Stupid Northside L&D question

Ok, so when I went to the hospital to deliver Benjamin I drove myself as I was sent there from my OB's office for monitoring.  I parked in the regular parking lot and walked myself on in the regular women's center entrance.  We were never able to go on the hospital tour because our first tour was cancelled due to the freak snow storm that year and I delivered before we had a chance to take the make-up tour.

Fast forward to now. I just commented to DH that I have absolutely no clue what to do in a normal labor situation as in my water breaks at home and DH drives us to the hospital.  Is there a specific women's center entrance for women in labor or do I just walk in the regular entrance again or go through the ER?

  • Your DH can drop you off in the roundabout where it says "Women's Center."  All signs point to this location!  It's right across from the entrance to the parking deck, and if it's really a touch-and-go situation, there's even parking right at the door where DH can leave the car till after the baby's born.

  • There is a special entrance--it's one floor above where you leave with the baby.  Big Circle Driveway---DH usually drops me off and than goes and parks the car in the garage.

  • Whoops, meant to say it has a big sign that says "Labor and Delivery!"

  • Thanks much ladies!  That's what I thought but I wanted to have something in mind to calm DH down.
  • Actually, he can pull the car up to that roundabout, put on the hazard lights and go inside with you to get checked in.  They will not tow him if he leaves the hazards on.
