Judy Jenkins, community midwife, has been fantastic - supportive, accommodating and very knowledgeable, The midwife sonographers at Darlington were very happy to talk through everything they were doing and what this meant in terms of the baby's growth and development, Our experience with the two 'normal' sonographers was not as good, They seemed to lack empathy, were unwilling to explain what they were doing, I was not allowed to see my baby for 5-10 mins on my 12 week scan,

The care I received post - natal has been absolutely fantastic. The midwives on the delivery suite and labour ward were wonderful however the service I have had from the community team has been exceptional. As a new mum it can be daunting bringing your baby home, however I felt fully supported by an excellent team who I trusted. I would like to pay thanks inparticular to the community MCA's. I found breastfeeding very difficult at the beginning but both MCA's were there to offer help, support and encouragement through a very challenging time for me. 7 weeks later and I think I've cracked it but it wouldn't have been without their help. Darlington should be very proud of the care they offer to new parents throughout the whole.
