[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just wondering if anyone else has recent experiences to share? Due shortly and very curious for any further intel/experiences. Thanks![/quote]

I delivered a couple of weeks ago, and everything is still as described above.  You enter in the main entrance and have a COVID-19 test in triage.  They wear full PPE until your results come back, which was my entire delivery time.

They actually never did a temperature check on my husband other than at the main entrance.  Food was easy to order for both of us.

They understandably don’t want you walking around in the hall, whereas they encouraged this for my first birth.  We were released at the 24 hour mark, per our request.

We did have a hard time finding the parking garage that is in use during COVID.  There are signs, but it was night and harder to follow.  Hopefully you won’t have that issue.[/quote]

Hi -just wondering how far along was your labor when you arrived?  With my first, I arrived 7cm dilated and went through transition while in triage, then started pushing basically as soon as I got to the L&D room.  I can't imagine getting a nose swab COVID test under those circumstances (contractions were so close together they could barely get in there to check dilation, lol!).  Did you have to wear a mask during labor?  Did your husband?  I can't imagine huffing and puffing through labor in a mask  :shock:  [/quote]
