Any Rhode Island Moms in here?

I am looking for some hospital advice.  My friends delivered in Pawtucket Memorial and Loved it but I'm looking to go to Womens and Infants which I've also heard great things about. I live close to both so Im wondering if anyone on here is local with an opinion.

    I'd don't have any real advice since I live in Western MA now... but I was born at Pawtucket Memorial.

    RI FTM here..I was orginally going to Kent that is where my midwife delivers..I am in the process of finding a new doctor because we decided we would like to be at woman & infants incase anything goes wrong..kent does not have a NICu if baby needed that.  Women & Infants is a great hospital I'm looking forward to touring .. Good Luck!

    I am from there and now live in NH. My friend had her first at W&I and it was AWFUL! No privacy, very sterile, kind of like a chop shop. I was visiting her and the pedi came in and picked her preemie up by her ARMS. I would never ever suggest it.

     I'm just lurking from the Sept 2013 board, but my decision was for the same reason.  Kent doesn't have a NICU - so I picked W&I.     I don't know alot about Pawtucket Memorial; but depending on insurance and where your doctor will go, you may want to also check out Sturdy Hospital in Attleboro.  Not sure if they have a NICU or not, but a friend recently delivered there and had a great experience with a very high risk labor/delivery.   Plus their rooms are HUGE!!    :)    good luck!
