delivery rooms

Where babies arrive

Delivery rooms are hospital rooms where women give birth.

The term emphasizes the medical setting and professional assistance: She was in the delivery room for six hours.

Also called birthing rooms, though that term suggests a more homelike environment.

The singular delivery room often appears as a modifier: delivery room nurse, delivery room complications.
