"fantastic maternity care"

About: Friarage Hospital Site

Anything else?

The maternity care that I received at the friarage was fantastic.I thought that I was going to have a straightforward birth, however it ended up being complicated as my waters had broke spontaneously at 38 weeks and I had to have my labour induced. the labour however, did not progress smoothly and I ended up with a forceps delivery after 20 hours of labour and pushing for 2 hours. the staff handled the situation very professionally and promptly and there was no delay in getting an epidural when i needed one. I had 2 midwives on the day which I am really grateful for, as I know how busy it can be, and the staff were brilliant and really caring. Thank you for the wonderful care I recieved.
