PAH or Broomfield

[user1499082125]

I am due to have my second baby next year and have been given the choice of Broomfield Hospital or Princess Alexandra Hospital in Harlow to have the baby. I had my first at PAH and didn't have a great experience. Does anyone have any recent experience of Broomfield or any views as to which might be better?

Thank you!!

Not sure if you’re still considering where to go but I’ve just had my daughter at PAH and it was exceptional. I was having to be regularly monitored towards the end and that was great, then a 4 day induction - bloody painful but amazing, kind care, then a 22 hour labour with 3 shift changes of midwives 2 of which were excellent and one good. They have a lot of student midwives there who are great too. Doctor delivered baby - lovely doctor. Absolutely wouldn’t look elsewhere when we have a second and it’s certainly not my closest hospital.

Judging by the way Broomfield are handling all of their referrals, I'd so they might not be much better.
