Does anyone miss the hospital?

Call me crazy but everyday I actually think about being in the hospital again. (Recovering not giving birth lol) I had lo on Dec. 24th so I equested to leave the next day because of Christmas but now I think it was a mistake. I feel weird even thinking about it but sometimes I wish I could turn back the hands of time and just stay that extra day. It also has nothing to do with the nursery having lo either since she was with me the entire day until they took her at night. Please tell me I'm not crazy (or if I am its ok lol)

Does anyone else feel this way?

Hell yeah, I'll be honest and say I wish I was still in the hospital and my LO is 8 months now LOL. It was nice to have breakfast, lunch and dinner brought to you while you laid up in the hospital bed watching TV. LOL

I miss the hospital too! I had a csection so I was there for 3 days, and had my baby with me the entire time but it was just quiet and almost relaxing to.be there.

I missed it in ways. It was nice having people there for help or advice all the time, plus, no chores to do!! Haha but in all seriousness, I was there for four and a half days. I was tired of the uncomfortable bed, of the crappy food, and I missed my shower greatly. Not to mention I was very lonely at night. My bf could stay but the bed was too small for us, & I felt bad with him sleeping on chairs. So for me, there were pro & cons for the hospital stay!! If I have a second, I'd try my darndest to get out after a max of two days!!

Omg yes I loved getting waited on hand an foot lol

NylasMommy

I Miss the ladies in L&D i was in & out the hospital starting @ 7months due to being high risk. Had two nst a week & the ladies in L&D were soooo nice to me & when i had to do a c section they were fighting on who gets to b in the delivery room with me i felt special & after Nyla was born i stayed in the hospital for 7 days & i would walk From the recovery room to L&D with Nyla for nurses to see her lol. Im going to take Nyla to go see them soon to show them how big she has gotten.

@natashalynn I completely understand what you mean...lol I was beyond fed up of being woken up every hour (or so it seemed) by someone wanting to take my vitals or blood! I remembered how it was with my ODD so I was fully prepared for it...but damn lol

@DavidnAadynsMama it was relaxing in a way but I feel so awkward saying that about a hospital lol Just knowing that I had this new person all to myself before I had to share her with family I guess lol

The food at that hospital wasn't that bad either. I wouldn't dare ask to go back but I wish I stayed there longer just to have that memory

BabyBubba123111

@MrsThompson34 see you had an even better experience because of the nurses. I guess they made you forget (for just a moment) why you were really there

I miss being waited on! *ding* yes? Can I please have more juice? Yes, be right there!! Ahh that was the bomb..lol now I'm the waitress

BabyBubba123111

@starrxoxo9 Omg I work in a hospital on the mother baby unit and some women use that dang call bell to the extreme. Some women would really just want more ice brought to them. Then minutes later you would see them carrying their baby back to the nusery...like REALLY lol It used to drive me crazy and I'm sure when I go back to work it still will but for now I got to be that woman. I didn't over do it though but it was nice having the nurse ask you if you wanted anything and they had to bring it to you...lol

starrxoxo9

Yea I didn't abuse them, but it was so nice. My baby was in the nicu for 6 days so I got kinda depressed hearing the other moms with their babies.

Bahamamama4828

no way! i had my baby at home after 2 tramatic hospital births. i miss having someone cook and clean for me after birth though lol.

I had my daughter at 12.40 at night and was home just after 10am. I was itching to be back home... I only stayed a day and a half with my son too.

LittleFae

Hellz no! I couldn't get out of there fast enough. I left at 24 hours, wish I could have left sooner and they were trying to be pushy in keeping me there longer.
I had NO rest, NO sleep, the nurses bugged the crap out of me even though they only came in every three or four hours. (though I had a few strangers waltz in thinking my room was one of their loved ones... pretty un-nerving when you're a private person trying to learn how to breastfeed and have your boob hanging out and look like shiz from just having a baby and here comes in some complete stranger-man of all things- with flowers asking if this room belonged to so-and-so... um hello do I look like her!?)
I couldn't get comfortable, I hated being in a strange place with strange people, the stupid education check list thing they wanted done before I left.
Then my blood pressure started to rise but it was the stress of being there.
Then they tried to say that if my son didn't poop by a certain time they would keep me another 24 hours even though he wasn't jaundice at all. omg what a nightmare for me.
My husband and I couldn't get out of there fast enough rofl.
My next birth will be at home. (The car ride to the hospital was the most painful part of my labor/delivery)
The staff was nice, but the hospital just wasn't for me.

kayleigh27

No we didnt get help in the hospital. the hospital had no nursery so we were up all the time with the new baby and the staff always seemed to be gripping at us for one thing or another. like when my husband gave tge baby 2oz of formula they yelled at him saying that now the baby will be sick and she only needed 1 oz. um my baby was 9 lbs 7 oz when she was born and was HAPPY when we gave her the whole bottle. she was starving with.just the 1 oz. and they didnt help me at all with learning to breastfeed so i never got the hang of it...unfortunatly i have to deliever at the same hospital this time around

jennalynne87

Yes. I miss being waited on hand and foot.

preggointx

I can't wait to deliver this baby so I can get room service at the hospital it was very comfortable when I had my son I am craVing their tuna sandwich and frozen fruit juice

Kimberly4411

I like labor and delivery, but the recovery ward was hell, none of the nurses were nice, noone would help me breastfeed and they wouldn't keep her in the nursery so i could sleep, i loved my dr but i'm thinking with the next child i'll go to the other hospital

Mieshasmith35

I so miss the hospital, who wouldn't?! They spoil you. Bring you whatever your ask for, you have 3 meals a day that they bring you with the best desserts ever! You have a comfy bed free cable and etc. only thing I don't miss is being without my son, he was in nicu the while time I was in the hospital, which was a week, so I would have to go to a whole other floor to c my baby hooked up to machines and with an iv in his lil hand.

ScarlettsMama

Yes!!! I cried when we had to leave my hospital, i loved it so much & felt so safe there. ..makes me wanna have another baby! LOL Exempla lutheran hospital in denver!

Mimii36

I miss it! The cook was soo nice! She was my favorite! I love how the hospital spoils you. The bed was great! Lol. I had a csection and the bed lifting up was like a miracle when I needed to get up to go potty. My own bed was hell when that time came. I only got to stay 1 1/2 days!

Lol I miss it! The nurses were extra nice they brought me soda (I couldn't have any soda during my pregnancy and I'm addicted), one nurse noticed I didn't eat my food it was nasty & cold and brought me this nice big chicken salad, coffee machine was right by my room, I felt spoiled! Athough they kept trying to take my baby lol I was like I'm going to keep him for a few hours they was like ok i'll come back lol and I was home sick then!

YNVTish

Me too... I was kinda mad because my.honey was rushing us to discharge and go home the Dr was going to let me stay another day or two because of my spinal leak. I loved my recovery suite.
