I...After I had Tyler I was in recovery for an hour. It was so nice to just have some down time. 2 people were allowed in recovery so we let our parents take turns. I know if you have a vaginal birth, you can request that you have an hour or so to yourself. I highly recommend it. It's going to be something that you and Geoff need. Once people start coming in, you will probably get exhausted. I was so drugged up, I don't remember half the people that came to see me anyways. All I remember was eating fried pickles from Hooters and chocolate cake from Red Lobster. You would think I was still pregnant.... <br /><br />By the way, I love reading your blog. I get so excited when I see a new post. Good luck with everything!Ashley Rose Huelsmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08991065795927812505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8884089700913823711.post-88204368319116552362010-03-23T06:24:27.255-07:002010-03-23T06:24:27.255-07:00Yeah, I totally agree.

So they'll ALL be in the waiting room anxiously awaiting the arrival of our little bundle of pink or blue joy. But the nursing staff at Suburban already told me if you're tired or don't want visitors just let us know and we'll take care of it. So we'll see what happens. Hopefully I won't have a really long and drawn out labor and I'll be feelin good and ready to go. PRAY for that for me!

Once the baby was born Sean started calling his family but I was so exhausted that I didn't feel like calling people so I let me mom call family and waited a couple hours to call other people. That was before I was on facebook though (which is hard to believe since its only been 18 months) so next time I would definitely just put it on facebook after the immediate family was notified. That is the easiest way to reach everybody!<br /><br />Something to think about - everybody is different but I wouldn't recommended lining up a bunch a visitors for the hospital. I remember being so tired and I just wanted time to rest and I was struggling with breastfeeding so I wanted to do that in private. Immediately family and real close friends were fine but it is nice to wait a week or two once you get home to have a ton of visitors.Laura Roethlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02486419642898946556noreply@blogger.com
