Having a scan at Hull Women and Children's Hospital (6 April 2020)
'I attended for my 20 week scan today very nervous (due to Covid-19 there are understandable measures in place which means you have to be alone) however from walking through the door all the staff are very helpful and caring.
There were two women doing the checks at the front who were both so lovely which instantly made me feel at ease.
The lady who did my scan was amazing! The baby is a wriggler and was in awkward positions but the lady persisted to reassure me she was all okay.... She made me feel so much better
I can't thank all the staff enough for still going to work everyday during these times and yet more caring than ever.
I've wrote this to thank them ♥️ and to reassure others that going alone isn't as scary as I thought it would be.'
