Midwife, GP and Obstetrician Recommendations & DiscussionLooking for a Midwife, GP or Obstetrician? Have you had a great or bad experience? Let other members know what was so good about your carer and in which area(s) they are located. Ask any healthcare provider related questions here.
I think it depends on your area. For me, no. Simply put I was told if I went private myself and my girls would be in the public hospital anyway as the private hospital here doesnt have a SCBU/NICU.

I also think it depends on the 'high risk'... I can understand the pre-eclampsia risk and say, birth trauma, but if you're being called high risk because of an 11lb baby it's a bit unfair... Are you UTD again? xoxox

Is the cost worth it for high risk pregnancies and birth?
