Re: WAS Scan Update from Jenni - Now independent midwives

[Guest guest]

Vicki, thank you for this - I've taken a look at the website and found it

very interesting and helpful. Also your experience of contacting the

supervisor midwife at the hospital gave me food for thought.

I'm actually in rural west Berkshire, and have a choice of Oxford, Swindon,

Reading or Basingstoke Hospitals in which to have my baby. Last time I went

to the Radcliffe in Oxford which appeared to be well regarded locally.

It's a very busy hospital though, so I don't know how possible it would be

to meet the midwifery team that would deliver me - but I think it's

something I will ask about.

Going back to your point about recommendations of independent midwifes - can

anyone recommend one local to me?! Or had any experience of Thames Valley

Midwifes (think that is what they were called) who seemed to be the most

local from the independent midwifes website.

Thanks again, Kate
