"Outstanding help and support"

About: Dr Gray's Hospital / Maternity care

(as the patient),

Since week 6 of being pregnant I had the worst sickness right the way through, and also with the nerves of being a first time mum, made my pregnancy really tough.

I was very fortunate to be assigned Kirsty as my midwife and she was amazing! Kirsty made sure I had the best support for both me and my baby boy, from information websites and social groups, to being able to drop her a text for anything that was on my mind or questions I had. 

Kirsty came round after my baby boy was born, and as well as doing all the checks, she showed both myself and my partner how to use the baby sling - which has been fantastic! I'm not sure how to go about it but I would like Kirsty to be considered for the Daisy Award, due to outstanding help and support.

Also I would like to thank all the midwives at Dr Grays hospital, team Bluebell, and especially Ashley, who was kind enough to take my baby boy for a few hours so I could sleep/recover - which was really needed! 

Thanks again!

Dear Tanya562

Firstly, may I send my congratulation's on the birth of your baby boy. It is a very exciting time settling into family life with a new baby.

I wanted to thank you for taking the time to send this review when you must be very busy.

It is lovely to hear that you felt supported by Kirsty through out the antenatal period and again on the arrival of your son.

I will ensure and share your comments with both Kirsty and Ashley.

Good wishes for the future

Regards

Tracy Stronach
