Southside Mommies.....
Just curious... I've seen posts about every other hospital. Who plans on delivering at Southside Hospital?
I'm actually excited/proud to. All of my 7 nephews were born there, my brother and I were born there and my dad was born there in 1941!

Re: Southside Mommies.....
I'm delivering there. I had my first DD there in July 2007 & I LOVED LOVED LOVED it there. Do a search or I'll bump the hospital thread....I've only heard good things. The nurses rock, the maternity ward is totally redone, they have about 10-12 private rooms & the food is great.

Re: Southside Mommies.....
I delivered there in 06 and 07 and I had a great experience both times. I LOVE the maternity ward there.
If I were to offer any advice I'd say to request a private room; it's totally worth $125 a night!!!!

Re: Southside Mommies.....
I delivered DS at Good Sam and was not impressed with the maternity ward. I delivered DD at Southside and it was everything I imagined being in a maternity ward would be. The ward is cheery & bright. The nurses are phenominal...I mean one is better than the other. The rooms are big and they have many private rooms (which I highly recommend). I have never heard a bad experience at Southside!

Re: Southside Mommies.....
I had DD at Good Sam and hated it.
I had DS 4 months ago and absolutely loved it.
Definately get the private room. It is terrific!

Re: Southside Mommies.....
Oh yay! All good reviews! I've even heard that they got better this year! I know my insurance does not cover private rooms but worth a consider to foot the bill as I really do want to try to BF and my biggest hang up (although hoping I fall into the you don't care after you have the baby who sees what) is privacy.
I honestly do not recall if my sisters or sister in law had a private room but I also do not remember them ever having anyone in the next bed. I'll look back and check my pics to see if I have good shots of the room.
And my cousin just delivered at Good Sam but had to take her classes at Southside because GS did not offer.

 My sister's friend does too! Are you in Maternity? L&D? And it was years ago but my mom's friend was the lady who took the baby's first pic! What a job!!!
Hey, you know how the plus size gowns are? I want to try to get my hands on one so I can use it for a pattern to make some pretty ones for me!!!

Yep... large marge is what I'd need! That's what I actually always say, I hope they have large marge gowns!
You'll probably be on ML by the time I get there. I'm only 18 weeks today so I think I have a while before I do tours and classes but thanks! Where there's a will, there's a way! 
My sister's friend is Dawn K. Hope she's still there when I go. She took real good care of my SIL.
