I had the same issue back on Feb but my youngest was 10 yrs old and very attached to both husband and me. Was really worried when I had to be admitted early and stayed in the hospital for more than a week. It was really unplanned and both husband and I had not planned anything yet prior to that. Like how and where will the kids go to but thankful my in-laws kept telling us to put our kids in their home while we both focus on delivering our newborn. So after school, all my kids will go to their paternal grandparents house which is only 2 bus stops away from us. My husband came to visit me daily after work and will fetch them home after that. The night I delivered my baby, my husband only witnessed the labour of our baby and went home about an hr or 2 after that to fetch the older kids home cos they have school the next day. This has never been done before with our older kids. Usually he'll stay until I was pushed to the maternity ward to rest. So I was all alone in the delivery suite after that. Basically you'll be too exhausted with all the pushing, you just don't care if anyone is around after that and all you want to do is sleep. So yup, your plan is good.

u are lucky to have in-law and parents around☺ our family members all in oversea. mine is plan csec, so I will be sending my son to Child Care and hubby will take care him after 7pm at home, I will be alone with newborn at hospital

i am facing this issue too. Actually with no help. So if baby choose to come out during #1 no school, then i will have to go deliver alone.

Me too :(
