DH wants to be sure he knows where to go when we deliver (which I *think* is just up the stairs, but I digress). Did any of you take a tour at North Austin? When I asked, they just gave me a list of times, so I'm assuming we just show up?
Yes - just show up for any of the tours. I brought my sister with us to so that she could direct our family also. It's very comforting to know how it will all work!
When I showed up, I hadn't taken a tour of the new place and I had NO idea where to go/ what to do. Luckily, we ran into a nurse who got us to the right place. But, being in active labor and trying to read signs/ follow directions is kinda hard.

This. I had to go at 29 weeks and I was so confused because it was after hours and there was no one around. I knew it was up one floor, but, once you get up there, it's just a waiting area and some double doors that are locked, so I stood around like an idiot not knowing what to do, until I saw another couple come by and push a button that unlocked the double doors to let them into the L&D area. So, it was a little overwhelming when I was already stressing out about going into labor at 29 weeks!
