Should Wife Stay Overnight At Hospital?



Recommended Posts

I have searched all over forum so I apologize if this has been asked already but should I have my Wife stay overnight with me at Hospital after surgery?

We have twin 8 year old girls that she could stay home with. Will I need her help because I will be awake during night?

My hubby did not stay with me. They will be getting you up to walk and then give you pain meds to help control your pain. So my personal opinion is plan on your wife staying home with the kiddos.

Any help you need the nurses are there for you. The first night you will be in and out of it, have your wife stay home with the kids.

When I had my surgery in the hospital, my husband took me to the hospital and left after the surgery. I didn't see him until I was released 2 days later. I didn't need him, I took my IV morphine and I was sleeping anyways. It was really no big deal..

You might sleep through the night too. I did..... best wishes for your upcoming surgery.... :P

Didn't need my husband either. Sedated most of the time. Best sleep ever!!

My hubby stayed the entire time I was there. I loved having him there to help and he was absolutely wonderful! ;)

Your wife should stay at home, as the hospital staff will tend to your needs after surgery. As stated in the above posts you will be out of it for the first night.

Thank you everyone for the great advice. We are going to have her stay with our little ladies and she can come in the morning.

Again thank you!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
