Birth / C-Section Experiences at Highland Hospital (updated)

Has anyone given birth (vaginal or c-section) since 2018 at Highland Hospital's updated family birthing center?

I had my first two kids at Alta Bates in Berkeley (two c-sections) and was really happy with my surgical experience and the kids' NICU care. That said, Highland is a lot closer to home (i.e. just down the hill) and the upgrades they've made seem really nice.

Can anyone share any experiences since 2018 in the newer facilities?

I work at highland in L&D and think it’s a great place to have your baby! You should just check with your insurance first because some of my friends have wanted to deliver there and been unable to due to insurance limitations. Depending on your history and preferences we do vaginal deliveries for people who had two prior c-sections even!
