My wife and I just had a baby at woman's and had a really bad experience. Our Labour was great but the after care was like being in prison.
Parking. We arrived late at night and didn't see the signs about parking, nor was our focus really on parking but more on getting in the hospital to have a baby. We parked, paid for 24hrs parking and thought we where fine. After playing for an additional day at the meter without returning to the car on the 3rd day I finally get the ability to go out to the car with our bright start parking pass only to find 2 tickets on my car. Turns out I parked in a employee stall (1st ticket) and also a 4 hour limit stall (2nd ticket. The parking meters excepted my payments and gave no indication of restricted parking for the stall I entered, nor did the register nurse, bright start staff or other nursing staff ask or mention the restricted parking near the labour and delivery entrance.
The other issue was the temperature of the room after our baby was born. 3 days we roasted at 28 Celsius, begging for someone to turn down the heat. We weren't allowed to keep our door open cause of the baby cry's and it wasn't until I informed the staff we where leaving despite out medical issues that they finally got someone from maintained down to fix the problem. It was like we had no rights to be comfortable.
Instead of having the feeling of I can't believe they are letting us leave with the baby, we could only cry on the car ride home for getting free from the hellish heat and uncomfortable hospital stay.
