I've been attending all of my midwife appointments at UCH, Euston, and am due to give birth there on 12th May to DD1. However, DH and I live nowhere near there as moved house when I was approx 3 months pg. We're now based near Lewisham and had never considered going there until I had my NCT classes and the teacher said the birthing centre at Lewisham is fantastic.
Although I'd prefer to be in the birthing centre at either place, I know this obviously can't be guaranteed, and I may end up on the normal labour ward. Am mainly concerned at the travel aspect of getting to UCH (if rush hour, etc) and regarding Lewisham, I've heard that the normal labour ward isn't great.
Anyone have experiences to share - good or bad - of either Lewisham or UCH?
