Hey Y'all, so my Surgery is this coming Tuesday! Im having the RNY, and I was just on the hospitals page, because im an obsessive planner, and saw a part where it said to bring an adult who can sign consent papers to be with you. Now, my Husbands in the military and we dont live super close to family, on top of that we JUST moved here, so I lined up a babysitter to watch them when my Husband comes to pick me up from the Hospital for Discharge, get the instructions and sign paperwork. But, the clinic didnt mention anything about needing a support person there the day of, so im wondering, how many of you guys went by yourself and didnt have someone in the waiting area for you? I kind of figured with Covid, that wouldnt be a thing anyways? I planned on having his number down and him for my emergency person, and I do have someone who can watch them IF theres an emergency, but its pretty late to get a Baby Sitter the day of surgery at this point. Im hoping im freaking out over nothing, and not having someone in the waiting area isnt a big deal?
I figured I cant be the first person this has happened too.
Thanks in advance!
