[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Its unbelievably misogynistic that only postpartum mothers are expected to take care of themselves while also caring for a newborn. A patient in any other part of the hospital is cared for by nurses. And not expected to care for an infant 24-7 while also recovering from a major medical procedure. I mean, come on![/quote] But why doesn't anyone else see this?!! Why does it feel like moms are the only ones who notice? And for those of you arguing the costs- I don't need an RN to staff the nursery. Hospital techs can do it or even LPNs. Or hell, just provide a room and the baby's grandparents can soothe the baby in there while the mom rests after surgery/labor. My MIL was extremely upset she had to even see me after labor. She thought she could just go hang in the nursery with the baby like her parents did in the 80s. She didn't care about me and didn't want to see me in pain, just the new baby. [/quote]
