[quote=Anonymous]Im in the same situation. We have a couple of friends, who offered to help, but we don’t really feel comfortable calling them at 3 am or leaving our child with them for a longer period of time. My daughter is very attached to us and doesn’t really want to stay alone at other people houses. We plan to have my husband to stay with her at home at night while I’m at the hospital. He doesn’t want to miss the birth of his child, but honestly I will feel much better if I know she is with her dad. We have a babysitter, who comes 3 x a week for a few hours a day, since last month. She is also our backup. At this moment everything depends on when the labor starts, how long it last and how it all goes etc. I’m mentally prepared to do it alone, but I hope it will work out for all of us. I feel like actually scheduling c-section seems so much better, because you can plan better. I have been worried about it for months, and seeing OP’s post in some way I feel better, it’s not just me having this issue. [/quote]
