The best choice I made during my first pregnancy was to have My Midwives as my continuous care plan. My sister had a private midwife for her pregnancies so I have seen how amazing of an experience it could be and I am so so glad I did it, even with the option of free public care we have available. They are worth every cent and I will be back whenever I have my second child (hopefully for a home birth next time!)
Jenny was absolutely amazing throughout my pregnancy and I know my journey may have been quite different had I been in public care and not had her and the team to advocate for me. I felt so comfortable with Jenny and knew that she 100% supported me and my choices and would always make sure I was completely informed of options.
I had an amazing labor and birth, pretty much arriving at the hospital when it was time to push and Jenny and Michelle were instrumental in ensuring I had the natural, unmedicated birth that I wanted. We weee successful in that and I am so grateful. Unfortunately my bub needed a short stay in NICU and that is when I really saw how lucky I was to have them. Public care is obviously fantastic but having my own midwife made sure that I really knew what was happening and they advocated for me at the hospital when they knew maybe I needed a bit of assistance.
Finally, the post partum care was just a savour. Having them visit my house every day for the set time was so invaluable I never would have thought I’d need it but oh my god I did, especially with the feeding struggles I was having and being a first time mum just having someone to ask questions and advice from and knowing that bub was healthy and being weighed etc.
This care is so amazing and it just makes me sad that not everyone receives it at such a high level and a personal one. I would recommend the team to anyone having a baby no matter if it’s your first or third!
I really can’t wait (well I can, haha) to be able to go through the process again and hopefully next time have these amazing women help me deliver at home.
