[quote=Anonymous]No. Not for the first couple of weeks. Women do it, but I would have been a wreck. I was wreck enough with DH home. And you can't drive for those first two weeks after a c-section. Will they not let him go in the hole with leave to at least take a week off? Then fly out your mother/sister/friend or hire a doula or something? Part of the issue too is that you'll want DH's help in the middle of the night. DH made it so I did not get out of bed when the baby cried. He got up, changed the diaper, reswaddled, gave me the baby to feed, then took the baby again to burp and soothe to sleep. DH won't be able to offer that kind of support and be functional at the office, I would imagine.[/quote]
