      - YAY! Thanks. I have heard nice things too but it's small so I never hear of anyone's experience. My doula likes it a lot-- says there are small (as opposed to a place like NYU) and very supportive of natural and non-judgmental. Also, it's like 5 blocks away which I love.

        i used nyu for my two first l&d's. used st vincents for my third. we ended up with complications and the nurses were just great. both with their medical expertise and with the care. i'm not using it again for other reasons, but i highly recommend it.

- with everything, St Lukes/Roosevelt was $15k last Feb. - epi, room, delivery, baby checkup, etc. $6K sounds low to me.
