Have 2 y/o ds. Expecting #2 any day now. Should ds visit me in the hospital? Most people are telling me no. (Bec. he will freak out over seeing me w/ new db and will have to go home without me). [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

We had ds come. He was 2.8 and we had new baby sister give him a really great present in the hospital because she was so happy to meet him. He was happy to come and see me and happy to go home and play with his toy with daddy. FWIW. [ Reply | More ]

ok, thanks. That's a good idea about the toy. He is very attached to me (freaked out when I held a friend's baby the other day) [ Reply | More ]

We did a Leapster and some cartridges from characters/shows he loved. At that time, Thomas. [ Reply | More ]

Yes! That was the sweetest time for us. A couple of suggestions...make sure the baby is in the bassinet, off to the side when he comes in, don't hold the baby. Get a couple of gifts. WE got ours pjs (she is a pj nut) and she would go home put them on and remember that I had given them to her. It was a tangible way to connect the two worlds. If that won't work, maybe new bedtime books your dh can read to them. He will love it. Also, we obviously had the tv on kid shows, mine took naps with me in the hospital bed..best time ever! So sweet! [ Reply | More ]
