Hi everyone,
My partner and I are trying to choose a hospital for the birth of our first child. We live in Lambeth, south London and have narrowed our choice to either King's or St. Thomas's. The GP is heavily pushing St. Thomas's but it's further than away than King's. Has anyone given birth in either of these two places in the last 12 months? What are staffing levels like (being a first birth neither of us know what to expect and are both quite nervous. Our worst case scenario is having one midwife shared with 6 other people)?
Any comments on either department would be much appreciated.
Thank in advance.
