Hey girls with multiples. I'm due with my 2nd any day now ... did you guys have your 1st lil one stick around for the whole hospital time or did you have them stay with like a relative? (Grandparents or anything) I just don't want Haidyn feeling left out :((

@foureyejojo okay yes I'm going to get her something today
@foureyejojo yeah I think she'll be okay now that I'm seeing u guys response lol
I also did gifts for her from baby brother
My daughter stayed with per grandparents, but all her cousin live there too so she had them around and then she came to the hospital once the baby was born
I had my best friend take my kids and they came up to visit once we were in our recovery room. This time around, it was after school for them.
@haidynsmama, we made a lot of stuff about her. But she is almost 4 so I made her a special present “from the baby” all big sister stuff. We told her it was HER baby, and she was going to be a great big sister. A few weeks before we had him, she was obsessed with a unicorn stuffed animal, we found a mini version of it and her unicorn “had a baby”. Sounds silly, but it worked really well.
We had her stay with a family member. Which ended up being better because I had complications and needed emergency surgery. We kept her at home with aunt for an extra couple of days so she didn’t see me all hooked up to the machines and what not.
@amysbabies oh no so scary:( but yeah you're right they are still pretty young also
@haidynsmama, I was 9 when my sister was born- I stayed at my grandmas and in the morning they brought me to meet my little sister. I did not feel left out, and was well rested. We visited for an hour and then I went to school. It’s good I wasn’t there, because my sister wasn’t breathing at birth and it was very hectic and my parents were exhausted (she was okay). Your daughter (and mine) are so young, I don’t think they will feel left out, just miss us.
I’m not sure they will even allow it. As for the waiting room, you really want to take in consideration the length of labor, time of day, etc. It’s prob best for her to stay with someone and then have husband text them when you are getting close to delivery to have them bring her to wait then, if you want her so soon after delivery. For me, I’m going to wait until after baby is born and then decide- you never know how delivery will go or how baby will be after birth. She will rather be pampered at a relatives house than be board at a hospital.
That shouldn’t be a problem. Dd was here in the middle of the night. As soon as my parents got the message they came to the hospital. Don’t worry too much. Everything will turn out just fine
@mackeprincess yeah and that's what I figured which is fine i don't want her there for that lol but I want her there as soon as her sister is born
@hollyn216 aw okay yay that was my exact plan. Thank you!
I had him at his grandparents. In my hospital it wasn’t allowed to have kids in the delivery room
I had her playing with all her grandparents. My parents & hubs parents get along so well! She got lots of lovins before her time was shared :) Once sister was here she was brought up immediately 💗
It's better to leave them with someone u never know how they will react to u in pain
