To think post natal wards are absolute shit?

[SprogletsMum]

I had ds2 this morning and have been put onto a full 4 bay ward.

2 of the 3 other women have been quiet most of the day but one keeps ringing people all day long. There has not been a single minute of quiet all day.
I've been awake since 1am and I'm shattered but she just won't shut up.
I'm going home to the other 3 dc for some peace and quiet as soon as ds2s 12 hours of obs are up.

My experience with first dc was horrible (private hospital outside Europe ) ..I paid to have a nurse tell me off for asking for a bowl to vomit into when painkillers made me throw up. The bill was horrendous. By contrast the free post natal care I got for next baby born here was brilliant

Is there any chance MNHQ could put this somewhere it won't disappear and direct the CQC or similar to it? It's nothing short of a national scandal. I didn't exactly have 5-star care but some of you seem to have been treated like POWs.

Oh good. Should have paid more attention. Go Mumsnet.
