Yes. Our team includes 24/7 in-hospital obstetrician hospitalists, so there is always a physician onsite, ready to respond quickly to your needs during labor and delivery.

We have a dedicated 2-bed C-section suite specifically for obstetric patients. This allows for timely, safe, and specialized surgical care if needed.

Once admitted, you will be brought to an LDRP suite. You can review your birth plans and preferences with the nurse at this time. If desired, you can discuss pain management strategies with your nurse. We encourage each mother to room in with their baby and bond. Visits by the pediatrician will take place in the birthing suite.

Yes, newborns who need extra medical care stay in our Level II NICU. We offer private rooms to allow parents to stay with their child throughout his or her time. These private rooms are specially equipped with warmers and devices to monitor the blood pressure, heart rate and temperature of your newborn. All our NICU nurses complete extensive training and have years of experience to provide each newborn with personalized, expert care.

We provide personalized support before, during and after delivery through your dedicated patient care team. We promote practices that have numerous advantages for both mom and baby. Our services include:

• Couplet care
• Delayed bathing
• Skin-to-skin contact
• VBAC (vaginal birth after cesarean).

We also use a wireless fetal monitoring device to allow you to move freely during labor. Our expert team uses the latest technology to ensure a safe, comfortable experience for you and your baby.

We offer virtual childbirth education and breastfeeding classes to help you prepare for your birthing experience and learn essential baby care skills. All our classes are currently virtual; call (281) 637-8340.

Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) is the unexplainable, sudden death of an infant. While the tragic death of a baby is only amplified by the frustration of not understanding the root cause of SIDS, there are steps you can take to lower your baby’s risk of SIDS. 

To protect your baby from SIDS, get regular prenatal care, avoid smoking and secondhand smoke, and ensure your baby sleeps on their back in a crib or bassinet with a firm mattress and no loose items.

Postpartum blues can occur from birth to two weeks after delivery, causing mood swings, crying, self-doubt and trouble eating or sleeping. Postpartum depression includes similar but more intense symptoms that last longer and interfere with daily life. If you’re concerned, talk to your doctor or nurse. The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommends a full postpartum checkup within six weeks of birth.
