I had a prolonged first stage (3 days) with failure to progress beyond 4cm which eventually resulted in an emergency C section. Myself and my baby then both contracted serious infections and were admitted to hospital for 6 days. I would like to thank the staff at the midwife unit for the unbelievable kindness and care they gave me during my time with them. With my baby in neonatal I had to be wheeled back and forth and needed a lot of help expressing milk to feed him. I could never have done this without them in particular Sarah, a student midwife who was there during labour and supported me the following day. And also Rachel, a support worker in the midwife unit who gave me a level of support I could never have coped without.
