Absolutely disgusted with my hospital! Rang triage and they said they were closed and I can't get to any other hospital as they are too far so the woman on the phone told me I'll have to cross my legs and cope with constant intense pains and reduced movements until triage opens again! How fucking dare she?! If there's anything wrong with my baby or I go into labour it's on her head! 😡😡
Me neither but apparently there is! I'm here now and I've put a complaint in xx @street29
I didn't even think there was such thing as a closed triage!
It's ridiculous! And I will thanks ladies xx @sweetsesame @jetrum @kerrieann
@courtniegeexo, you know your body babe so just call the ambulance and say your in agony I need help your pregnant and that you can't cope xxxx
I can't believe they do things like this tbh, you could be at serious risk and they are just ignoring until they are open
I'll have to! It will be the 5th time if I go in again! It's pretty obvious she's not happy in there other wise I wouldn't be in severe pain constantly xx @kerrieann
@courtniegeexo, if it gets that bad call ambulance girl someone will have to see you then xxxx
I'm trying triage every 10 minutes just incase but if they don't re-open soon I'll have to go A&E and I'm glad I got her name tbh xx @jetrum
:( I'd just try them anyway! if the pain is that bad then that's what A&E are there for... surely they can't refuse you an ambulance if you call 999. I would defo put a complaint in about that comment the cow of a woman said to you as well! how dare she xxx
Midwife said A&E will do same thing I've done so got to keep trying triage. I'm absolutely fuming and stressing out xx @jetrum
that's awful! Is there an A&E department where triage is? can you get to an A&E department? if you can you need to go. If you can't get there then call 111 again and say you need to be seen! or if the pain is that bad I would call 999 and ask for an ambulance to take you to A&E! it's disgusting what she has said to you and it seems you do need to be seen. Hope you get some help xx
I know! I'm glad I got her name though I'll be making a complaint in the morning! And A&E can't do anything but ring triage and they will tell them same thing my midwife said I've got to keep trying triage xx @sweetsesame
That is disgusting! What if you walked into the A&E department? Tell them you tried triage and they are closed but you are concerned and can't bare the pain?
wow :/ that's really bad!! being pregnant you feel vulnerable anyway so they should be helping you and not making you suffer!!
They will tell me to ring triage they did last time x @mimibear
I've rung triage and labour ward and I can't get to a hospital 10miles away so they aren't interested xx @mimibear
I'm a student nurse and when I was in pain while on placement I went straight to a&e X they then took me to the maternity hospital in an ambulance. If the pain is that bad you need to see a professional!! x
I'm in tears because of this 😭 these pains are horrendous 😭xx @mummywarwick
I rang labour ward they said same thing "go to another hospital triage is closed and we won't accept you your not in labour" getting really annoyed and stressed out 😭😭 xx @mummywarwick @han3816
Phone labour ward or go to A&E and make sure you put a complaint in. If midwife has finished work chances are she won't answer. Make a note of the time you called if you can remember xXx
Phone the labour ward see what they say if not put in a complaint xx
It's disgusting she put me on hold for 15 minutes and then told me to either go to another hospital or keep my legs crossed and cope with the pain until triage re-opens. I'm absolutely fuming and my midwife isn't answering either xx @han3816
They always tell me to phone the labour ward straight away not go through other people xx
I'm fuming and it isn't helping me atm😭xx @briony1994
That's disgusting!! She cannot just say that to you😡😡
Yeah I did and she said I have to go to another hospital and when I said I can't get there she told me to keep my legs crossed and cope with the pains until they reopen 😡😡 absolutely disgusted and if anything happens to me or baby I will be going mad with the hospital xx @briony1994
What the hell!!! Did you get her name!!! Go to a&e or labour ward or abc unit, you need to go somewhere to get checked but the way she handled that is totally wrong! She could of at least advised you where to go!!
I still haven't packed my hospital bags 😩😩😔😔
Is it rude to not want anyone at the hospital?
I was just informed that my MIL wants to be waiting at the hospital so as soon as I pop out the baby she can rush in to be with the baby. I am really a private person and dont really want anyone at the hospital when I give birth (except my husband). I was planning on calling all the family to come to the hospital once I was all cleaned up and ready for visitors. Am I being rude? How do I tell them I dont want visitors a minute after pushing out...
I forgot how annoying these hospitals be like dam u just walking in waking my baby up 😡
I'm convinced I'm going to go into labour at any minute.....I'm having contraction but they're stopping and starting. Yesterday i was having contractions all morning then by the time I got to triage to be monitored they stopped. Now this morning I was sat having breakfast with my son and they started again. But more intense and longer lasting this time. My question is do I phone triage now or do I just wait to see what happens. I feel like I'm wasting their time always ringing etc

Ladies I would like to introduce my babygirl. Came to the hospital and was having full blown contractions and doctor decided to operate me. My delivery was so painful I felt everything.
