of labour ward I was made feel at ease. All the staff ; domestics, maternity support workers, midwives and sisters were amazing. My labour was long due to baby's position but with the support of all the staff I progressed to a normal delivery and I am so delighted. Special mention to midwives Lauren, Judith, Laura and sisters Joan and Ashling. I can't thank you all enough.

Following a normal delivery I was admitted to 2west/MLU in Craigavon Hospital. I can't explain how grateful I am for the care I received. Under the circumstances of shortages of staff and the pressures the staff are under due to the volume of work my care was exceptional. Special thanks to Amy, Patricia, Kirsty and Victoria! You are all amazing
