On that first day of Abigail’s life, Klobuchar’s friends and relatives called to find out when they could visit her in the hospital. “We lied and signed the forms,” Klobuchar said. She rolled out of the maternity ward still wearing her hospital gown, heading to a $50-a-night hotel, where she would get precious little sleep. Klobuchar stayed in the gown for three days, hurrying back and forth to the hospital all night long. Her baby would stay in the hospital for a week and then face a precarious and scary first year.
