Maternity unit Vic

Hi 👋 it's been 14 years since I had my last baby. Both my eldest kids were born at Forth Park. I'm just wondering what the ward is like in the Vic? Is it shared or do you get your own room? I'm having a c section in 2 weeks 😊🩷

I just got discharged last night. I spent a night up in the maternity unit where I think is where you’d go after c section. You get your own room with toilet shower etc. and visitors are allowed 7am-2:30 and 4:30-9pm. There’s a pull out bed which doesn’t look the comfiest but don’t quote me on that because my husband went home that night so it was just me and baby. ☺️

Awww amazing 😊 thank you so much and congratulations on little one ❤️❤️

I had my own room too for 5 days but unsure if everyone does or I was just lucky. Staff are amazing but understaffed

I think it’s pot luck if you get your own room or not. Sometimes people are put in the ward, other times you get a room. I think it just depends on how busy they are x

You get your own room for induction/delivery. Then once you've delivered the ward has bays of 4 or single rooms and it's just what's available when you are moved postnatal 😀 x

It just depends on space. My first we were in high dependency then on the ward both of which were shared. With my second we got our own room (own bathroom, on space etc) just depends on what space they have for you. Hope everything goes well and you and you're beautiful baby are okay 💜💜

I had an emergency section & had my own room for 4 days. Good luck, the staff were amazing (in my experience) and I felt so at home!

Thanks everyone 😊🩷 I'm so excited to meet her now. Just want her here safe and sound 🩷
