[quote=Anonymous]I really liked Expecting Better too. For choosing a hospital, proximity was #1 for me. I also wanted to be sure to have a private room (think that's most area hospitals) and looked at available NICU in case things went wrong. I chose Washington Hospital Center because delivered with the Midwives there, and liked that most of the things I wanted were standard by the fact that there was a resident midwives group even if I didn't end up delivering with them for some reason (i.e. delayed cord clamping, immediate skin to skin, intermittent monitoring). Some people don't like "baby friendly" hospitals and would prefer somewhere with a nursery they can send the baby for a few hours to get some sleep. Hospitals currently also have different policies for visitors given COVID but hopefully by the time you deliver that will be gone. Oh - and food availability at the hospital! We ate a lot of Panera after the birth of DC1.[/quote]
