I have just rang my local after care maternity unit to arrange a visit. And have just been told they dont do them any more.
I know this may sound strange to you ladies but with this being my 1st . I had got myself ready to have the baby in hospital, then to be looked after for a couple of days, shown what to do etc.
I am now totally crapping my pants, Im so worried,nervous and upset I am typing this with a few tears...
I can still go to this maternity unit to give birth but then after so many hours, have to go. Plus if I needed etc special care or epidural i cant have it, which scares me no end. Plus the fact the hospital carts you out straight away now, i feel like boom bash, its out, your going .. done..
Can any one help me in my thoughts? Can you pay for private after care, I just feel like the last place i will want to be is at home worrying about the ironing :(
