Thanks very much for writing about this. As a woman prepares for the awesome ritual of birth, the more she understands about the process and what's expected in the place she will be, the more power she has over her experience.
I've been investigating hospital differences myself for the information of my prenatal yoga students. As you mentioned, there is a difference in the NICU facilities in each hospital. I am starting to learn that these differences result sometimes in the transfer of babies and mothers to other facilities - sometimes as far as the South SF Bay Area or San Francisco, and babies can be separated from mothers. A possible follow-up story?
