    I had both my babies there and I highly recommend the RBWH maternity ward + birth suite staff and facilities. Every staff member I met was supportive, helpful and kind. During my babies' births, my midwives coached and guided me through relatively quick and easy deliveries. They took great care of me after as well. I did not have my mum with me, and some of the older midwives were wonderful with showing me how to change my bub - practicing on a doll beforehand doesn't prepare you for how tiny and fragile they are! - how to wrap, bath and breastfeed bub. With my first bub, my room mate had had a ceasar, and was in a lot of pain. The midwives were so kind and patient - checking on her every hour, offering blankets + meds, etc - they even bathed her and helped her brush and plait her hair. With my second bub, she didn't stop crying for the first 24 hours and the lovely staff took her for a few hours in the nursery so I could have some sleep. There were also some problems with her feeding, and I was distraught but the midwives helped me through it with patience and kindness. And after I went home, I received a visit from a midwife about 2 weeks later to check that I was coping OK. I was also able to access the Tummy Toning + exercise classes run by the hospital's physio dept - I could bring bub along and get some exercise, and meet other mums as well. Two of my girlfriends have had their babies there and have had similar positive experiences.

    These amazing people saved me and my daughter. We had an extreme prem and had she been born anywhere else, she would not have lived. Their service is second to none. Of course I am forever bias and thankful for their care they provided to my now happy bouncy baby. We were there for 3 months and I can not recall any staff member that I could not recommend. And the facility is second to none. What these people can do is absolutely humbling. From the Directors through to the orderlies and cleaners - they all always had a smile for me and the other mums. This is a world class facility with medical breakthrough technology and practices saving lives and countless hopeless cases (like my 24weeker). I am forever grateful and am determined to have my next child there.

    We booked in with the RBWH for the birth of our child. The staff were generally great right up to the wonderful surgery staff. Some of the midwives were brilliant and gentle, and others were inexperienced and hurt my wife. Once her ceasar was over, and she went to the wards it all went backwards. She was unable to move and was put onto a manual bed. They brought out lunch for her, put it on the table and nobody answered the bell to help for 2 hours. There were nights when midwives didn't bother to check on my wife at all or help her at all. She was so exhausted and really needed the help, and on the last night she was on hospital she almost dropped the baby out of exhaustion while waiting for help. She went to the tea room to find the night staff gossiping and eating instead of helping mothers. We asked the next day to be discharged as we were horrified with what happened. Other mothers there had similar problems.
