My fear is that KU is even more "institutional" and less progressive than Shawnee Mission, but that's a hunch I was hoping was wrong.

My guess would be that KU would be more institutional since it is a "teaching" hospital, ya know? What about St. Joes off 435 and Wornall? My friend had her baby there and really enjoyed her experience.

That's a good suggestion, but pretty far from where it sounds like HydePark lives (I think).

Are you destined for a hospital birth? What about the birth center? I think it's called Mercy and Truth? I think it's in KCK. That might be too far too, though.

Good luck, I hope you find something that works for you!

Mercy and Truth is pretty close to KU
