Midwifery Services

There's a lot in the media at the moment about how bad the services to expectant mothers is in the UK nowadays.

Well, I just wanted to say what a good experience we had. James was born at the Midwifery Led Birth Unit, which is attached to the Rosie Maternity Hospital within Addenbrooke's in Cambridge. For the whole time we were there, we had the fantastic one-to-one attention of Emily Moy, one of their midwives, who was very very helpful. Everything was about as relaxed as it could be, and basically I'm not sure we could have asked for anything more!

That said, we were the last family there that day before the unit had to shut (again, apparently) for a while because of a lack of staff, so perhaps we were the lucky ones?
