It is a house that was turned into a birthing center so it isn't big at all. I plan on looking at all the changes they have done over the last few years when I go in for my first appointment in a couple weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hospital-tours#post-11153 Mon, 07 Nov 2011 19:26:55 +0000 Maysprout 11153@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did mine early third trimester. I was surprised though because most of the other women looked like they were ready to go into labor the next day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hospital-tours#post-11083 Mon, 07 Nov 2011 18:36:52 +0000 pelikila 11083@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our hospital requested that the tour be done by 30 weeks. I would say right around 30 weeks was early enough. Any earlier and we might have remembered all of it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hospital-tours#post-11041 Mon, 07 Nov 2011 18:05:26 +0000 mediagirl 11041@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are planning on doing ours in the third trimester or around when we are doing the other classes like CPR and birth prep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hospital-tours#post-11040 Mon, 07 Nov 2011 18:05:25 +0000 Mrs. D 11040@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Capital Health runs all the hospitals here, and they offer free pre-natal courses to parents. One of them is a full Saturday morning visit to the hospital. We're already signed up for January. that's the third trimester for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hospital-tours#post-11035 Mon, 07 Nov 2011 18:01:42 +0000 Andrea 11035@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I did mine, everyone was in the third as it was part of the birthing class. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hospital-tours#post-11019 Mon, 07 Nov 2011 17:41:34 +0000 MegWag 11019@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our birthing centre does tours every Sunday afternoon. I've been antsy to go do ours for a few weeks now, but other mom's I've talked to haven't gone until much later. We'll probably go sometime in the next couple weeks because I'm curious. (I'm 23 weeks) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hospital-tours#post-11007 Mon, 07 Nov 2011 17:26:09 +0000 venice4504 11007@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our hospital wouldn't allow us to even sign up for a tour until we were 4-6 weeks from our due date. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hospital-tours#post-11002 Mon, 07 Nov 2011 17:24:31 +0000 mrsjazz 11002@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm doing my tour in the next couple of weeks and I'm in my second trimester. I wanted to do it in the first trimester but I felt like I was jumping the gun a little, so I waited. </p> <p>I think you should do the tour whenever you feel comfortable doing it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hospital-tours#post-10994 Mon, 07 Nov 2011 17:14:07 +0000 junebugmama 10994@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The hospital where I plan to deliver does hospital tours. My midwife gave me all of the information to set up the visit, but didn't tell me when I should do this tour. Does it make sense to do it earlier (first tri) or later on (3rd tri) </p>
