QUOTE (alyssatahli @ 27/03/2012, 09:14 PM)  I had DD1 at Knox and had a stay at the mother baby unit with her at 6 weeks old at Mitcham. Having some experience at both I would go with option 3 and have your baby at the Angliss. You can still have your own OB but the care you will receive there is far superior to Knox and Mitcham. I had DD2 at the Angliss with the same OB. I am glad you had a good stay at the Angliss however with an average stay of 24 hours post baby it is not for everyone. My friends DD delivered there 5 weeks ago and was asked to go home 8 hours after the birth of her first baby because they needed the bed. She had a once a day home visit from a midwife for 5 days. Not much use when her baby wouldn't attach for every feed  |

Hi Rejoice23
Which hospital did you decide on? I have just found out I am 5 weeks and am trying to decide between Knox and Mitcham so would really be interested in your thoughts. Hope you are doing well. Thanks This post has been edited by simmy114: 11/05/2012, 10:21 AM |
