Dear women, pay attention! Do not give birth in this hospital yourself. I actually live in Eindhoven and had the choice of Catharina Hospital or Maxima Hospital in Veldhoven to give birth. On the Open Day of Maxima Hospital I was manipulated by all praise and lies and I chose Maxima Hospital. Errors started at the beginning of the recording. I didn't get a wristband with name and date (they forgot to do it). I was pricked 4 times for an IV. Then they absolutely did not follow my Birth Plan. Which was very important to me as a patient. I had asked no interns or trainees. They finally had me squeezed by an intern, which was completely wrong. I mis-squeezed for 1 hour which led to exhaustion. Then a midwife came (after 1 hour only an obstetrician, not even a gynecologist came) and mii explained clearly what to do. I knew then that I had not been instructed by a midwife all this time. I pressed for another 30min so that I could stay out by caesarean section. My son was taken out with a vacuum pump and my pelvis were torn. After childbirth I became rude to walk forced through the nursing while I said I was in a lot of pain. "no don't appoint come walk because you have to go home asap". I was forced to walk with tears running down my cheeks in pain. Later after a photo it turned out that I had a fracture between my pelvis. The doctor indicated that I should not stand / walk abosolute. I walked on crutches for two weeks! In addition, I was unable to urinate properly when I was discharged from the hospital. All the while I still had a catheter on my side. However, nursing fired me without being able to urinate properly. At home my bladder was so full that my midwife didn't trust it and sent me back to the hospital. Suddenly 5L urine came out. My bladder was damaged again and I had to wear a catheter again (which is very painful and annoying). I am very angry with all that happens in that careless hospital and I have also filed a complaint. This way I want to protect other women from this stupid Hospital. Don't believe what is said in that open day. You do not see all those people speaking there during your delivery. You only see the rude nurses and interns.
