How many days...

did you have to stay in the hospital after your c-section ? I'll be having my first c-section on March 27th and was just wondering how many days you stayed in the hospital. I'm just curious because I have 3 younger daughters (4.5 yrs, 3 yrs and 2yrs) and all they know is "mom". I refuse to leave them in the care of my mil because she's doesn't care for them properly or watch them. I can't ask my mom hasn't spoken to me in over 7yrs, so I really have no family besides my aunt. My husband will be off from work for a whole week to care for them but he doesn't know their routine (I'm a sahm mom) and honestly has no patience and I don't think he can handle all 3 of them at once, lol ? I'm very concerned about them being without me for a long period of time and I am positive they will be heartbroken and miss me. I know they'll be with their father and my aunt has offered to help on her days off. I just want to go home as soon as I can, but I heard that they keep you in the hospital longer after a c-section. It really worries me that I won't be there to care for them and it makes me sad.
