Does anyone know if they currently have the facilities and expertise (epidurals etc) to perform C-Sections at STT Hospital? Thanks!

I am quite sure that at least some of the babies born at Schneider Regional are by C-section. Have you checked the website? http://www.rlshospital.org/

A friend ( born and reared on St. Thomas- her family goes way back) has had both her children via C-section.
Linda Caiger (an AMAZING teacher, btw), our childbirth instructor, said that the C-section rate at RLS is pretty high, compared to the national average.

Best,

LR

Sorry, I meant she had both of her children via C-section at RLS. (If that wasn't clear)
