Hi NC ladies! Does anyone have any experience with either of these two businesses/facilities, and have stories to share?
I chose Cary OB (website: https://caryobgyn.com/) and the WakeMed Birthing Center in Cary because they are close to our house, but I have no recommendations. Any personal anecdotes would be appreciated!
Re: Cary OB and WakeMed Birthing Center
I have a different OB (that I love love love) but I'm planning on deliverying at Western Wake again. Was there in 2010 for my daughter, and they were fantastic - we had weekly NTSs and by the time we actually checked in for my induction the security guard knew us by sight - one of the adorable moments actually involved him standing up to shake my husband's hand after he had his first trip out for a cigarette the morning after our girl was born and congratulated him after the many weeks of seeing us having a healthy little one on the outside. The nurses were great through the entire thing, the lactation consultants had the no-nonsense but help you every way possible through our latch issues and they even helped me figure out what to do when I was clear to leave but my little girl was not (insurance covered the stay for both of us one more day since I was cleared earlier than the max for a csection).
Three years ago there were definite princess suites though that were part of the recently renovated sections. I don't know if they've finished up the renovations so that they are all as nice yet or not. But I am looking forward to going back in two months.
Late to the thread.
I delivered at WakeMed Cary in September and liked the facility a lot. The rooms were comfortable, and the lactation consultants were really helpful in getting things off on the right foot. And the food was decent... I'm still thinking about the bacon.
If you plan on breastfeeding, WakeMed has a wonderful support group that has been truly awesome for me.
