If you can avoid this hospital do it!

I just had a rather chaotic pregnancy and childbirth at this facility. For the first time it is difficult to live.

During my pregnancy I had gestational diabetes. After the explanatory day I have an appointment with a diabetologist from the hospital who takes me to meet you not even 3 minutes and told me to start insulin at 2 months of pregnancy then ends up "if there is a problem go back to meeting "! So we put a pregnant woman under insulin without knowing what is his diet and if corrections are to be made and we do not monitor the rest of this insulin .... So I did not follow his advice, I am go see a private diabetologist who gave me time, set up a proper diet and I did not need insulin.

The day I arrive at the hospital with an opening to 5. So I followed the advice of midwives to arrive late because we have time when it is the first. The only thing I had not thought of was having to wait behind the maternity emergency door for 45 minutes with my contractions and my pain because "too many deliveries tonight so no time to take us in charge ".

When I am in charge, I am asked if I want an epidural. I answer yes. I am asked, two hours later I begin to feel great pain I'm reinjected product and then again a few hours after and finally a fourth dose of horse a few hours later. It is true that I was asked if I wanted them to feel more pain but I am not a doctor and I do not know where are the limits tolerated by the insulin body what is good or bad for the baby and when you're in pain and you're tired of work, you think more. Small parenthesis are four doctor anesthetist and nurse anesthetists that I saw tonight so never the same to follow my case.

After my fourth injection I see arrive a gynecologist and two interns who explain to me that the heart of baby weakens and so must check that everything is fine. The internal is repeated several times before arriving to take a sample which is far from reassuring. Especially when you hear "no I can not do it" and you are typing in the crotch. You are especially afraid for your baby.

20 minutes after everyone arrives in the room and I am told that we leave urgently for a caesarean section. At that moment I can not contain my tears anymore. Caesarean section is performed and once again the intern says "I can not get it out". The doctor takes things in hand and takes my child out except that ... No crying ... And we take it directly ( because liquid tinkled but I did not know it) and a person in the room said "he's gone, I know now that we did not talk about my son but on the moment the shock is such that I have the impression that the world stops.

The midwife finally comes to announce me that my son is well and there beginning of a reaction to an anesthetic I start to shake my whole body which will last two hours.

Back in the room I am happy to be with my son and my husband but the stomach pain is very present. I can not get up and the urinary catheter prevents me anyway. I want to breastfeed even at night but can not get up and having a stomach ache I ask if my husband can stay to help me. It is a categorical no.

After all the anguish of this birth I do not even have my husband at night to accompany me. A midwife offers me to take my son as a nurse for the night. How could I say no, I am too sick to feed my son. When I tell her that I want her to take me every time to feed him I see that it annoys him and she tells me that pipette milk is just as good.

I stayed 5 days and will never go back!
