When should I go to the hospital?
It's time to come to the hospital when:
• Your bag of water breaks or you are leaking fluid
• You have a bloody discharge similar to starting your period
• Contractions occur every 4-5 minutes for over 1 hour
• Your doctor or midwife instructs you to do so
• You notice your baby not moving as much as usual
Please call us at 212-3692 before you come to the hospital. We can help you decide whether it's time for you to come in, and we can prepare for your arrival. When you arrive, we will evaluate your progress and notify your doctor or midwife.
What will my room be like?
Our private birthing suites allow mom to labor, deliver, and recover for a period of time all in the same room. Afterwards, moms will stay in the Mother Baby Unit until they are ready to go home.
Each Labor & Delivery room has a glider rocking chair, private shower & bathroom, cable tv, couch (pulls out into a bed for your support person), telephone, and birth ball.
