We also had a family room, to ourselves, for 3-4 days post-birth over Christmas. I was also the one who got the most instruction too.
It does have to be said that the rest of the talk/instruction/help was very focussed upon the mother (as you'd expect). I remember that all the meals we were provided with had labels:
* The meals for the mother had her full-name on them.
* The meals for me just said "father".
- InitialLastName 7y agoTo some extent, the meals thing is probably just because the mother is the one who is the admitted patient, so her name will be readily on record. As the father is likely both a) not in need of even a contingency of medical care related to the birth process and b) not even necessarily well-established, present, or even alive at time of birth, I can see that being a more ephemeral label.
