"Birth"

About: King Edward Memorial Hospital / Maternity

(as the patient),

I was lucky to be looked after by the MGP from KEMH and had a great experience. This was my second pregnancy and the care I received was so much better than the regular antenatal service I had for my first.

My midwife followed me the whole time (from 20 weeks), delivered my baby and did the home visits afterwards too. 

Having a familiar face all this time and being able to build a trust relationship with my midwife made a huge difference on the big day: as soon as I heard her voice as she walked in the birthing suite I felt a huge relief and was ready to push. 

She knew how I wanted to give birth, what was important for my partner and myself and I had complete trust in any suggestion she made. I knew she would respect all of our wishes as much as possible. That resulted in an easy and beautiful birth that I am very grateful for.

Thank you MGP and in particular Jascinta, my amazing midwife.
