Pregnancy and birth

Posted By Mjdw213

"Pregnancy and birth"

About: Bunbury Hospital / Maternity

(as the patient),

My pregnancy was assisted by the MGP group in Bunbury, we had 1 midwife through our 39 weeks which made all the difference we weren’t constantly meeting someone new to build a connection with. Having the 1 midwife through it all made our experience enjoyable and that little bit more special! I wish my experience for all new mums, I could not have been more happy and greatful for the MGP group, our midwife always made us feel comfortable to ask questions, and when it came into birth she was an amazing support base and always knew the right things to say and assisting my partner and caring for him too. I believe you can tell when a midwife loves their job and cares for the people they are looking after. Based on my experience, I will forever in a day recommend my midwife and MGP group/bunbury hospital to all women.

Dear Mjdw213

Thank you for sharing your experience with the Midwifery Group Practice (MGP) team at Bunbury. It is wonderful to hear how much the continuity of care throughout your pregnancy, birth and postnatal journey meant to you and your family.

We are delighted that having the same midwife throughout your pregnancy helped you build a trusting relationship and made your experience feel more personal, comfortable and special. Developing these strong connections is one of the key benefits of the MGP model, and it is heartening to hear how supported you felt every step of the way.

It is especially pleasing to know that your midwife created an environment where you felt comfortable asking questions, provided exceptional support during labour and birth, and also took the time to support your partner. Pregnancy and birth are significant family experiences, and it is wonderful to hear that both of you felt so well cared for.

Your comments about your midwife's compassion, dedication and love for her profession are greatly appreciated. Feedback such as yours reflects the values and commitment of our maternity teams and the positive impact they have on the families they care for.

Thank you for your kind words and for recommending the MGP program, Bunbury Hospital and your midwife to other women. We will be pleased to share your feedback with the MGP team and acknowledge the excellent care they provide.

We wish you and your family every happiness as you enjoy this precious time together.

Kind regards,

Karen Horsley
Service Co-Director Stream B
