[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]By the amount of women screaming when I gave birth there, I'd think that there are more than a few who choose to go unmedicated. [b]It's notorious for c-sections because of certain doctors and the clientele.[/b] Not all doctors are lazy and are interested in doing "emergency" c-sections. I delivered vaginally twice there, and both times had "complications" that probably would have been "emergency" c-sections if I had a more risk adverse OB. [/quote] This, and not even necessarily the doctors, but the fact that the demographics for this hospital skew toward people who ultimately end up having c-sections. I didn't have a natural birth at Sibley, but I did deliver there and I had a fine experience (including a stint in the NICU (aka "special care nursery"). There's nothing glamorous about giving birth or being in a hospital and I don't understand the Sibley hate on DCUM. It ain't gonna be a 5 start hotel. It served its purpose, and I can't complain about my experience. Had some good nurses, and a few really great nurses. The NICU team was fabulous.[/quote]
