I went to the hospital when the contractions started, after the initial assessment, I was asked to go back home as I was dilated just 3 cms, understandable when there many mother's who are/will be required more attention. I waited 24 hours (used Tens machine) and went again, I was dilated enough to get admitted. I was immediately seen by two midwives(one student) who were just wonderful, explained the method of pain killer, asked about my choice. They were considerate to my pain and explained me with patience. When they noticed complication, doctors joined within 3 mins. The baby was examined for hearing, sight, limbs etc. After reading reviewes, I had my reservations about this hospital but my experience have been wonderful, I would recommend it 100%.
