I suspect I wouldn't have been in the mood for company if anything had gone wrong. WHich is a roundabout way of saying that you're the boss, Alan is your enforcer, and you have a right to as many or as few visitors as you want.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06018153717290306059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863557816383416771.post-66728199751675284222008-06-23T09:16:00.000-05:002008-06-23T09:16:00.000-05:00the great thing is if you are bored and lonely you...the great thing is if you are bored and lonely you can just call someone up and ask them to come visit. I can assure you, you won't be bored. hehehe....You may not even be in long if all goes smoothly. You can even use the time to bond one on one with the baby. <BR/>The great thing is that you can just kick people out. You are the boss. <BR/>I don't know or understand your fears but I think I would have the same fears if I went through what you did. HUGS.

Der, Kirsi and my mom were here all day both days and then we had one friend come to visit. For me, it was great. I didn't feel like I was constantly entertaining people and had some down time. A couple more visitors would have been fine but not many more. I was able to write in my journal, do some reading and spend some quality family time. With all the interruptions that you have from hospital staff, having to constantly be "on" to entertain would be very tiring.<BR/><BR/>I hope your family will respect your wishes and either leave without a fight or hold off coming to visit until they get the green light. Good luck!Derwinicushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16082163458851553319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863557816383416771.post-69765232614145174132008-06-22T21:35:00.000-05:002008-06-22T21:35:00.000-05:00I have no problem keeping secrets-and doing it WEL...I have no problem keeping secrets-and doing it WELL I might add (heehee), it's your MOTHER that has issues with keeping secrets ;)Stac Colehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00987598916230715360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863557816383416771.post-85696029705054979342008-06-22T20:39:00.000-05:002008-06-22T20:39:00.000-05:00I definitely won't be there 2 hours after the deli...I definitely won't be there 2 hours after the delivery because I'm atleast an hour away. My rule is always let me know when I can visit!! I want to make sure you are settled in and ready for visitors before I come. I'm just happy it won't be tax season this time!
