[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think anyone was rude. OP is a grown woman and, presumably, knew she would need someone to stay with her other child when she has 2nd child if she insists that her DH be at hospital with her. [b]Frankly, it is stupidity on OP's part not to have thought of this very early in her pregnancy. I have zero sympathy for her.[/b][/quote] She's only 4 months. Seems plenty early enough to me. Some of you seem to think that she's due any minute and just now thinking about it. Reading comprehension, people. And I know enough people who have had complications during both vaginal and c-section births (hemorrhage, unexpected issues with the baby, etc) that I would be leery of giving birth without an advocate there with me. I understand that plenty of women have done it before and will do it again, but...in OP's situation, I'd probably look into hiring a doula or flying in a family member or friend.[/quote]
