Hi Everybody !
I'm 5 weeks pregnant with my 2nd child and thinking of having it in St Georges hospital, anybody has been there ? I had my dd in Chelsea and West but it was horrible, one of the night midwife was pretty nasty to so I don't want to go back there...Is St Georges a good choice ? Thank you for your answers !!!

I had a similar experience at C&W redfruit. While all the pre birth stuff was great (all the scans, the antenatal appts etc.) the post natal ward was abysmal - they accused me of not making enough of an effort when dd couldn't latch on and when she cried, they patronised me for not being able to sooth her. They were real witches and the only factor in their defence was that they were understaffed and overworked.

I stayed in Kings for 7days after DD was born and virtually every midwife was fantastic and I met a few. SOme were better than others but never rude and always very helpful.
