KCH Maternity

Hi there!

Has anyone / anyone's partner had a baby recently at King's? I'm due next month and just looking for some local personal opinion on how it went, what the ward/ midwife led unit was like, what interventions were offered or pushed?

Any info greatly received.

Thanks so much!

My wife had a baby at Kings last August and the care was second to none. She wasn?t in the suite as she had to be induced - but the midwives were all superb.

If you join the east dulwich mums group on Facebook there?s loads of discussion about this so you might find it helpful.

2 babies at kings, first difficult and they undoubtably saved both our lives.

All interventions were needed and appropriate and frankly without them we would have had a much worse outcome.

Had a baby there august last year

Needed interventions and baby had a little time in NICU but the care I had throughout was outstanding and deffo planning to go there again with baby n.o2 in the future.
