Labor & Delivery Services

While most deliveries progress according to plan, it’s important to schedule your delivery at a hospital prepared for the unexpected. Lakeside Women's Hospital provides maternal-fetal services for expecting moms as early as 35 weeks gestation.

Our special care nursery, also known as a LEVEL 2 special care nursery, is equipped with leading edge technology including monitors, warmers and respiratory equipment. The nursery offers an intimate environment where light, temperature and noise are controlled to help promote baby’s growth for infants born after 35 weeks or weighing greater than 1500 grams. This includes infants who have physiologic immaturity or who are moderately ill with problems expected to resolve rapidly and are not anticipated to need subspecialty services on an urgent basis. This may also include providing:

  • Care for infants convalescing after intensive care (need to feed, grow and maintain body temperature)
  • Respiratory assistance using continuous pressure support for less than 24 hours
  • Stabilization for infants born earlier than 35 weeks or weighing less than 1500 grams until transfer to a Level 3 NICU

Unique services are provided to care for high risk infants. Our neonatal team consists of board-certified neonatologists, specially trained neonatal nurse practitioners and neonatal nurses.

In the event your infant requires a higher level of care, arrangements are made through this team to transfer the baby to INTEGRIS Health Baptist Medical Center. Its NICU offers leading edge technology to ensure your baby will receives the best care possible. Neonatologists and nurse practitioners are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

The Lakeside Women's hospital nursing staff works together as a team along with lactation services staff to provide care, instruction and demonstration to help you establish effective breastfeeding. We encourage you to prepare for breastfeeding by participating in breastfeeding classes offered through prenatal education, and reading. An effective guide to breastfeeding is available online at  https://www.womenshealth.gov/patient-materials/resource/guides
