Part of the ante natal care is planning the delivery. sit down with your doc and let him explain all the options you have. s/he(henceforth he) may not have admission rights to some hospitals.
Dont look at the amount of your insurance cover. most covers have a cap,and should anything go wrong(God forbid) you will have a hefty bill to pay. Go to a hospital you would afford if u didnt have the cover.
on choosing a hospital.... i wuld go for Aga Khan or mater. nairobi hospital is just an overrated nursing home. its run by nurses and consultants,. good nursing care but if things go wrong,mpaka your doc aje,nobody will touch you!
and by the way,care in most ospitals(xcpt gok) is comparable,just be undersanding. dont always look for fault( from your post.. you want the best! wrong attitude. You should ask for good care for your wife and the new born!

Thanks alot dude

@Alfa - BTW my suggestions seem basic and practical - not meaning to deliberately suggest 'cheap options' - its just that sometimes some of these expensive places are rather over rated for NOTHING. When I see my 9 year old getting his end term report (#5 in class) - he looks no different from the kid who is #12 and who was delivered at 'MoneyBags Health Clinic' for Kshs 150,000. In fact my boy would probably kick his ass since that #12 has been sheltered too much since birth. Don't get me wrong - I am NOT saying that,when it comes to kids,no expense should NOT be spared - nope. Just that the 90-100k difference,I'd rather put away to get pampers for a couple of years,get some non standard vaccines sorted out (flu,adeno,rota,meningitis,etc),have cash for emergencies,buy a perambulator,buy some Guinness for the nursing mother,etc.

Even if I was Mr Money Bags hisself,I'd NOT do it differently because its seem 'proper' and so that people can go 'oooh,they had their baby at the prestigious Money Bag clinic!'

The problem with equality is that we desire that it be with those that have more than us rather that those that have less

What about KNH private wing? Anyone with information on how much it costs. I'm told it is affordable and with facilities incase of complications
