Hospital visitors

It’s just me and my partner in the hospital the only other person who will be allowed in is our toddler if I am kept it for too long after my c section as I will miss his little face too much and I don’t want him thinking I have just up and left him 🫣

We've been discussing this, definitely just myself and my husband for the birth and straight after. From there, I think we're going to see what the circumstances are - if we have to stay in for a few days then may allow our parents to visit the hospital (I think people will generally stay for less time when visiting here which is ideal). If we're in and out quite quick then we'll wait till we're home to allow visitors But the idea of visitors at all isn't the most ideal at the moment. I might feel different at the time but for now it just fills me with anxiety

I had this conversation with my partner and we both agreed we don’t want anyone else there. Spoke to our parents who seemed to be okay with this and they’ll meet baby when we’re ready

I was in for 5 days and just had my partner visit, my mum Was there for the birth tho x

I’m leaning towards an elective C-section this time, so I’m expecting to spend at least a couple of days in the hospital. Apart from my husband, only our 2-year-old son and my mum will be allowed to visit. She’ll be looking after him while I’m in the hospital with my husband.

I'm having a homebirth but absolutely not x

Absolutely not for me haha. After having my first it was bad enough having the in laws come the day after I got out of hospital (c section) I am absolutely refusing visitors for like a month this time 😂. Except my mum who is coming to look after our first while I have no.2 but I won’t have her come to the hospital unless I’m not out before she has to get home for work (she gets 3 family days to use).
