I'm now about halfway through my pregnancy and although I myself have been feeling not too bad, I am completely disgusted by the way my hospital have done some things.
They have so much people coming in & out, we're all numbers and I am made to feel like I'm a nuisance.
I have also been completely ignored in regard to my test results for bloods and urine, although I had been told they would call me. They took my mobile, and still have heard nothing but have given me no contact number.
They also advised me to get downs screening done, but failed to tell me about this increasing the risk of miscarriage so quite frankly after talking to my partner about it we've agreed to look for a private health care.
I know it's quite common now, so I was wondering if anyone had any advice and past experiences they could share with me?
Also a rough price, I know everyone has a different price and I'll need to call but just a rough idea would be good (:
Also, who are good companies to go with for the health care and who offers what benefits?
Any advice at all would be great! Thanks
(Will award a best answer if I get replies :D)

don't really have advice apart from talk to your midwife about how you are feeling but i was feeling the same when i had my first baby. pregnancy was difficult i had to take mat leave early from work due to back problems i then developed blood high pressure so when the big day came i got induced the when i got to 3cm i had been taken to get my waters broken then got rushed for emergency.
everything was fine till after i had my daughter i was taken to the recover room at about 9pm don't know how long i was in there for but you know how you get the bed bath WELL 2 nurses just stood over me lifting my limbs and cleaning like i was a bit of furniture not even talking to me and they wouldn't even let my partner stay with me through this :( i felt sooo bad and discus ting i cried as soon as they left for about 20 mins.
When i was taken down to the ward later that night they told my pertner that he had to go home as it was past visiting times, my baby was taken to the nursery and i was abruptly woken up at 6:30 in the morning with "here is your baby she needs a feed"
neadless to say i will be a bit nervous about having my 2nd baby there.

Is it wrong to shackle illegal aliens to the bed when birthing anchor babies?
Self-Hatin
Juana Villegas has been awarded $200,000 for her mistreatment by local authorities, and Chacon's case has been part of an investigation by the Department of Justice concerning the role of local agencies in federal immigration proceedings.
When I was in bed, I was begging the sheriff, 'Please let me free -- at least one hand,' and he said, no, he didn't want to," Juana Villegas said in an interview with a local Nashville television station. She was describing the experience of being shackled to her hospital bed as she went into labor. Villegas gave birth in the sheriff's custody, after she was stopped by local police while driving without a valid license.
According to Elliott Ozment, Villegas's lawyer, driving without a license is generally handled with a citation, not an arrest. He believes Villegas was only brought in because she was an undocumented immigrant.
Like Villegas, Alma Chacon, and Miriam Mendiola-Martinez gave birth in the United States shackled to their hospital beds, without their husbands, and in the presence of a prison guard. They also were not violent criminals, but rather, they were all undocumented and charged with an immigration-related offense in Sheriff Arpaioâs jurisdiction of Maricopa County, Arizona.
Cases such as these have garnered outrage from immigrant rights advocates. Critics take aim at both the legal classification of immigration-related offenses and the standards of prioritizing undocumented mothers' rights at the state and federal level.
VICTIMS OF A BROKEN SYSTEM
While many immigration violations are civil cases, ICE classifies some undocumented immigrants as criminals when they are apprehended for certain immigration-related offenses. One of those is "re-entry after deportation."
"To ICE, re-entry after deportation is not an immigration case, that is a criminal case," explained Melissa Brané, director of the Detention and Asylum program at the Women's Refugee Commission. "They've criminalized being undocumented; the act of entering after being deported is now a crime. You're in the criminal system, and ICE will say they don't have any authority over it," Brané said in a phone interview with HuffPost LatinoVoices.
Although the Bureau of Prisons instituted an anti-shackling policy in federal correctional facilities in 2007, state correctional facilities are still free to shackle inmates before, during and after child delivery if they see fit.
Shackling during childbirth is illegal in 14 states and is against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) policy. But women being held for immigration-related offenses classified as "criminal offenses" can still legally be handcuffed to their hospital beds by state authorities in the 36 other states. Those women can also be denied the right to have a family member in the birthing room, or to hold their newborns for longer than 24 hours.
Malika Saada Saar, executive director of The Rebecca Project's Anti-Shackling Coalition, believes that state authorities should take into account the circumstances under which pregnant women with undocumented status are put in behind bars. "These mothers are not prosecuted criminals, but simply mothers detained for lack of documentation," Saar said in a phone interview.
Miriam Mendiola-Martinez gave birth to a baby boy on Dec. 21, 2010, in Maricopa County, Arizona. She did so chained to her hospital bed and without any family members present. Mendiola-Martinez had been found using false documents in order to obtain work.
Her newborn son was taken from her within 48 hours of his birth and given to a family member, according to an interview Mendiola-Martinez gave to New American Media. Her attorney, David Black, said in the same interview that if Mendiola-Martinez had not been undocumented, she could have been released on bond before she gave birth, as is the case with women charged with other nonviolent crimes. Under Arizona state law, however, possession of false documents is grounds for denying the right to post bail.
Alma Chacon and Juana Villegas, while residing in Arizona and Tennessee respectively, gave birth under similiar circumstances. Chacon was detained for a non-violent criminal offense and shackled to her hospital bed. Chacon was allegedly not allowed to nurse or hold her baby until she was released from immigration custody almost 70 days later when she gave birth in .
For Juana Villegas, going into labor while in prison meant that her ankles were cuffed together on the ride to the hospital, and that she was denied a breast pump by local authorities after she was given one by medical professionals. Without a breast pump, "she was in great pain" after she gave birth and had trouble sleeping in prison, Ozment, her attorney, said in a phone interview.
Answer
Elliott Ozment, left out Mrs. Villegas, who is 33, has lived in the United States since 1996 she was deported in 1996, but she returned illegally to the United States 10 days later... On July 3, 2008,.. Since Senorita Villegas had 3 children â 2, 11 and 14..
Since Senorita Villegas was in the country illegally, it is easy to say, each birth she had was paid for by the taxpayers of America.Back then it would ran up to at least $10,000. More if she needed a c-section.More if special care and things like that if the baby wasn't in perfect health. Then there is the before and after care, that will run into thousands of dollars. Lab work can run an easy $ 800.00 a pop From what is said, she did not have a job,she had a 6th grade education, based on that she did not have employment to care and provide for 3 kids and now 4 kids. She has her kids on medicaid which with low income guidelines everything would be free of charge. I would venture to say Senorita Villegas had received well over 100,000 in free medical care up to 2008. It never says anything about the husband which means he must be illegal or he might be wanted for something himself. He made sure nobody knew who he was. Her civil rights do not include infringing on my civil rights by getting free medical care.
