Castle or Kapiolani?

[MangoMommy]

I'm seeing Linda Chong Tim (starting in March, I had to wait to get in!) and I know she delivers at both hospitals. Anyone have an opinion? I live closer to Kapiolani but HATE the traffic...the words "Middle Street Merge" make me break out in a cold sweat LOL!

Do they let you video tape? Allow children in the room (grade school aged?) Let me eat? Do heplocks or no IV?

Also, does anyone have any experience w/Linda?

Thanks!

I've heard Castle can be less busy, nicer rooms, etc.

BUT the NICU is at Kapiolani if you have any complications that the baby would need any assistance. That also makes it a bit more medically-minded, but in the end they are both hospitals so that's what you get.

Congrats on getting in to see Linda
