Saint Vincent Maternal Child Health: After Delivery

Congratulations on your new arrival! New mothers will be transferred to one of Saint Vincent’s 25 postpartum rooms. Bonding with your new baby is important. That’s why each room is private. Whether you are a first-time mom or a “veteran” who needs to brush up on her skills, specially trained nurses will help you learn more about giving your baby a bath, preparing formula and food, support for breast feeding and even securing your baby’s car seat.

Your baby can be with you as often as you wish during your stay at Saint Vincent. A crib can be placed by your bedside so you can “room in” with your baby. If you prefer to rest or participate in other new-parent activities, our expert nurses will assist with the care of your newborn. Saint Vincent has a fully equipped and staffed nursery designed with your baby in mind. You are welcome to have the baby in the nursery at any time. It’s up to you.
