  I'm in ri, too! I haven't been really active- I check in regularly, but only contribute if I feel that I have something to contribute, and by the time that I get a chance to check in, it often seems that everything has already been said. @ashleyahann

  @Aprilmay9 - My friend delivered at BI last month and had a great experience.

  I live in Boston and will deliver at NWH! It is a great hospital and everyone says how good it is to deliver there! Plus I heard the food is great there. I'm going to take a couple classes either there or through Harvard Vanguard.

  We have yet to go on a tour. Would you recommend it? Seems like a nice hospital, clean & friendly staff. Also
  Did you take any of their classes? Sorry for all the Qs I'm so excited there are other RI ladies!

  I'm a FTM so I haven't taken any of the classes yet. I'm planning on signing up to take the all day childbirth prep class and the intro to breast feeding class. I live in Coventry, so I might try to do the classes at their East Greenwich location if possible. I also am planning on signing DH and I up for the hospital tour too.

  I am SUPER late to this post - don't know how I missed it!!!!

  
  

  @amsull324 - I will be delivering at NWH.  One of my best friends delivered there and LOVES it.  Raves about post partum care - which I barely remember from BWH (had good experience there too!).   And I heard they have jacuzzi tubs in their labor rooms - sold!

  
  

  @boston*bride - just random question since I noticed this in my Harvard Vanguard insurance - after 37 weeks I am not covered for delivery in other states, only MA.  Does your insurance cover out of state - I am guessing it does if you are in NYC so often (where I am from and the best place in the world) but just wanted to give a heads up in case

  
  

  @aprilmay9 - I took my classes at ISIS last time.  I thought they were good but seemed pretty standard.  At the time I lived in Boston and thought I would meet people in my neighborhood I could be mom friends with and it wasn't that kind of group!  I highly recommend their mommy and me classes though.  Made great mommy friends there!

  
  

  I'm in the Metrowest area on Route 9.  Would be nice to have a meet up once the babies are here!

  Damn, ladies! I'm from June '13 ( was checking out the drama) and I am one of 3 MA ladies on the whole board! I'm a little jealous. I delivered at Newton Wellesley and they were absolutely amazing! We had some complications and my ds had to stay in the NICU for 5 days. Every single nurse and doctor I met there was completely wonderful. I have nothing but good things to say about them.

  @Luma88- you know, my sister brought this up to me just the other day! She warned me about traveling as her insurance had said they wouldn't cover out of state deliveries after 36 weeks and she would have had to pay out of pocket if she delivered out of state.
  
  My insurance only specifies "network" and "out of network" and I see doctors "in network" in both NY and Boston when needed... but as I plan to continue to work in NYC until delivery, the out of state delivery thing is definitely something I should verify :-) thanks for the heads up!
  
  Oh I am delivering at NWH too! When are you due?
