"Midwife was fantastic throughout"

About: Forth Valley Royal Hospital / Maternity unit

(as the patient),

I would like to give a massive thank you to my midwife Toni who looked after myself, my husband and when he eventually arrived my baby boy. I had quiet a dramatic time in labour and unfortunately had to have an emergency section under general anaesthetic. Toni was fantastic throughout and kept myself and my husband calm. My husband and I felt so at ease when Toni took over and it made the experience a lot easier. Anything we didn't understand she explained to us and helped me with breastfeeding which if it wasn't for her I would have given up as I found it so hard to start with. thank you and keep up the good work.

Dear Lmiln34

We are delighted to hear that Toni was fantastic during and after the birth of your baby. I am sure that Toni will also be pleased to hear what a positive impression she made on you and your husband at such an important time in your life.

We will share your comments with her. Thank you for taking the time from, what I am sure is, a very busy life to post this comment- it is very much appreciated.

Congratulations and very best wishes to you all.
