If LO comes before that we have multiple friends who have offered to keep her, all of whom live within 5 minutes of our house and who LO has stayed with before. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-made-your-childcare-arrangements-for-when-you-deliver-your-next-lo#post-2219269 Fri, 26 Jun 2015 07:28:06 +0000 cat620 2219269@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My in-laws live close to us, so they will probably watch my son while I'm at the hospital. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-made-your-childcare-arrangements-for-when-you-deliver-your-next-lo#post-2219215 Fri, 26 Jun 2015 06:22:36 +0000 travelgirl1 2219215@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well, kind of. My first choice is out of town the week before my due date but comes back the day after so hopefully that will all work out. LO will have a blast with her and her family. I have a second choice but am a bit worried about her at the moment..... So, hoping baby will cooperate and stay put until our first choice is back in town :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-made-your-childcare-arrangements-for-when-you-deliver-your-next-lo#post-2219211 Fri, 26 Jun 2015 06:16:29 +0000 Foodnerd81 2219211@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have some options but no real plan. Only family nearby is my younger bil, who works and probably wouldn't want to take off at a moments notice. Two Sahm friends have said they can help. So it will be a combo of those three probably and Dh will only stay the first night I think. </p> <p>I asked my mom (5 hour drive) about it and it would be too hard for her to take a few days off work. For the birth of her grandchild. Maybe I'm being selfish but I think that sucks. :bummed: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-made-your-childcare-arrangements-for-when-you-deliver-your-next-lo#post-2219209 Fri, 26 Jun 2015 06:11:24 +0000 Mrs Hedgehog 2219209@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She will probably stay with my IL since they are closer to the hospital but I know my parents will beg for her. We'll see. Either way I know we have it covered. I might convince my mom that she can't take her so I can have her in the room with me and that may clear up some drama. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-made-your-childcare-arrangements-for-when-you-deliver-your-next-lo#post-2219131 Thu, 25 Jun 2015 23:34:45 +0000 birdofafeather 2219131@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope but it's 4 months away. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-made-your-childcare-arrangements-for-when-you-deliver-your-next-lo#post-2219090 Thu, 25 Jun 2015 22:26:17 +0000 Mrs. Bee 2219090@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>no plan since olive came 5 weeks early. we ended up asking our babysitter to spend the night, and my mom got on a red eye flight from la. it worked out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-made-your-childcare-arrangements-for-when-you-deliver-your-next-lo#post-2219089 Thu, 25 Jun 2015 22:24:16 +0000 autumnlove 2219089@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I need to start thinking about it soon. I think my MIL will watch my girls but she wants them them to stay at her house instead of sleeping over at our place. We live blocks away so I guess it isn't a big deal either way! </p>
