I had both my children on the delivery suite at RBH, June 2014 and August 2016. Both times the midwives looking after me have been amazing, in particular the second time around. I can't fault the care I received and were I to have another baby I would want to have them at RBH. For my second child I was induced and the information provided and time taken to ensure I understood the process were excellent. My second pregnancy needed regular monitoring and j always felt well cared for by the midwives I saw.
I would say however that unfortunately I did not experience the same level of care or attitude from the sonography department who were rude and dismissive of me even at times when I had been directed there due to concerns regarding babies movement and growth. I was told at one appointment there was nothing wrong with my child he just has short legs! Which he doesn't. I had appointments rearranged without being communicated with and at times waited for hours on end. However this was nothing to do with the midwives or consultants I saw throughout my pregnancy.
