We did our first (of two) hospital tour this morning of Overlook! When I told Jonathan that we were going to the hospital, he asked if I was having a baby! ha. It's literally 5 miles from home -- just not in the direction I thought. Jonathan struggled with hos-pit-al vs. hop-sipt-al for the drive there, but he did master it. Of course, we parked in the furthest lot possible and had to snake through the facility. That's why you do a dry run first. I didn't really have any questions prepared; I was more interested in finding the exact location (6th floor). The L&D rooms are enormous and private. Post-op recovery is not private (curtain partitions), but it sounds like that's a very short (if c-section) stay. The postnatal rooms are quite small, but nice enough, have an extra fold-out bed, and most are private too. We also saw the nursery with three itty-bitty newborns (wow, were they small!); Jonathan got a kick out of that. He also did a nice job talking to the nurse who gave us a tour.
