 My 10 week old guys and I need to get out of the house
 for a stroller walk everyday, and the rainy weather is
 giving us cabin fever! Anyone know of good spots to go
 for a walk indoors (preferably free)? I thought of the
 mall :/ and museums, any other good ideas?

Topic: Birth Plan for C-section

 Hi,
 
 Wanted to know if I needed to prepare a birth plan even
 though I'm most likely...

 You definitely don't need a birth plan, but it's
 helpful to think about how you want things to be in
 general. Do you want your husband/partner to stay with
 you while you're getting stitched up or to go with the
 babies to the nursery while they're getting cleaned up
 and evaluated? I had my husband stay with me and had
 my sister waiting outside the OR to go with the babies
 and advocate for me so we were all reunited ASAP. I
 knew my sister would keep a close eye on things and
 would speak up if she thought things were taking too
 long (she's a lawyer...and she's had 2 c-sections
 herself!). You'll want to think about who can visit and
 when, and what kind of support you want around
 breastfeeding if you decide to do that. I said no
 visitors until first attempt at breastfeeding was done
 and asked for help in keeping visits to 15 minutes. I
 have a document that I drafted if you'd like me to
 email it to you...I went over it and clarified my
 preferences with my OB in our regular appointment
 before the surgery and she stuck to it as much as she
 could. I didn't bring it with me on the big day
 because I didn't want the nurses to think I was
 obnoxious, though...

 Definitely think about whether you want your partner to
 follow the babies to the nursery or stay with you,
 because getting stitched up takes a surprisingly long
 time. Also, does your partner want to cut the cord? Are
 you planning to breast feed? That's the most important
 stuff.
