"Fantastic support"

About: Royal Alexandra Hospital / Community Maternity Unit

(as the patient),

Since being discharged from hospital after the birth of my baby boy I’ve been under the careful attention of 2 community midwifes (stephanie & Lorna) both midwifes have been fantastic in supporting me through breastfeeding when I couldn’t get my attachment correct. I also really struggled with the fact my baby started losing weight and became very emotional over this however I felt completely listened to over my anxieties and was reassured that I was doing great (which as a 1st time mum ment a lot) both midwifes we’re knowledgable, professional yet approachable and a credit to the nhs, we’ve now been discharged from their service and my baby’s weight is on the way up again thanks to the both of them.

Dear Lsm-19,

Thank you so much for taking the time to tell us about how supportive your community midwives were, they will be delighted to hear that they were able to make a difference to your breast feeding journey.

Many congratulations on the birth of your baby boy
