[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes assume baby is your responsibility. I actually found it really helpful to have DH in the room and not leave. I delivered after a 40 hour labor at 3am. At 7am, the pediatrician was at the foot of my bed talking to me and I just had no idea what he was saying. I was so out of it and loopy. I just fell right back asleep. People did that a lot and were waking me up nonstop to talk or ask if I wanted more colace. Maybe it wouldn't have been bad if I hadn't been up for multiple days with no sleep, but it drove me insane. I only wanted to wake up to nurse the baby. [/quote]

I’m the PP from 10:25, and oh, yes…the pushing of colace with my first delivery was crazy.  That and Percocet.  I didn’t need either, but all the nurses practically insisted on it.  I found that so odd, especially with the Percocet, that they would get so pushy about it to the point of waking me up to ask me if I had decided I needed the drugs.
Completely different with my 2nd delivery.  They asked once, made a note in my chart, then just told me to let them know if I changed my mind.[/quote]
