Well that's good that your ward is nice. I think they make more of an effort now with maternity and childrens areas. I haven't seen mine yet as I've never got far enough along, or visited anyone. I have the option of a couple of nearer places, but they don't have emergency care on the premises. I guess at my age complications are more likely. So after thinking I wanted a home birth when we first started ttc, I now want to be in the hospital! Funny how things change.
