For DD1, DH stayed every night I was in the hospital. He literally did everything because I had such a hard time getting out of bed with my C-section. He'd change her, swaddle her, bring her to me so I could feed her, burp her, get her back to sleep, etc.

For DD2 I have the feeling he isn't going to be able to do that because DD1 will likely need him at home.

I'm sure the nurses would help with the baby but I'm not sure how much they help C-section mommas (I know I'm not their only patient ).

Any experience? How much did you rely on hospital staff? tips?
