The Baby Business

Since Kim and I picked a doctor that is nowhere near our house, we also have to choose a hospital to deliver at which is nowhere near our house. Our doctor delivers at John C. Lincoln, St. Joe's, and Good Sam (for those who live in the area). Kim and I have decided to tour the birthing centers for John C. Lincoln and St. Joe's. Well, our first tour was this past week at John C. Lincoln. To us, it looked pretty much like a hospital, but they took us through lots of information, like how private the rooms were, to how security worked, to what to pack for mom and baby. We also got a few free gifts. It's very interesting when you are "looking" for a hospital how the baby business is approached. There was nothing wrong with John C. Lincoln - in fact I liked it a lot and am swaying towards it without even touring St. Joe's, although I'm interested now to see how St. Joe's will approach the same "tour". Kim and I just figured there is some good money to be made on birthing babies these days.
