"Birth of my son, nursery, breastfeeding"

I was admitted to Bunbury hospital after I had seen my doctor for a routine appointment. I was developing pre-eclampsia and was going to be induced, before my waters broke and I went into labour on my own! Everything happened so quickly and within what felt like only a few hours of us being there, he was born! He got sent to the nursery for the first few days, but was able to join us on the postpartum ward on our final night.

The care we received throughout every step was nothing short of amazing. If I could thank every staff member by name I would! All the staff members kept me updated on what was happening in the nursery and made us feel so looked after.

I wanted to specifically thank the beautiful midwife Sam who looked after me while I was labour and was so patient, attentive, and informative to my partner and I. Midwife Cassia the breastfeeding guru on the postpartum ward who was so full of knowledge and tips and got my son to feed without a nipple shield within about 5 minutes. The anaesthetist whose name I cant remember, but who managed to give me an amazing epidural despite me not being able to sit still! All the staff in nursery who where so welcoming and gentle with all the babies. Thank-you to everyone who was involved in my birth journey and made it as memorable as it was <3
