Hospital Help - West Middlesex hospital

I am looking for ladies who have given birth in West Middlesex hospital London, and would love to know about their experience. My first was an emergency C section at another hospital, but this time this hospital is closer. Not sure though if I should think of a second option or stick to it. I am torn between this one and maybe St Marys- Paddington.
I don't want the birthing centre, I am ready for epidural as soon as labour starts. Would love to hear of your experiences there, please.
I am 31 weeks. So must make my mind up. soon. :(

DD1 was born at Queen Charlottes, and DD2 at West Mid, and overall I found the staffing levels, support and facilities favourable at West Mid. This was in the Birthing Centre for both, so I can't vouch for the other areas but in my experience couldn't be happier with West Mid. Take money for parking in your birthing bag!!

Might be worth putting this on the local boards for Hounslow and Richmond as well?

I had my daughter at West Mid - had a long induction and was in there for 4 nights. Staff were lovely, the midwife who delivered was an absolute angel and the anaesthetist was superb. Will definitely go back if I’m lucky enough to have another baby.

I was at Kingston but my Nct friends who opted for west mid were very happy wit the care they received.
