Essex Mums

Hello

I am new to this site so hope I am posting correctly.

I am due to have my baby at St peters in maldon and just wondered whether anybody could tell me there experiences on this maternity unit as I don't know anybody who has used this hospital.

Thanks :-)
Jade

Hi there Jade,

Firstly, welcome to the site

Although I've not had a baby at St Peters myself, I have had several ante-natal appointments there and have always found the staff/midwives to be friendly, efficient and helpful.

I have a few friends that have had babies there though, and none have specifically mentioned any bad experiences (which would be thing discussed in my group lol) - I think the worst I heard was that one of my friends was transferred to Broomfield because her birth became complicated, but that's standard procedure anyway!

When are you due?

Hi Jade.
Welcome to Essex Mums.

Hi Jade, I don't know the hospital but just wanted to say welcome to the site.

Hi Jade, I'm the same as Lea-Marie in that although I didn't actually have my youngest at St Peters my antenatal care was there and I thought the midwives and staff were lovely. Several friends have had their children there and said the care was great! x

Thank you all for your replies, I didn't realise anybody had commented until just now lol! Think I better have a mess about and learn how to use the site properly lol.

I am due in April :-)

It's easy to use once you get the hang of it...

There is an 'Introduce Yourself' section - Maybe pop in there and tell us a little more about yourself, ie where you live etc
