[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Will the hospital have a bassinet that can be rolled right up to your bed? If so, it is reasonable manageable to get the baby in and out of bed that 2nd night although you might need to page the nurse or assistant to help you get around the room, if needed. I actually found the time alone with my 2nd son kind of lovely. And it helped my older son emotionally to have Dad at home.

That being said, maybe ask the friend if he or she could be available for one more night, just in case but that if all goes smoothly, your husband will be home. That will ease any anxiety you are experiencing about it as there is some back-up. It's definitely tricky and I remember having a lot of anxiety about how we would juggle it but it all went so smoothly. Congrats and take care![/quote]

I agree. When I had my second, the baby was in my room in a bassinet the whole time, and she was relatively easy to lift to me even with the csection. On occasion when I needed help, I just paged a nurse. I really enjoyed the time alone with her and ability to bond. During the day there are so many people in and out of the room between hospital staff and family, that the nights were a nice time to bond.[/quote]
