Review of birth - after 9 months

Just back from hosiptal after a meeting with senior MW/liason about birth of DD.

I feel so much better for going and talking about my disappoitment with the things that happened and hearing her say I was right. I'd recommend it to anyone who feels let down after the birth.

2 major points I had were that no MW told me to wake DD and feed her - premature and this needed doing - contributed to me expressing and then giving up and formula feeding. 2) A MW took stitch out of DD head (caused during labour taking her blood oxygen levels) after only 3 days - not nearly long enough. Also no one explain my test results for pre-ecampsia now I've gone through it all I understand a lot more. It feels like i've had a weight lifted off my shoulders.
