If we're here, MIL. If we're there, hopefully an aunt/uncle or maybe a friend (who has a kid and knows what they are doing!!) I have a specific aunt in mind but no, we have never talked about it! Then hopefully my mom/dad can take over. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-watched-lo-when-baby-was-born#post-925194 Thu, 11 Jul 2013 22:17:59 +0000 autumnlove 925194@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My MIL and my SIL/BIL! I felt bad because my SIL had a newborn! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-watched-lo-when-baby-was-born#post-925173 Thu, 11 Jul 2013 22:13:15 +0000 yin 925173@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not too sure actually. Ideally my in-laws will watch DS, but their work schedules are all over the place. Just hope it works out somehow when the time comes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-watched-lo-when-baby-was-born#post-925017 Thu, 11 Jul 2013 21:25:41 +0000 chopsuey 925017@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom stayed with her while we were at the hospital. Baby was born in 4 hours so I sent dh home that night so he could do bedtime with dd. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-watched-lo-when-baby-was-born#post-925006 Thu, 11 Jul 2013 21:23:24 +0000 jmarionsmith 925006@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>either fil or my sister. i definitely want my mom and dh's mom is l&amp;d nurse and it was sooo nice to have her there telling me what really was going on! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-watched-lo-when-baby-was-born#post-924990 Thu, 11 Jul 2013 21:19:47 +0000 Andrea 924990@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My parents did. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-watched-lo-when-baby-was-born#post-924986 Thu, 11 Jul 2013 21:18:40 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 924986@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He will stay with my MIL because out of the 2 grandmothers, my MIL would be *more* willing to stay home whereas my mom would KILL to be with me in the hospital.<br /> I think LO will spend the first week with my MIL when I have a second child.<br /> He will come visit me and so will she, course, throughout the week, but he will most likely stay with her an entire week so DH and I can adjust to the newborn. My MIL will do tons of fun things with him in that week, that me and DH will be too exhausted to do :/ park, movies...swimming...eating out at fun places.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-watched-lo-when-baby-was-born#post-916105 Thu, 11 Jul 2013 21:15:00 +0000 heffalump 916105@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We don't lack for babysitters because both of our parents live here. I just feel like they'd like to be at the hospital when our next is born. When LO was born they all went to the hospital at 4 in the morning, which is when we went, and they waited in the waiting room until an hour after she was born to meet her. </p>
