J.Lo Hospital On Alert to Thwart Babynapping

Jennifer LopezTMZ has learned that the Long Island hospital where J.Lo will probably give birth to her twins is practicing "pink drills" -- code for thwarting a possible kidnapping.

Sources at North Shore Medical Center tell TMZ the hospital conducted a "Code Pink" drill last Friday -- "Code Pink" is code for locking down the hospital to prevent a kidnapping attempt.

A rep for North Shore confirmed that the pink drill did indeed go down, but said that the timing is just a coincidence, but that's not what our sources are saying.

For the lowdown, check out TMZ TV tonight for the full scoop. Check your local listings.

32. This is a load of BS. The hospital isn't running Code Pink drills just for her. Every hospital who has a nursery runs Code Pink drills. This is just a case of someone trying to make JLo more important than she really is.

36. Yep, must be close to delivery, cause she's lost her mind. Isn't that usually the first thing to go, right before delivery?

37. if they did get taken there's always another test tube where they got those! As jerry and elaine would say "now that's a baby"
Please don't let them look like her husband.

39. Why does anyone care? She's stuck on herself. She's practically a has been. Her husband is hideous. Madonna and Britney didn't even do this when they had their babies.

42. Good job, TMZ. Hospitals have pink drills all the time and the hospital has told you the timing is co-incidental, but NOOOOOOOOOOO................TMZ has to insinuate that somebody wants to kidnap Jennifer's baby, thereby possibly putting the idea into some nutjob's head.

44. The maternity ward at the hospital where JLo is allegedly set to deliver (North Shore University-LIJ/Manhasset), is a locked ward. When one gets off the elevator on that floor, there is a little lobby and the maternity ward is to the left. You must pass through doors normally kept locked to enter the ward. Someone sits outside the ward and checks in every person who attempts to enter the ward. The person entering the ward must show ID and indicate who they are there to visit. Given that the hospital isn't even admitting that JLo will be a patient there, it's doubtful that anyone showing up at the door to the locked ward could get inside unless they knew the name of another mother and lied their way in. Any "code pink" drill would be beneficial to all of the families with babies there, so what's the harm, anyway?

45. This just completely pissed me off. This drill is run ALL THE TIME as ALL babies are important as is their safety. All babies born in our hospital have an alarm placed on them as well and if a baby is removed from the nursery wing alarms go off and EVERYTHING locks and shuts down. You cannot get off the floor with a baby who has an alarm unless it is removed and deactivated. ALSO we practice bed checks in ALL our wings but most particularly with children. I am shocked and offended that you think an establishment with the HIGHEST reputation is doing this for a celebrity. You should be sued.
