No nursery? That sounds mom-hostile.

oh and I had to call to start my FMLA claim a few weeks ago and I get a guy. He's like what's your due date.
Are you planning to work until that day?
"Going to try"
Will you be working a full day or partial day on your due date?
"............going to try and work a full day?"
It took a lot of restraint on my end to be not be like hey numbnuts, do you know how babies work? Or maybe he and the baby have chatted and he knew when baby planned to arrive. Had a good laugh about it with coworkers. Apparently some of them got asked some fairly ridiculous things when calling in as well.

Ugh, this heat though...
Arrived in KC yesterday for DD's softball tournament. Seven game minimum (more if they do well in bracket play) in 95+ degree weather. Starting with three games tomorrow. And DD had a pre-tournament camp today, so she's already had eight hours in the sun before a game has been played. She pitched one inning (went 1-2-3) and hit into two 6-3 groundouts, against other campers in a game, after all the instruction and evaluation sessions were done.
Good thing is Jamie Trachsel was there watching, and so was one of the ISU assistants. DD has ISU and Minnesota 1-2 on her wish list. She wants to study genetics.
Are you sure you don’t want to move to north Ames now?
You could establish residency and then only have to worry about in state tuition. Although softball-wise, MN would have the advantage. But we could really use a pitcher right now . . .
Good update CG. Nurseries are somewhat becoming a thing of the past. That being said at both hospitals we had kids at if you asked the nurses were more than happy to just take it down to the nurses station. I think this last one did still have a nursery now that I think about it.
One thing we really liked about the hospital we used in Wichita is they had divided the floor up by labor and delivery, NICU and post partum. So once they get you all sewed up you would be moved to a different room with a queen size bed. As the father I appreciated that much more than the couch thing.

Disappointing. No weed.
Sorry, the CF gang recommending Letterkenny got that in my head.
That does sound a little ridiculous, but for a woman with a scheduled C-section they are more reasonable questions.
One of my questions I ended up not asking was if the nurses would take the baby for a couple hours. Tour lady was very much emphasizing the "family friendly" and "baby stays with you at all times" so I thought I'd look like a bad mom if I'm like yeah but if I want to sleep the second night, will someone else watch the baby for a bit. I'll probably ask my OB.
They do a similar thing for ours - one floor for delivery, C-section and recovery down the hall, NICU on a different floor, and two postpartum floors. Unfortunately for DH, it's a sleeper sofa. But I guess IDK what size it folds out to. The delivery rooms are nice and big but the postpartum are a good bit smaller.
I want to say he did ask about that first as well - if it was a scheduled delivery at this point. Cause yeah, it'd make more sense if you have a date set in stone.
just hold the baby in until the end of the day...like a poop?
Coworker's water broke at work. I'm very tempted to ask her if she called it in as a half day, lol. Think it was like 3pm though so I hope she called that a full day.
I feel as though we should all be in the delivery room when CG brings her little bundle of joy into the world. After all, we are all living her pregnancy vicariously! And I mean that in the nicest way possible!

Hypothetical question: If @stormchaser2014 gets married and his wife has a scheduled delivery, would the baby come on time?
From last child 11 years s ago and a different hospital, they will put the baby in the nursery for you to sleep and such.
Figured you’d ask about when you can start drinking. Remember you need to plan that out because you gotta pump (or have a way to collect) so the kid doesn’t get drunk from you. Also, some moms just can’t nurse and formula is required, don’t feel bad if that happens, just a part of life.
