As for a handprint/footprint...you are on your own! Trust me when I tell you it's not very easy to get those beautiful looking handprints and footprints because they don't like straightening out their fingers or they will curl their toes.

Then when you are discharge they provide you with a release sheet that has the name of the doc, the time of delivery, what kind of delivery it was, if it was a multiple or single birth, if it was a live birth, your name, dh's name, weight, ect. I think you have to hand a copy to your family doc, or at least that was what I was advised to do. </P><P><FONT color=#1f5080 size=2>As for the footprint - i don't remember them doing that with my son at all. </FONT>Wed, 09 Jul 2008 13:17:09 GMTjenoneillhttp://forums.canadianbride.com/Topic428246-15-1.aspxI was wondering something... when you have your baby at the hospital, does a nurse write down the time of the birth, the baby's weight and height etc etc? Or should we bring a notepad from home and dh write it down? I was just thinking that there's no way I'll be able to remember my baby was born at 3:02 weighing 7 lb 4 oz or whatever. How does that work?<br><br>Also, does the staff tend to take a hand print/foot print of the baby for you? Do you have to bring paper with you for them to do it? Or is that something that I would do at home?<br><br>Thanks ladies!Wed, 09 Jul 2008 13:10:30 GMTChantalC
