Hospital Visit


Last week, we went for a tour at St. John's Medical Center in Santa Monica. We are planning on having the baby there - I have heard from two other ladies that it is a great place and from the visit I would have to agree. They have a new wing for women's health, and the Labor Unit is like a little condo complex versus a hospital. It is cozy, you get your own room for the labor and birth and the baby stays with you. Within two hours of having the baby, you are then moved to another private room for the duration of your stay...and again, the baby stays with you the whole time!

I really liked the place and hope everything works out with insurance and what not (Tim and I both have our own business which is proving that we will be paying a lot of pocket for the birth). But my mother, who was with me, said the place is amazing and I will want the most comfortable place to give birth. I think I will take her advice!
