The worst experience with my pregnancy. My waters were broken and when baby was born he has a chunk cut out of his head which is raw - 4 people at this hospital stated different things as to what it was, to which we now know it was due to waters being broke to aggressively. Student community midwife twice messed up taking bloods of baby and thr main midwife on first visit stated a jaundice test was needed but yet the second midwife stated no way is he yellow so why was this taken...twice due to students mess up with taking it. Roll on 4 days after baby, community midwife stated I needed to go in. I got confirmation I would have a room as i will be taking baby in with me, i arrived to the parking machine taking my money twice and now not having a room ready. My 5 day old baby sat in a car seat for hours and I couldn't breast feed him either. Really appalling service from everyone maternity related, no communication and having to literally fight for my son to have basic care.
