| Does anyone know when the new building is planned to be finished at Wellington Hospital. I think that the maternity wing is moving to the new building but thats about all I know. Thanks |

Hey that will be great, the old one definitely needed a spruce up. Fingers crossed by Jan next year! |

A friend of mine is a neonatal nurse and i'm pretty sure she said it was due to be finished in March. She said it's going to be fantastic  ------------- http://lilypie.com">

I know the move for the rest of the hospital is in mid march something like the 23rd, but not sure if womens services are moving sooner or not - I should pay more attenttion to internal emails at work ------------- http://www.babysfirstsite.com">

| The 'twins' are due 28 March although I think twins go to 38 weeks so might be a couple of weeks earlier. So close to when the new wing opens but I suspect that we just miss out and will be at the old wing. Plus there are always delays. Thanks though, good to know |

Well sorry ladies but I'm stoked! I'm not pregnant yet and therefore it's bound to be finished by the time I'm ready to use it again. TBH though I don't really remember what the old maternity ward looks like. I was just totally smitten with the contents of the basinette beside me and couldn't care less about anything else. -------------
