Should I be scared of the NHS??

i would not have chosen to give birth back home, the treatment i got here is excellent. everybody in the maternity ward was so supportive, i have seen how they deal with women giving birth back in the philippines when my sister in law gave birth to her baby, they tend to give you lots of unnecessary things like the dextrose and oxygen with the NHS it is staightforward you push the baby comes out, you then go have a shower, a sleep and you are off home when things are ok, i would not have it any other way.

I think Maria summed it up brilliantly!
Also as mentioned before pregnancy isnt an illness and is treated as such.
I`m not an expert but i`m led to beleive that the 1st pregnancy is generally the longest and its usual for it to last more than 24hrs.
I know they dont like to perform a CS unless its really necessary as apose to the " too posh to push " scenario!
You`ll be fine so don`t worry ok?
