After a routine 12 week scan, it showed that I had miscarried at around 6 weeks, but without any symptoms. I was referred onto the early pregnancy unit. I cannot praise them enough for their support. They provided me and my husband with all the information we needed at that awful time, but in a tactful supportive manner. Most importantly, to me anyway, provided hope for the future. Which in your time of need has a very profound impact.
I opted for medical management (which unfortunately didn't work), but the staff on Branston ward were fantastic, throughout the whole process. They provided excellent holistic care, but also respected me and my husband's privacy as and when we needed it.
I was thankfully discharged home for the weekend and returned on Monday for the surgical management. Again staff on Branston ward provided me with the necessary information and support I needed.
The anaesthetic team in theatres were so very nice, chatty and friendly, putting me at ease. Same goes for the recovery nurses. After a busy bank holiday, they all still had a smile on their face and chatted with me, like I could have been the first patient of the day. They made a difficult situation more bearable. For which I will be forever grateful.
The aftercare on Branston ward was second to none. They tended to my every need which thoughtfulness and definitely kept my dignity in place at all times.
So thank you all so much!
