Hello, I'm due my third baby soon and after two relatively straight forward births in the main delivery suite in the hospital, I'm considering the midwife led unit this time.
After my previous two births I felt quite rushed as they wanted to move me to the postnatal ward quite quickly. I've read that if you give birth in the midwife led unit you can stay in the room until you're discharged (which is usually around 6 hours).
Has anyone used a maternity led unit who wouldn't mind sharing their experiences please? Did you feel rushed? Was it a more relaxed birthing experience? Did they monitor the baby frequently?
Thanks in advance
