[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Shady Grove Hospital is also a great option. Same NICU level as GW, not a teaching hospital, all new maternity ward. I really enjoyed my c section there. Live in upper NW DC but found the drive out to SG much easier than getting to GW (where I was in the beginning of my pregnancy).[/quote] A recent change in NICU designations means that GWU and Shady Grove are technically both III(b) NICUs. However, if my child was sick, I would go to GWU. No question. Honestly, if I went into pre-term labor before 30 weeks, I would go to GWU and take my chances, even though my own doctor is at Sibley and it would mean another OB (probably a resident) delivering. But what are the odds of you having a pre-term infant? And are you so high risk that you need the MFMs at GWU? Also, how much does the teaching hospital thing matter to you? Do you know what being at a teaching hospital means? [/quote]
