"absolutely disgusting"

About: Sunderland Royal Hospital

I went into very slow labour at 25 weeks pregnant on the 19th of dec I phoned the hospitals maternity day care centre at 1pm and told them about the pains I was havong which were contractions and a lot of blood when I wiped they told me to wait until 3:30pm before going to the hospital as they were "too busy" to see me I was then put into a room with 3-4 other women which wasnt very private where they checked blood pressure ect they then took me to another room to be examined and sent me home with a suspected water infection. How Is it that trained staff can confuse a sussuspected water infection with labour?? I had to go back to the hospital 2 days later because the pains got stronger and my waters broke a week after my "suspected water infection my daughter was born by c section at the rvi where they are fantastic and doctors told me I had been in slow labour for the full week please ask for a second opinion at sunderland!!!!
