I am now ready to welcome my baby into the world

"I am now ready to welcome my baby into the world"

About: Royal Oldham Hospital / Maternity

(as a service user),

My experience with the antenatal clinic was brilliant, all the staff were so supportive and attentive to both my physical and mental state.

This is my first pregnancy and my baby has a birth defect. As you can imagine this was very hard to take in. But with the guidance and help from the midwifes and consultants I was able to prepare myself and understand my baby's condition. I am now ready to welcome my baby into the world and am prepared for my journey into motherhood :)
