Hi,

I stayed in 5 nights with Noah as I had a c-section, but I wouldn't have changed a thing. I was in a lovely room and DH could stay whenever he wanted. I had so much help and support with bfeeding etc and there was a control on visitors which DH and I appreciated so much. It meant that people couldn't just pop round to visit us whenever they felt like it. For a first time mum, I would recommend staying in at least until your milk has come in, just because it's when the milk is coming in that you'll feel most overwhelmed and emotional.

I hope that whatever you end up doing you are able to enjoy those first weeks with your beautiful new baby
