Do you have options for what hospital to give birth at?

    We only have one in our town and it doesn't have the best reputation so when we're KU I'll be looking at some 30-60 minutes away.

    Tons but our OB was only practicing at one so we went there. Heard amazing things about it before so not sure we would have chosen another anyways

    I have two choices that are very close ( >7 minutes) a few more if I expand my circle to about 30 minutes. The two that are closest though are both good options, one is "baby friendly" the other has the best NICU in the area.

    I chose my OB (and midwife) based on where they delivered. I wanted a nearby hospital with a good NICU.

    If your hospital has a bad rep, hiring a doula is a great way to have a positive experience.

    Well, my OB states you have to deliver at one specific hospital. If I wanted a different one (there are plenty in my area) I would have had to find a different OB.

    My OB mainly works out of one, so that's where you go. but there are 4 in the immediate area, so if i wanted a specific hospital, i would just go to an OB who was out of that hospital
