About: Bedford Hospital South Wing

My daughter was born on the in october 2013 in Bedford hospital.delivery suit n the midwives were absolutely amazing,they made feel really important, 1 of the Midwife didn't even go home till i had my baby n i was in labour for more then 15 hours, i had a horrible labour n had forceps.after i had my baby i was moved to the ward at 12 am n my husband went home,the staff didnt help at all were rude 2me when i asked 4 help.i couldn't get out of the bed i asked a nurse to hold my hand n she said no because i might hurt her back later on my baby was crying n i was in a lot of pain so i called 4 help n the nurse was so rude she said thats your baby shes your responsibility we cant be here all night looking after your baby after that i didnt ask for any help,i was there for 3 nights then my baby was moved 2 the neonatal word for having low sodiumn i stayed there 4 a week. I feel disappointed n scared 2 have baby ther again. If they the staff dont want to do their job properly then shouldnt be working there.
