Good question!
LOl I am picturing you planning around taking care of a baby with a long cord like that hanging off of it. They usually don't have that whole tail attached to them though. Both of mine were born at home so we do a lot of things different but this is what it usually looks like when you get the critter handed over:

See! Much more manageable right?
Again Rick, I am so happy for you. Your little guy is super duper cute!
