[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t think hospitals allow skin to skin during c-sections. I asked for it at WHC and Sibley. Both were scheduled c-sections with no complications, and they wouldn’t allow it. The shaking is also common, although I didn’t have it as bad at Sibley. I definitely did not want a clear drape, so it’s not something I asked for. But at Sibley there’s a mirror over the operating table, and they told me to avoid looking at it if I didn’t want an eyeful. [/quote] The skin to skin thing is so weird. My baby was shoved on me with no warning while my blood pressure cuff was going off, I kept saying "I'm worried she'll fall. Is she going to fall?". I was crying because it was an unexpected C-section due to failed induction, which is supposedly only a 2% chance after a vaginal birth, which I'd had. For the next baby I flat out said I don't want to hold the baby until recovery. My first baby was plopped on me with an APGAR score of 3, totally blue, limp, not breathing. All midwives, BTW. Im glad other people had good midwives but mine were morons. [/quote]
