  Mt. Sinai is known as a much better hospital than Lenox Hill, but you really can't go wrong with either. ?Mt. Sinai has a better natal ICU in case something goes wrong. ?But it really depends on your ob-gyn & where she delivers - most of us don't have a choice. ?where does your dr. deliver? ?

  For testing out baby gear, head to Buy Buy Baby in Chelsea - it's huge & the salespeople are very helpful. try to go on a weekday. ?good luck!?

  I know people who have delivered at both.  Sinai is one of the top hospitals to deliver and has great doctors but the maternity ward really isn't that nice.  I have heard Lenox Hill has a nice maternity ward but haven't seen it.

   Why not Weill Cornell on 70th and York?  That is where I'm delivering and it is great and has great doctors!

  I delivered at Mt. Sinai because this was the only hospital my dr. delivered - so I didn't have much of a choice. I think my care was exceptional. I ended up having a c/s, but the nurses and residents in L&D were professional. The maternity ward was renovated recently and are pretty nice. The one downside I would say (and maybe this is common in most NYC hospitals - like I said, I didn't do any research of other hospitals b/c this was the only place my dr delivered) is that you have to pay out of pocket for private rooms. I am so thankful that we did get a private room - especially since our stay was a bit longer due to the c/s.
