After birth care in CHCH

I love lincoln! I can't wait to go back. I attempted my first birth there, but it went a bit awol and I was transfered into town before back out. They welcomed us so warmly on our return, hottie in both of our beds etc. The midwife made awesome milos and latched DD for me in my sleep.

I'm exciting about attempting to have this baby at Lincoln, and will definately transfer back if it turns to custard again (of course it helps that it's 20mins instead of an hour away )

Nope, you share showers. There is also a lovely deep bath. Some rooms are individual, then there is like....a long massively wide corrider sunny side out, divided by curtains in a way, and you get your own area. That sounds awful, but its quite lovely.

I did pop on to say though, I'm going back there because I know it and I know I'll be comfy. Its nowhere near as modern as St. Georges from what I have heard, but then, if you know that, and you know how comfy you are there, will time travelling mean much and would you be better there anyway?

I didn't birth at Lincoln (ended up having emer. C-Sec at womens at 32hr labour!) but I did do antenatal classes there. Didn't find the Antenatal classes much help, the educator was a bit... boring..... and waffled on about her own life a bit much. Anyway, that's besides the point. After our tour of Lincoln, I decided I didn't want to birth there cause I thought it all looked a bit old school with the curtains separating the rooms etc so I chose St Georges as where I wanted to birth (but that didn't happen). It's a much more inviting place!
However...... a few of the ladies in my Antenatal Group either birthed at Lincoln or went there after having their bubs at Womens and they cannot stop RAVING about how great it was. Great food, great staff, great advice! A lot more than what I got at CHCH Womens thats for sure!
