Should I bring matress monitor into hospital for days following delivery?!

catz852002

Hi Guys.
Im going in to be induced at 5.30am this morning and am debating whether to bring my Tommee Tippee baby movement monitor (the one that goes under the mattress) in to put under baby while he is in the cot unit beside me? (Portiuncula Public Hosp) I will prob leave it in the car til after delivery etc. but wonder if this would be acceptable or has anyone else done it? Also, did ye bring breastfeeding pillows in or were there sufficient pillows in there?
Thanks!

The baby will be in a cot right beside you the whole time.
So I don't think you will need it at all:)

Good luck:)

If this is an electronic device, ask before using it.

Leave the monitor, bring the pillow. And bring your own pillow too.

as said above, you wont need it, baby will be in beside you, and nursing staff will be checking on and the baby ever so often, I do agree bring your own pillows though for comfort! good luck hope the day goes well! and your bundle pops out for you!!

Also you'd be hard pressed to have enough electricity outlets for it. There were 2 beside the bed I had.

trust me .. you're going to spend the first day staring at your baby.. if s/he even sniffles you will wake up bring the pillows though..
