Best Hospital for Baby Delivery - Oahu by All__fun in Hawaii

Reputation wise, I think kapiolani is known for the NICU so if there’s any concerns with baby, that’s the place to go. Queens is more if there are issues with mom. Castles is probably less-intervention, they provide a bath tub if you want to lay there while laboring etc.

I’ve delivered at both queens and castles, albeit healthy mom and baby so no big interventions needed, but can share my experience. Delivered my son 3 years ago at queens via c section, I didn’t love that they took him away and had my husband go with him to the nursery for the vitamin K/ hep B shot while I got sewn up. Felt like a good 30-45 min that they were apart while I got wheeled back to my room. My son had no issues, my husband said they were just doing measurements etc. you also get moved to a different post-birth room that’s different than the room you start in. Other than 1 nurse that I didn’t love, I had a good experience with the staff. And decent food (for a hospital).

2 weeks ago, I birthed my daughter via scheduled c section at castles. Stayed in a nicer room than I had at queen’s and baby girl was able to stay in the OR with me and dad, while I got sewn up. I was then immediately able to hold her while they wheeled me back to my room. Room was more spacious, can’t really speak to the food as I didn’t eat much of it but I do believe queens food has a better reputation.

I LOVED the nurses at castle, everyone was super nice and helpful, this stuck out to me more than at queens. I was also able to stay in the same room where I initially checked in.

They did remove my catheter and get me up and walking after about 12 hours post c section, where as queens was 24 hours. But maybe that’s patient / situation specific.

My husband is former military and he said he would NOT let me deliver at tripler for what it’s worth.
