Delivery - Vaginal Overview

A normal newborn delivery inpatient stay refers to the period you spend in the hospital during and after a routine vaginal birth without complications. This stay ensures that both you and your newborn receive appropriate care and monitoring to promote a healthy start.

During labor, your body undergoes several stages to prepare for delivery. The first stage involves the dilation and effacement of the cervix, allowing it to open for the baby's passage. You will experience contractions, which become more intense and frequent as labor progresses. Healthcare providers will monitor your contractions and the baby's heart rate to ensure everything is progressing smoothly.

Pain management is an important consideration during labor. Options range from natural methods such as breathing techniques and position changes to medical interventions such as epidural anesthesia or intravenous pain medications. Your healthcare team will discuss these options with you to help you make informed decisions that align with your preferences.

Once the cervix is fully dilated to 10 centimeters, you enter the second stage of labor—the delivery of your baby. Guided by your healthcare provider, you'll push during contractions to help your baby move through the birth canal. After your baby is born, the umbilical cord is clamped and cut, and your newborn is assessed to ensure they are healthy and breathing well.

The third stage of labor involves delivering the placenta, which typically occurs within 5 to 30 minutes after birth. Your provider may massage your abdomen or give medication to help the uterus contract and reduce bleeding.

Following delivery, both you and your baby will be monitored during your inpatient stay. For you, this includes checking vital signs, managing postpartum bleeding, and providing support for any discomfort or pain. For your baby, this includes monitoring vital signs, performing newborn screenings, and initiating feeding. Lactation consultants may be available to assist with breastfeeding, should you choose to breastfeed.

A typical hospital stay after an uncomplicated vaginal birth lasts about 24 to 48 hours. During this time, you'll have opportunities to rest and recover while receiving guidance on newborn care. Healthcare professionals will offer education on feeding techniques, diapering, bathing, and recognizing signs of common newborn issues.

Before discharge, both you and your baby will undergo final assessments to ensure you're ready to go home. Your healthcare team will provide instructions for postpartum care, schedule follow-up appointments, and answer any questions you may have. They will also discuss important topics such as postpartum mood changes and when to seek medical attention.

Every childbirth experience is unique, and your healthcare team is dedicated to supporting you throughout this journey. Their goal is to ensure the safety and well-being of both you and your baby, providing a solid foundation as you begin this new chapter in your lives.

What does the estimated price include?

Estimated prices include facility fees (charges that cover the overhead costs of running a hospital) and professional fees (charges that cover the costs of services provided by medical professionals like doctors, nurses, or lab technicians).

How does Turquoise determine price accuracy?

Turquoise obtains prices from multiple sources, including provider and insurance published data, as well as historical medical claims.

If you're using insurance...

A price is considered fully verified if it is made available by both the provider and the insurance company, and those prices have low variability. A price is considered partially verified if it is made available by one or the other and can be corroborated by historical medical claims data. Turquoise does not currently publish any rates that don't meet these verification criteria.

If you're not using insurance...

Cash-pay prices can only be retrieved from provider-published data.

I'm using insurance. How do I estimate my out-of-pocket cost vs. what I can expect insurance to cover?

To estimate your out-of-pocket cost, use the calculator tool on the cost breakdown page. We recommend first logging into your insurance portal or contacting them directly to retrieve your up-to-date deductible, out-of-pocket maximum, and service-specific co-pay or co-insurance information.

I enrolled in a government-sponsored healthcare program. Can I use Turquoise to find prices for care?

You should not use Turquoise Health to compare prices if you are enrolled in a Medicare or Medicaid plan. Contact Medicare or your state's Medicaid program directly for more information.
