Rhode Island Babies
Which hospital?
Hello,
We are trying to decide on what hospital to deliver in. At my first OB appointment, we had to fill out paperwork for the hospital we wanted to deliver in. We kind of weren't prepared to answer that kind of question. So I asked the nurse. She said she likes Kent and that Women and Infants is like a baby factory. We also were told that at Kent you get your own private room and that you get more attention for you and baby. So we decided to go with Kent. I, myself, know that women and infants hospital is the best hospital, but just wanted to know what everyone elses opinions were on either Kent or Women and Infants.
Your advice and recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your help.

I am going to W&I. I had selected my OBGYN first because she was highly reccommended, but also due to her doing her deliverys at W&I.
One of my best friends just delivered there and she had a private room. It was great! I was there the first night the baby was born and the nurses were all very nice and attentive. The only thing she said that she would of changed is that she had to ask them for Motrin after delivery... she did not realize it was something you needed to ask for... they just do not drug you up unless you need it. But besides that she LOVED it. And a lot of her girlfriends delivered there too.
They also have a warm line that you can call with questions before and after the baby is delivered/home. She used it tons!
