Yeah, this is the problem, I suppose.
There's a lot of discussion and debate about what's been going on with the rotunda.
And we've heard things talked about like insurance issues.
public contracts, employment law.
And I think the issue here is around the level of service and care that women are experiencing right now.
Like when this debate initially broke out, the journal we asked for women's experiences of the maternity care.
Yeah, like and plenty of women have had really positive experiences within the public system.
But there's a cohort of women who have had difficult journeys, be it either through fertility issues, as you were discussing today, you know, multiple miscarriages.
And they want that added bit of care.
And when you're specifically what you're saying about wanting that continuity of care, that was the message that came out.
And, you know, I was reached out to the HSE, the Department of Health, asked them, is that something that's available at the moment?
And they said, well, the aim is to facilitate a women's choice wherever possible.
It's a continuity of care is a key objective, but it's not always guaranteed within the public system that you can have consultant led care or mid midwifery care.
And, you know, that's their goal.
But you're not guaranteed to see the same person throughout your journey through pregnancy, which is why a lot of women want to pay for private, which is why women and particularly when you're, you know, like women that got in touch with us and.
To give you an example, there was one woman who had gone through several miscarriages and she had gone through the first one.
And after the second one in the public system, she asked, could I get investigations about what's going on here?
Because it had taken her a long time to even get pregnant through IVF and the rest.
So, you know, she was used to the medical process of trying to get pregnant.
And she was told, we only do investigations after your third miscarriage.
