You can't. If you have a valid reason and purpose, consult with an attorney about obtaining a subpeona as part of some appropriate legal action. Feel free to contact me if serious about pursuing this, and if this is in SoCal.

The hospital has to give you your own records if you ask for them. If your daughters are minors and you are their legal guardian you are entitled to their records as well, but if they are adults or if someone else is their guardian (for example, if you are divorced and your ex has custody) then you probably aren't.

This question is really more about family law than it is about criminal law. I suggest re-posting it in that category, along with additional facts about your daughters' ages and living situation. Hopefully a family law attorney will be able to give you more information.
