Any hospital in Israel would have been proud to deliver her baby, but Noa Rotman, the granddaughter of the late Prime Minister Itzhak Rabin, decided to give birth at the hospital which bears his name, Rabin Medical Center.
Noa gave birth to baby girl weighing 7 1/2 lbs at the Helen Schneider Hospital for Women at Rabin Medical Center under the care of Prof. Moshe Hod, Head of the Maternal Fetal Division. Both mother and daughter are resting comfortable in the maternity ward where the baby nursery bears the name of her grandmother, the late Leah Rabin. This nursery was donated by Queen Noor of Jordan on Leah's 70th birthday.
Noa spoke of her experience at the Rabin Medical Center, "This is an extremely special moment for me, the closing of a circle, since my baby was born in a hospital which bears my grandfathers name and her first home is a nursery which meant so much to my grandmother Leah."

It isn't an "old wives' tale" that carrying a male fetus is more "troublesome" than carrying a female fetus, according to research encompassing over 66,000 women who gave birth at the Rabin Medical Center (RMC) in Petah Tikva between 1995 and 2006.
On the evening of May 7th, 2006, David Baruch from Fort Lee,
New Jersey, accompanied by his three children Assaf, Sharon
and Karen, officially inaugurated the David Baruch Day Care
Floor at the Davidoff Cancer Center.
Dr. Jerry Sussman, a longtime friend of Israel and today the President of Rotary Coral Springs in Parkland, Florida, worked together with Rotary Petah TIkvah to purchase a special respirator for the Trauma Unit at Rabin Medical Center.
