Visiting policy for Methodist at TMC?

AmyFTM

Anybody know the visiting policy? Specifically for children? Is it limited to siblings only? The website and what we were told during our tour are conflicting. I could call and ask but I'm sure I'll get a third conflicting view... anybody deliver there and can elaborate? Thanks!

I was never limited on visitors.  Right after having DD I had 5 adults and 1 child in my room... like within an hour of her birth (not counting DH). I didn't have any issues at all with DD visiting DD in July of 2010.  A friend brought her 4 year old twins too and we had no issues.  

I will say that this time of year they're more strict about it if RSV and other illnesses are rampant they might limit visitors to children over 12.  

Be sure that every single person that plans to visit has a valid ID, they require it (children are of course exempt). If I was in your position I'd call the hospital and ask about their current policy on kids visiting.
