"I thought my waters broke"

I went to the Antrim hospital EOU department I think it’s called because I thought my waters had broke.

Mary, a midwife and literally one of the nicest women I’ve ever met in my life made me feel completely at ease reassured me and talked me through everything that was happening and going to happen.

Did all the necessary tests to check my waters hadn’t broken while keeping me calm and they even fed me because I hadn’t eaten since my breakfast that morning.

My waters hadn’t broke thankfully as I’m 36 weeks and it’s a bit too early so a false alarm but I came away feeling completely relaxed with all questions answered.

Hands down one of the best experiences I’ve ever had in this whole pregnancy in regards to medical care and the professionalism but at the same time Mary was like having your mum with you in the comfort she was able to give. I hope to see her when I am really in labour!

And shout out to all the midwife’s there they were absolutely fantastic and a credit to their profession.
