Why do I need to tour the hospital before I give birth?

You don’t have to but we did both times. I’m glad we did.

I never did. I didn’t even need to anyways. I didn’t get out of my room until i was released.

You don't

I did but I wish I had done it sooner. I got a tour at 34 weeks and it was then that my husband and I looked at each other knowing we did NOT want the birth of our child to be there. I had to switch my OB doctor and will now be giving birth at a beautiful birthing center. Definitely recommend getting a tour! They give great info about the process so it's very helpful to do so.

I never did. 🤷🏼‍♀️

For my last pregnancy I got to meet all the l&d nurses. She answered all my questions and gave me a bunch of info. She went through the induction process and how c sections go if it was an emergency. Super thorough. Idk which hospital I’m going to give birth at this time so I probably won’t have time to do one. Lol

To make sure you feel comfortable giving birth there mainly.
