"Reassured me throughout"

Went in to labour spontaneously, called the labour ward and made our way in. Was met by Christina, whose care throughout was outstanding, she made me feel so safe and supported in what turned out to be a very fast labour. She reassured me throughout after being with me for my first birth which was nothing short of traumatic. The birth of our second daughter has definitely healed me from the trauma of my first birth. Cannot thank the staff enough for the amazing care myself and partner received. You are all amazing.

Thank you so much MARM2909 for taking the time to feed back to us.

I am delighted you had such a positive experience with Christina and felt safe and supported. Also, to hear that this experience has been healing from previous is so powerful, this is such a positive outcome from previous trauma.

I will share your very kind words with the team, they will be delighted!

I hope you are settling in with your new baby at home.

Kind regards

Claire
