My newborn needed light therapy for jaundice, I was so anxious about this and really didn’t want to go back into hospital after only just getting home earlier in the day.
As soon as I arrived at Ward 3 the midwife on duty came to speak to me and my partner and I was immediately put at ease, she explained everything to me and gave me the reassurance I needed.
The night shift staff then came on and I had Marina as my midwife, I cannot explain how grateful I am for her care, she really went above and beyond. The care she gave to both me and my newborn son was exceptional, she looked after him and gave me a chance to catch up on sleep which was desperately needed, I felt so at ease and all the initial anxiety I had about being in hospital was gone, I couldn’t have asked for better care. I will always remember how appreciative I felt for Marinas care when I was newly postpartum and at my most vulnerable. Thank you so, so much.
