My newborn son and I came here as he had some complications after the birth. The place is great for newborns, specially those with special care requirements. Mothers however are not looked after nor supported. I ended up having a hysteria after sleepless nights, lack of food and i also developed a cripping neckpain. My husband got us out and i went to an emergency at Auguste Viktoria Krankenhause. St Joseph's moto is to "force" mothers into breast-feeding, while not even checking if she is doing it right, if the nipples are ok etc. my son was sucking blood out of my nipples every 20 min. I gave up on breast-feeding, while i am sure I would have breast-fed if I was directed properly.
I am now pregnant with our 2nd child and I am booking either West-end or Martin Luther hospital. Both are said to be great for babies and mothers. read more
