[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree w/ what PP said. I would finalize if she’s going to stay or not bc if she’s not you’ll want to jump on finding someone new ASAP. As far as while you’re in the hospital, can’t your husband stay at night w/ the toddler? I’ve never understood these parents who insist the dh sleep at the hospital. I’d much prefer my dh is at home and well rested and less change for my older children. I have 4 w/ c-sections and never needed dh at the hospital overnight. [/quote]

She is definitely going to stay through my maternity leave.  I'm not due for a couple months and I have 6 months of maternity leave, so I think I can wait to find another nanny at this point.  If we need someone new I'll likely have to find them on maternity leave.

I had a bad reaction to the anesthesia and there is no way I could have gotten the baby out of the basinet to nurse safely for the first 48 hours post c-section.  I'm not even sure I was coherent enough to know the baby needed to nurse / hold the baby for the first 12 hours.  So I think my husband needs to plan to spend at least 1 night in the hospital with me, but once I'm doing fine I'm happy to send him home even if he can't return.  Currently, he would be allowed to return, but who knows with omicron.  [/quote]
