[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 458194, member: 84"] Oh, trust me, I'm in no way shape or form babying him. husband being a hypochondriac all these years has made any instinct I might have in that area deader than a doornail. I can't baby him as he will milk it for all it's worth, anxiety or not. Except for the first day, he's basically done for himself pretty much. First day I cut him some slack as he rode 2 hrs home in Nichole's jeep in 100 some degrees with no ac, took so long cuz they got stuck behind an accident, and it totally wiped him out. Didn't do any favors for lil Oliver either. Made sure Nichole didn't head back home until the baby was properly cooled and hydrated.....by then it wasn't quite so hot. Today he did all drinks / food. I just keep an eye on what he's doing. I told him tomorrow he's going to start walking the house, that he's not even been walking as much as he did at the hospital and that is not going to happen. It's too important he move. And I found his breathing thingie that helps with his lung function.......can't for the life of me remember the name and I've said it a million times sheesh. He hid it. Told him he's going to start using that as well. I wanted him to catch up on some rest before kicking into big time nurse mode. Which he has. He's still napping, but he's actually sleeping when he lies down. So now it's time to get up and start building that strength up. [/QUOTE]
