[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think your reasoning is flawed because it fails to recognize that YOUR EXPERIENCE could, unfortunately, be chaotic and require immediate emergency care. In my experience, the only chaos that I experienced delivering at Sibley was when I needed an emergency C-Section and neo-natal specialists, etc, because baby was technically a preemie (and to be clear, there was no yelling, fussing -- just some quick decision making and everyone was VERY calm and reassuring). Before that, I wouldn't have even know anyone else was in the hospital. I think in my 4 day stay I saw one other patient passing in the hallway when I was up walking a couple days post surgery. [/quote] Very similar experience. The hospital I used had amazing sound proofing in the walls. I never saw or heard another pregnant woman until I was transferred to post partum. HOWEVER, during delivery, my baby became distressed. As soon as his oxygen stats dropped, my room erupted with doctors and nurses. They got him stable, and told me that I might get an emergency section. His O2 stats dropped again. Positioning didn’t help, so they wisked me away to the OR for a c-section. Baby was delivered one minute after surgery began and was non-responsive. Thank GOODNESS for the NICU. He’s 100% healthy with no ill effects. Someone I know used a doula at a birthing center, and her baby has permanent damage from birth trauma that could have been prevented if she’d been getting modern treatment.[/quote]
