Ooops- I am not very good at following this thread and hopefully Cheria, you had a great experience at the Bohler already. My experience was rather mixed but (1) It knocked the socks off the NHS experience and I'd definitely go back (2) I was the only one in my baby group to have any complaints (3) I was admitted on one of the busiest days they had all year (I got the last bed on the maternity ward).
I was admitted twice - once when they thought I was in labour and two days later to be induced. The first admission wasn't great - they had three very painful attempts at inserting the cannula in my arm (one still hurts five months on) and left the last attempt in all night, which was the main reason I chose to go home the next day. They wouldn't let me eat anything just in case I needed to be induced the next day so I was very hungry. However the induction / birth itself was really great - the care couldn't have been better, the nurse was very careful about the cannula, they let me have a walking epidural although they don't normally do that and they were just overall lovely.
I ended up spending around a week post-birth in the hospital. It's incredibly well equipped and clean - all the rooms have a big supply of pampers, a fancy change mat and one of those baby warmer thingies. Anything you need - nipple shields, breast pump, towels for baby, formula (the expensive bottled sort), good quality clothes to borrow and a grobag for the baby, even baby wipes, is all provided without charge. The food is great (the staff eat at the same canteen) - better than some of the Kirchberg restaurants in the area. Your DP / DH can stay in your room if you have a single room (there's a charge for this though). If you want, the staff will also take the baby for a few hours to let you get some sleep.
There are lots of people floating around for you which is both a plus and a minus. A typical day included a visit from the obstetrician, the shift nurse, the physio (these post-birth sessions are just great) plus the odd drop in from the lactation consultant, the photographer and the relaxation consultant. Add the daily room clean and in the mornings it feels like a revolving door - and hanging the do not disturb sign out didn't help much !
What sucked for me was support with breastfeeding. DS had trouble latching on as well as jaundice, which meant he didn't wake up to feed. The nurses basically left me alone for two days (though they were unusually full when I was admitted) and didn't give much needed advice (eg put him to feed regularly), which meant that my milk didn't come in for five days. By that stage we were mixed feeding and when I went home we were basically told that we were doing the wrong thing by insisting that it would be possible for me to breastfeed (long history of severe allergies on both sides of the family notwithstanding...). I heard after from several sources, mostly Luxembourgers, that Bohler does not offer the best support if you run into trouble breastfeeding. On the other hand, I am not sure that Duchesse is so much better.
The other thing that sucked is that the night shift staff, especially on weekends, are mostly French / Belgians and insisted on speaking French. Just to be clear - I'm not a monolingual expat in a bubble, I speak German, I understand Luxembourgish (both also official languages..) and I have some degree of French, just not the level of French to understand someone barging into my room uninvited at 3am and taking 45 mins to explain an expressing routine to me, especially when this person knows I don't speak French and I find out that this person speaks excellent English (grrrrrr). Mind you, I suspect that a disagreement with the nightshift is common in many countries, not just Lux. Something to do with sleep deprivation and hormones...
