Being alone in delivery & after in hospital.

Hello! My husband wasn't around when I was pushed to the delivery suite (admitted 3 days earlier due to PPROM) so I called him to come down to the hospital. So he was with me when I was in labour but had to leave after I gave birth to fetch our kids home from his parents cos it's already night time and the kids has school the next day. That was the first time I was left alone. He was always there before and after birth with our previous pregnancies but due to the above reason, he can't stay. I was exhausted from the labour so I just bade him goodbye & sleep. You won't be alone actually cos the nurses will come to check on you every now & then until they push you to the maternity ward. For me I chose B2 ward cos I prefer to have other patients with me although it can be a little tad noisy with the cries from other babies but I don't mind at all as long as I don't have to sleep alone 😅

Hi, my hubby was there with me for my 1st delivery. But he’s more like a white elephant. As if got possessed. Couldn’t move a muscle😂 pity him.!. after giving birth I was all alone in ward as I told him to go back. It’s already late night. Nurses are very helpful tho. I’m due soon and this round time hubby won’t be there as he needs to take care of my toddler. Trust me, you don’t really have time to feel lonely before and after delivery. You can even req to keep your newborn baby with you all the time. ☺️ and alwayS get help frm the nurses when needed.

Hi I had an ectopic preg operation last year during CB and was in icu, during my time there I also met ladies who just gave birth alone. It was very sad but everyone understand it’s for the safety of patients. I think we all just focus on getting well asap so that we can go home soon and be with our hubby! Just a few nights hang in there 💪
