When I was in the hospital with Alex, the food was great.[1] I remember eating huge quantities of it - I was so hungry. The only problem was their bizarre schedule. The day after she was born, they brought me my dinner at 4:30 in the afternoon, and then there was no other food until breakfast, 16 hours later. Fortunately, that was the day Michael had planned to bring me sushi, so I got a whole extra meal at 10pm.
[1] Or it seemed that way, anyway. The one thing I realized was objectively not very good was the boxed meal I had on the labor & delivery unit - they kept meals in the fridge that you could have as soon as you delivered, instead of waiting for the next scheduled meal or for the kitchen to send up a hot meal. I think it was a sandwich on white bread, crisps, and an orange. The sort of thing I would have been profoundly unenthusiastic about at any normal time, but it tasted delicious after all that work!
