My BIL and his wife just had their first child Friday morning, and he stayed at the hospital the whole time. THey left about 9 am Thursday morning. We let the dogs spend about 4 hours at our house Thursday night, then took them home to sleep in their own house. I let them out before work Friday morning, and then they came for a visit Friday night. Saturday morning, we let them out again, their dad came home fora few hours to feed them and get some fresh clothes, and then we stopped back after a wedding last night for one more outie before bed. Today, they spent about 4 hours here this morning, and now everyone is back home.

I would say even if your ferind could hcek in onthem a few times, or spend a couple hours with them, all should be fine.
