"some good some bad"

About: University Hospital Of North Durham

I was admitted at 2pm and told I wasn't in labour and sent home was in agony so rang back at 10pm to be told could go threw but would be going home as defo not in labour got there and got checked and I actually was after that i had the same midwife who was on shift unti 730 which happened to be the exact time I gave birth she was brilliant but as soon as she went everything went down hill. I lost way too much blood they forced me to get up which resulted in me feeling faint. Then I was left without pain relief for hours at a time. Told to rest then they wouldn't let me as were in and out trying to get blood which they knew they couldn't get. Overall experience was before labour 1/10 during labour 10/10 after labour 0/10. I just wanted to go home as I knew I could have pain relief and rest.
