I'm hoping to change to UCH for a (probable) c-section (2nd one) in a few months time. I would be grateful for MN experience of Elizabeth Garrett Anderson Hospital and, in particular, if anyone has had a recent c-section there.
Midwife said the building was all fairly dark and gloomy (moving to new build in 2008) so I might not get that much from visiting but do MNers think it is clean, not to bad for MRSA and good in the event of c-sections/ emergency c-sections (if I went for trial of labour)? It sounds like there is a midwife-led unit and then a more medical, monitored unit. Is that right? If so, I think past history would mean I would be in the second so interesting to know what that in particular is like.
Thanks and sorry for all the questions. Just suddenly realising that if I don't sort myself out I may be down for an elective c-section in a place with a terrible reputation and bad (reputedly) MRSA rate.
