So, this is it. Your big day is here. In your “go” bag you’ve packed everything you need for yourself and your new baby, including your registration forms, toiletries, robe, breastfeeding bra and breast cream. When you arrive at the hospital already in labor, you will register through our Emergency Department and, from there, be escorted to our Labor and Delivery Department. If you arrive for a scheduled C-section, you will check in at the Admissions desk in the front lobby of the main hospital building.
When you arrive, register and are settled into one of our 12 well-appointed, attractive birthing rooms, you will meet our specially trained obstetrical nurses who will be with you and your labor coach every step of the way. Each of our new, secure labor and delivery rooms has a private bathroom, complete with a shower and hairdryer, television, CD player and comfortable seating area. You will stay here to labor, deliver and bond with your new baby during the initial period of recovery, up to ninety minutes after the delivery. Anesthesiologists will be standing by in case you need anesthesia.
| Visitor Information for Labor and Delivery Who you choose to have present during the birthing process is your personal choice. In addition to your labor coach, we can usually accommodate up to three visitors. Children can stay, but they must have their own adult support person with them at all times and they are counted in the total number of visitors allowed. Should you require a Cesarean Section you may have one support person with you for both the delivery and recovery. |
