I'm having a c-section in 2 days and my husband just now says "I'm not sleeping at the hospital" - I'm feeling a bit pissed.

Men are...different. My husband told me he will stay the first night, but after, he will probably go home and sleep the other nights. I'm going to be so out of it anyway, it is what it is. Don't be too hard on him OP. I have a feeling once he sees your baby for the first time, this may change. I've seen it with a few friends, personally. Everyone always has plans/thoughts of how something will go, but life NEVER goes that way. I think he will be around.

Now if he needs to go home to water plants, shower, catch up on a quick nap, eat, make sure everything is perfect for baby, run to the store, just let him. You are going to be so tired and exhausted, it's okay if he takes some time for himself a few hours while you sleep during these hours. Delivery is not like the movies!
