"Amazing experience of giving birth"

About: St Thomas' Hospital / Maternity care

I am expecting my second daughter and I am happy to remember that having my first baby was wonderful in your birth centre. I am not going to forget about that amazing staff member who helped me during the labour even If it was quiet hard time. I feel myself very lucky that I could give birth in water in very frendly and peaceful atmosphere because it made everything easier for me and for my baby. I live in Hungary now. I am very sad that the possibilities are very limited here. In public health care there is no contingency for water birth, and the rate of medical intervention is very high to make the labour quicker and - in there opinion- safer. So I wish I could go to St Thomas's birth centre again. Time and date of birth: 12-04-2015 3:20 am. Unfortunately I forgot the name of the staff member who delivered my Lili, but please tell them thank you for making that day a wonder.
