"Induction and Birth of Daughter - staff amazing at their jobs"

Was scheduled to be induced on Saturday due to having  Polyhydramnios (too much amniotic fluid)

 I didn’t receive a call to go in as scheduled as Labour ward was extremely busy. Received a call on Sunday evening asking me to come in as they now had space on the ward for me. I was welcomed straight away by my amazing midwife Sophie. Made to feel completely relaxed and at ease. Every step was explained fully. It all started off smoothly then I had a few complications due to my daughter being stressed with contractions and moving from pelvis. I can not fault the care I received from whole midwife and doctor team in the Labour ward, they acted quick and again I was made aware of exactly what was happening at all times. The care I received from Sharon who also helped during my sons birth 15 months previously was also exactly what myself and daughter needed and I believe it was her care and experience that helped me avoid needing an emergency Caesarean. 

For the remainder of my Labour I was supported and helped by Sophie - I honestly don’t think I could of done it without her help. The staff at Aberdeen Maternity Labour ward are amazing at there job. I have had 2 very different birth experiences in this ward now - spontaneous birth and also a planned induction. Both times the staff have been great and I have been treated with kindness and support throughout. Can’t thank the staff here enough - they truly are amazing at there jobs!
