- WOW, at our hospital someone (Kevin's daddy) stayed with him
- through all the procedures. I delivered in a Labor/Delivery/Recovery
- room and Kevin stayed in the room with us for about 2 hours
- while they weighed him, washed him, pumped his little stomach,
- gave him his Vitamin K shot. Then they wheeled me to my
- hospital room and dad went with the baby to the nursery. As
- long as dad showed his bracelet with the matching number,
- he could get the baby whenever he wanted (as could I, if
- I could have walked down the hall without passing out) but
- no one else could. We didn't have to leave him for a minute.

- Guess it's different at different hospitals??
