AlishaMay · March 2009

Hi Ladies,

It seems like this question gets asked a lot, so it got me thinking that it deserves a poll. Hopefully this will become a useful resource to one and all Big Smile

We are going to deliver up at Fairview Wyoming. I work for Fairview so due to insurance, this is our best coverage. We live in Blaine and so my 2 closest options were Riverside or Wyoming. I have been to Riverside many times and it feels too cramped and hectic with all of the traffic and construction. The Wyoming hospital is newer and smaller and has free parking!! We have been very pleased with our OB and the birth classes so I have no fears about delivering there.

I'll be delivering our first at Woodwinds.

Fairview Northland...closest to my house.

I voted for Mercy but could've voted for Other too.

I delivered my first son at Fairview Riverside and my second at Mercy. I liked both of them, very much - no complaints.

We're going to Fairview Riverside. So far they've been really great.

We're doing Methodist. Their birthing suites are beautiful and state of the art.

And, it's close to our house!

Fairview Southdale - it's right across from my OBGYN

Payne2B2008 · March 2009

Fairview Southdale only 15mins from my home (plus this is where I was born)

My first two were born at Unity and this one will be as well. I love the staff and the fact that you recover in a different wing of the hospital than the labor ward. The last thing you want is to hear other women laboring all night while you are trying to sleep! The rooms are all private with their own bathrooms, you have the option of rooming in or leaving the baby in the nursery. I love the safety measures that are taken to protect you and baby from anything and everything. I also love that the rooms are just big enough for a few visitors at a time- you do NOT want to have a room large enough to throw a party- you are going to want your rest!

We're going to Saint Joseph's in DT Saint Paul. I was born there and it's 5 minutes from where we live, if that.

jenluke · March 2009

We are going to deliever at Unity Hospital because it is very close, and also because that is where I was born as well as my brothers. I tried to look up birthing classes with no luck until july-ish and that is too late, so i would start looking early:)

I delivered both mine at Fairview Wyoming and absolutely loved it. My mom delivered two of my brothers and me at Unity and had no complaints. Plus I know many others who were happy with Unity. I've never met anyone who liked Mercy.

We delivered our first at Abbott because of Childrens Hospital and it was really nice, everyone was great and the food was good too.

Our son was born at Mercy and everyone was awesome there.

You forgot all the HealthEast hospitals. St Johns, St Josephs, and Woodwinds. They are all excellent hospitals. I delivered at St Joes and had an absolutely wonderful experience. I had a very difficult delivery and they kept the scary parts away from me so I could focus on what I needed to do. Only after the delivery did I know all the details. I had a very severe case of Pre-E and my kidneys and lungs were shutting down and they kept me calm and at ease until they could fix it. If I had panicked it would have made everything so much worse.

My son was perfect and I healed up nicely.

SoonToBeMrsWard · April 2009

I will be delivering at Woodwinds this time because that's where I work and my OB is there as well. ?I delivered my son at St.John's and it was a great experience. Healtheast is always a good way to go IMHO.

I delivered at Fairview Ridges in Burnsville and had a great experience. I love my doc...she's a family praticioner at Apple Valley HealthPartners and she delivered my son. Great things to say and would definitely recommend.

MirandaHobbes · April 2009

Other- Fairview Southdale. Had a good experience there and it is less than a mile from my house.

I had DS at United and will never go to any other hospital again. They were amazing in every aspect. I had a great labor, delivery and recovery. The staff was awesome and let choose how I wanted to labor (EPI, breaking my water, laboring down, etc.) I tell all of my friends and family to go there. I am pretty much in the same area as you and it didn't take that long to get there.

I have had bad experiences at Unity as have a lot of people that I know so that is why I won't go there for anything. That is even the closest hospital to DS's daycare and I told them not to take him there if there was an emergency.

SNL0605 · April 2009

I picked Methodist for a delivery b/c I used to work there
