Just got home from our hospital's L&D tour and they have really neat practices here. First, you can have 3 support people in the room for labor delivery and recovery (all in the same room). 2 hours after delivery they take you to the postpartum ward for 2 (or 3 for c/s) days and you have a private room with an extra bed for whomever you want to stay with you the whole time (my Mommy ) The baby stays in the same room with you the whole time, and everything the nurses do (except circumcision) is done right in the room. They stressed that their goal is teaching you to care for the baby so you are ready to go home as confident as can be.

I really feel MUCH better knowing more of what to expect. And I confirmed that I have already pre-registered. Whew!
