You can absolutely take a taxi, it's standard practice. I'd recommend calling a taxi company directly instead of using an app when the time comes, because you can tell the dispatcher it's a labor call and they'll prioritize you. Some companies like Funk Taxi Berlin even have a specific code for geburtsfahrten. If you're worried about timing, you can also pre-register with the hospital's Kreißsaal so they have your information ready before you arrive.
You can absolutely take a regular taxi, and no one will turn you away for arriving that way. If you're worried about the driver getting nervous, you can call ahead to a service like Taxi Funk Berlin and let them know it's a hospital run for labor, they usually send someone calm and experienced. Just have the Kreißsaal's number saved so you can call them on the way to tell them you're coming, that way they're ready and you avoid sitting in the waiting room too long.
nah taxi is fine, they won't reject you for arriving by taxi in berlin. if you're worried about timing, you could also call the kreißsaal directly when contractions start and ask if they recommend coming right away or waiting, they're usually chill about that. just have cash for the taxi since some drivers don't take card at night and vivantes fhain is on a main road so no weird access issues.
