I went in to labor on September 3rd with my daughter Lilly. I am a first time mom and was so scared of the labor ahead of me. I was greeted by the WORST nurse I have ever had in my life. I can't recall her name now but after the shift switch the assigned me the most AMAZING labor and delivery nurse any woman could ever have! She was attentive and gentle and so incredible. She was there every step of the way for me, explaining processes, holding my hand, encouraging me, and calming me during the scariest time of my life. For all other mothers out there I am sure you understand how incredibly important this was. At the end of my labor my doctor was running late and I panicked with fear that he was not going to make the delivery. Thank my lucky stars I had nurse Patty who is a veteran of child birthing and was able to successfully and confidently deliver my daughter because the doctor showed up about 10 minuets to late.
The rooms after delivery are big and the rest of the nursing staff was nice including my personal nurses and the nursery nurses. The Anistesiologist that put in my epidural didn't give up on me even though it seemed like an almost impossible task to do due to my weird spine.
But lets face it the real star of the whole process was Nurse Patty. Thank you nurse Patty for everything. You turly are a gurdian angel to me. Because of you, if I have any further children in the future I will be going to P.V. Hospital hopefully on a night you are working.
