I had an excellent experience being looked after by Rebekah during the birth of my first baby.
Rebekah, who had just started her shift, came into the delivery suite and immediately made myself and my husband feel at ease by making the room feel cosy and calm with dimmed lighting/music etc.
Unfortunately my birth did not go to plan (back to back baby, failure to progress past first stage, sepsis) but Rebekah was so attentive and made sure to we were fully informed of what was happening and our choices.
I was really unsettled and emotional once the decision was made to deliver via emergency c section, but she left me feeling much more comfortable, calm and confident that it was right decision for myself and my baby.
Rebekah is born to be a midwife and we couldn't be more thankful for all her help.
