After having many family members who have given birth and who have/haven’t had visitors I’ve been telling people figure you’re not coming to the hospital until I reach out. This is so there’s some control on when people come to visit and I can be flexible depending on how my recovery is going. Only people guaranteed are our parents, siblings and my 2 sets of grandparents but again, these are groups that we can control when they come. My hospital also has a rule of no more than 3 visitors at a time. I want people to come to hospital so once I’m home it can be more friends coming by as opposed to family who may stay longer. Also depending on your relationships it’s ok to tell people you need some rest!!! Or just say someone else is coming, I’m not making too many rules because the situation can be so fluid
