I really liked the hospital where I gave birth. I have 2 girls, one just 8 weeks ago. I had 2 good experiences. For the second time, I had a doula who worked part time at my hopsital and it was a wonderful experience. My husband and I felt like we got vip treatment. Anything we needed or wanted she got. I don't want people to feel scared to give birth at a hospital. It's not a horrible experience for everyone. I think you need to be comfortable with your doctors and where you are giving birth, plus birth plans can always help.
