[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Definitely stay away from GW if you don't want an urban teaching hospital atmosphere![/quote]

I delivered there with the OBs, not the midwives, in March. I hated the teaching hospital aspect far more than I expected. Highly recommend you avoid.[/quote]

+2 all of this, except January.  The teaching aspect was borderline traumatic for me, actually (resident messed up my epidural and then the attending tried 4 times to fix it -- not great when "needle in my spine" was my biggest fear coming in), and made my follow-up appointments with students/residents observing really uncomfortable.  I didn't mind the midwives-in-training during prenatal care, but now it makes me really on edge to have them in the room.  I'm pretty much done forever having someone use me as a practice run.

That said, I had really good nurses in L&D, and found the rooms really comfortable both for delivery and recovery.  But if we have another kid I'm probably going to go to Sibley if there's no reason to suspect complications.[/quote]
