They told us she was 19 inches in the hospital, and 3 days later at her first doctor's appt she was 21 inches...so unless she had a major growth spurt of 2 inches in the first 3 days of her life I'm assuming they were wrong. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hospital-get-your-los-time-of-birth-right#post-12759 Wed, 09 Nov 2011 16:10:31 +0000 Mrsbells 12759@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>As long as the date is right I wouldnt be too bothered if the time was a off by a few minutes </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hospital-get-your-los-time-of-birth-right#post-12751 Wed, 09 Nov 2011 16:04:38 +0000 themcmom 12751@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cyndistar3 - It could be the right time, it just seems so orderly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hospital-get-your-los-time-of-birth-right#post-12636 Wed, 09 Nov 2011 14:45:45 +0000 LazyLightning 12636@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I was born the hospital put the wrong day on my birth certificate. (I was born in the evening of one day and they put the next day on the cert. My folks caught the error.) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hospital-get-your-los-time-of-birth-right#post-12564 Wed, 09 Nov 2011 13:53:48 +0000 cyndistar3 12564@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@THEMCMOM- I don't think it is too far out, I was in fact born at 9:10 am. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hospital-get-your-los-time-of-birth-right#post-12562 Wed, 09 Nov 2011 13:51:36 +0000 themcmom 12562@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our doctor had to ask the RN what time Wombat was delivered because he forgot to look. However, I think it's weird that she was born at 6:20am. Really, I bet it was 6:18 or something and they rounded to 20.</p> <p>I thought I was weird for questioning that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hospital-get-your-los-time-of-birth-right#post-12552 Wed, 09 Nov 2011 13:39:59 +0000 cyndistar3 12552@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am pretty sure they were acurate, someone said the time basically as soon as she was all the way out. She was born at 12:59pm </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hospital-get-your-los-time-of-birth-right#post-6883 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 08:40:11 +0000 chopsuey 6883@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband thought our baby was born at 2:01pm. The hospital recorded it as 2:02pm.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hospital-get-your-los-time-of-birth-right#post-6875 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 08:27:13 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 6875@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh wow, I never thought of checking the time. Maybe they did round it up or down seeing they gave me 10:50 as a time. I guess I'll never know. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hospital-get-your-los-time-of-birth-right#post-6872 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 08:24:26 +0000 mrs. wagon 6872@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We thought the birth was 5:14am but the card from his bassinet read 5:19am. I have no idea what his birth certificate says... come to think of it, I guess I should get a copy...!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hospital-get-your-los-time-of-birth-right#post-6836 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 02:57:23 +0000 looch 6836@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>8:03 pm, saw it right on the huge a** clock that was over the doorway. That clock was haunting me for my entire active labor! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hospital-get-your-los-time-of-birth-right#post-6817 Thu, 27 Oct 2011 21:24:01 +0000 Boogs 6817@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wasn't awake for the birth of my son, so I have no way of knowing. At his followup visit after we were discharged they measured him and noticed that they must have recorded his height incorrectly because he would have otherwise shrunk! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hospital-get-your-los-time-of-birth-right#post-6659 Thu, 27 Oct 2011 17:39:48 +0000 tequiero21 6659@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i think doctors guestimate sometimes. and sometimes they don't call it the second it happens. like recording someone's death. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hospital-get-your-los-time-of-birth-right#post-6634 Thu, 27 Oct 2011 16:21:09 +0000 yin 6634@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The nurses called it at 1:43 PM, and I think they were pretty accurate. I vaguely remember her shouting it out loud right after the midwife placed the baby on my body. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hospital-get-your-los-time-of-birth-right#post-6618 Thu, 27 Oct 2011 15:35:10 +0000 Adira 6618@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Is it possible that your phone and the hospital clocks are just off by a couple minutes? Or maybe they are both off - one a minute fast, one a minute slow? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hospital-get-your-los-time-of-birth-right#post-6603 Thu, 27 Oct 2011 14:57:29 +0000 Andrea 6603@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wish I knew but I wasn't paying attention nor was my husband. Human errors are bound to happen. At least it was nothing life threatening that they missed up. Now that is scary when I hear of those stories. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hospital-get-your-los-time-of-birth-right#post-6598 Thu, 27 Oct 2011 14:50:40 +0000 sandsandmore 6598@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My times were accurate. But what was incorrect....on Sebastien's discharge papers from the NICU, part of his summary said that he was not an identical twin. But he was....we had the hospital go back and verify and update his medical records. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hospital-get-your-los-time-of-birth-right#post-6574 Thu, 27 Oct 2011 13:16:55 +0000 hreichard 6574@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didnt look to see what time it was because i had a c-section and was knocked out. I had stopped breathing and they didtn even have time to get cliff into the operating room, so i'm assuming they got the right time. They had to grab Jovani immediately and rush him to the NICU to get him breathing, on heart monitors and oxygen because my placenta died and he turned breech. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-hospital-get-your-los-time-of-birth-right#post-6566 Thu, 27 Oct 2011 12:59:17 +0000 mrbee 6566@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The hospital recorded Olive's birth as being at 1:50 am. But I was taking detailed notes on my iPhone (so that Bee could blog it later), and Olive was born at 1:52 am!</p> <p>It never occurred to me that the hospital might record such an important detail incorrectly!</p> <p>Did you happen to look at your watch or phone when your baby came into this world? Did the hospital get the time of birth right? </p>
