After having all of my appointments at the facility I felt like we were quite friendly with the majority of the staff and was adamant that I wanted to give birth at the facility.
However with my son determined not to come out on his own accord I had to be induced which meant a hospital birth. Needless to say I was a bit upset that the one thing I wanted for my birth could not come true.
After struggling with breast feeding at the hospital when we were offered to transfer to the birthing centre I jumped at the chance because I know that they are fairly supportive and a lot more hands on with the breast feeding.
Upon arriving the receptionist Angela knew as soon as she saw me what I was there for and lunch had been saved for me as I had not had lunch at the hospital.
I am now breast feeding confidently and without any struggles with lots of thanks from this centre. I feel like without this support I would have given up hope with breast feeding, which being able to do so has only allowed me to bond further with my son.
