We live in tokyo so we don't have a car. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-did-you-get-to-the-hospital#post-33202 Tue, 13 Dec 2011 16:19:21 +0000 Miss Adia 33202@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I drove myself. My water broke at midnight. The nurses told me to observe and call back in the morning. 7am nothing was happening so I drove myself to the hospital where they checked me and confirmed I ruptured. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-did-you-get-to-the-hospital#post-33196 Tue, 13 Dec 2011 16:11:17 +0000 Pipers Mommy 33196@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I drove myself. I originally went because I didn't feel 'right' (I wasn't in active labor) so the doctor sent me for a blood draw and urinalysis- ended up being diagnosed with ICP and was induced on the spot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-did-you-get-to-the-hospital#post-33139 Tue, 13 Dec 2011 14:58:51 +0000 BabyLove 33139@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was going to be induced so my husband drove us. The hospital has valet parking for people going into labor so it was really easy to just go right in. My mother drove her own car so she could come and go as needed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-did-you-get-to-the-hospital#post-33114 Tue, 13 Dec 2011 14:39:43 +0000 SAHM0811 33114@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we live in NYC and don't own a car here... we took a cab both times. for my first labor, i had to go to the hospital twice. on the second run, no cabs were in sight, so we had to take car service. for my second labor, the cab driver was so stressed out and cursing everyone in his path. i felt like we were in a scene in a movie. i almost did give birth in the taxi, because i arrived at the hospital at 9cm... I gave birth about 10 minutes after that exam. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-did-you-get-to-the-hospital#post-33106 Tue, 13 Dec 2011 14:24:49 +0000 cyndistar3 33106@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband was still only my boyfriend when our daughter was born but he was the one that drove me to the midwifery and he will do it again this time as well :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-did-you-get-to-the-hospital#post-33103 Tue, 13 Dec 2011 14:20:43 +0000 yoursilverlining 33103@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband will drive. Even if I’m at work when labor begins, his work is only at most 15 minutes from mine, and then from my work we would be about 20 minutes max. to the hospital. Plenty of time. If I go into labor at home, we’ll be even closer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-did-you-get-to-the-hospital#post-33099 Tue, 13 Dec 2011 14:18:01 +0000 looch 33099@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My labor began in the morning, I sent DH off to work thinking it might be awhile and I wanted some privacy to work through it and mop the floors, lol.</p> <p>I called him to come home around 11am, we drove to the hospital about 2 hours later, 25 minute ride. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-did-you-get-to-the-hospital#post-32990 Tue, 13 Dec 2011 12:38:08 +0000 Rosie Girl 32990@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My baby's dad drove me. </p> <p>Hopefully with this one, DH will be able to take me, but he is at work all day, so I don't know what I will do if I go into labor while he is gone. I guess just sit at home and wait for him to get here?!</p> <p>*We don't have taxis around here :) * </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-did-you-get-to-the-hospital#post-32980 Tue, 13 Dec 2011 12:31:41 +0000 katdevargas 32980@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsbells: that's my fear too! please, please let me go into labour in the middle of the night &amp; not when I'm at work </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-did-you-get-to-the-hospital#post-32882 Tue, 13 Dec 2011 11:33:00 +0000 chopsuey 32882@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I went into labor at 2am.

Thats my main fear. Hopefully my husband will be around and then he can drive me. I think a cab would be way expensive, if I didnt have anyone to drive me i'd rather call the ambulance </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-did-you-get-to-the-hospital#post-32816 Tue, 13 Dec 2011 09:43:18 +0000 Mrs. Bee 32816@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>taxi both times and coming home. we don't have a car. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-did-you-get-to-the-hospital#post-32812 Tue, 13 Dec 2011 09:36:24 +0000 Andrea 32812@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Husband drove, it was around 9 pm. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-did-you-get-to-the-hospital#post-32782 Tue, 13 Dec 2011 08:58:20 +0000 Rubies 32782@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I went into labour in the middle of the night, too.
