Have had a chat with our
OB, and he will be doing a spinal, with the catheter to be put in after! So a big woohoo from me there
lol.
He said
DH will come in after I have the spinal done though
Also, no bub or
DH in recovery with me. They will wrap bub asap, and hand to
DH for cuddles beside me for a few minutes then send
DH and bub back to my room for more warm cuddles, until I return from recovery.
He prefers a stay of 5 days afterwards! How long did you girls stay for? Bub will be born on a Monday, and I suggested to the
OB that I leave Thursday, (would prefer Wednesday to be honest) and he was a little shocked at me wanting to leave that 'early'
He did say they will leave the catheter in for the first night, unless I get really pushy about having it removed that arvo. He suggested leaving it in, giving bub to the midwives to take to the nursery for the night and having a little something for me to get a good night's sleep, and that when bubs needs a feed they will bring him to me.
We have our hospital visit on June 10, so will ask them all about taking a camera in for pics.
