That is a really positive experience, and that lady must have had a very caring midwife looking after her. I am pleased she had a healthy baby after her really sad time.
I feel the same, and hope I can be that way when I am faced with this situation.

She said that not only was it the care she was given, but also the fact that she had laboured and given birth vaginally meant that she knew she had the strength to cope again, as she had coped with that. When I wrote my personal statement for uni, I referred to women/ midwives/ situations that had inspired me... I was really referring to her, and the midwife that had provided her care - if I can reach that level when I train then I'll be proud! x |
