My mom, dad, sisters + 1 bf came that day, and the next morning MIL, FIL, and LO's half sister came to visit.<br /> It was Thanksgiving so made it hard for some to get away, but was fine by me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-did-you-have-visit-after-birth#post-2353665 Thu, 12 Nov 2015 10:17:44 +0000 erinbaderin 2353665@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I spent 36 hours in the hospital post-C section, and had my parents and two of my close friends visit, but they all stayed for less than half an hour and the visits were spread out. I was ok with that. (although one of my friends brought her mother-in-law who was visiting from another country and who I'd never met before...that was a little weird). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-did-you-have-visit-after-birth#post-2353349 Thu, 12 Nov 2015 00:02:44 +0000 Corduroy 2353349@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just my parents both times. My brother and SIL wanted to come for LO1 but I was in a tiny double room and asked for them to wait until we got home. We were home in less than 24 hours after LO2 so we didn't even have LO1 visit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-did-you-have-visit-after-birth#post-2353275 Wed, 11 Nov 2015 22:18:33 +0000 Mrs. Pink 2353275@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Everyone local in our family... Literally less than 12 hours after I had Caroline and it took work to keep them away that long 😂</p> <p>I enjoyed having visitors but I kind of want to schedule my next c section in the middle of the night so I can keep people away until we've had more bonding time, but I don't know if the Dr will go for it or not. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-did-you-have-visit-after-birth#post-2353054 Wed, 11 Nov 2015 19:06:11 +0000 travellingbee 2353054@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At the hospital we had close family and one of my friends. After we got home, we had tons. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-did-you-have-visit-after-birth#post-2353045 Wed, 11 Nov 2015 18:52:26 +0000 Foodnerd81 2353045@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>In the hospital? 3- my parents and BIL. Just the way I wanted. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-did-you-have-visit-after-birth#post-2353015 Wed, 11 Nov 2015 18:16:46 +0000 JenGirl 2353015@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had my parents, my grandmother and aunt and uncle about 2 hours after birth. Then my husband's aunt and uncle and our neighbors the next day. We were lucky to have visitors that didn't overstay their welcome, so we had a great experience. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-did-you-have-visit-after-birth#post-2352977 Wed, 11 Nov 2015 17:21:55 +0000 MrsLilybugg 2352977@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just my immediate family but that's what I wanted anyway!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-did-you-have-visit-after-birth#post-2352974 Wed, 11 Nov 2015 17:19:09 +0000 gingerbebe 2352974@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My parents and brother at hospital, my mom then stayed with us for 3 weeks and then my in laws came 6 weeks later. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-did-you-have-visit-after-birth#post-2352960 Wed, 11 Nov 2015 17:03:49 +0000 mrsrain 2352960@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>None in hospital. 3 (my parents and sister) when we got home. This time we have a lot of friends so I am looking forward to lots of company! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-did-you-have-visit-after-birth#post-2352856 Wed, 11 Nov 2015 15:58:08 +0000 rachiecakes 2352856@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>J was kept in oxygen and then under the lights for the first couple days. We had visitors but they were warned they would only get to see a very sick version of me. (I had BP issues that didn't go away for a while after birth). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-did-you-have-visit-after-birth#post-2352853 Wed, 11 Nov 2015 15:56:53 +0000 bushelandapeck 2352853@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For DS, we had a ton of visitors and found it to be exhausting. With DD, it was flu season so only immediate family were allowed to visit (and no children) so only my mother and my FIL visited. It was great! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-did-you-have-visit-after-birth#post-2352830 Wed, 11 Nov 2015 15:48:49 +0000 LuLu Mom 2352830@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With our first she was in NICU so we restricted it to immediate family &amp; a few very close friends. We didn't want to risk exposure to any illness. With DD2 we gabe birth over a weekend so we had quite a few visitors probably around 30, but I loved it, it helped make the time go by fast of a c-section stay (3 days.) how many did you have? </p>
