[quote=Anonymous]DD was delivered at Inova Loudoun. I was examined repeatedly by both post-partum nurses and CNMs (initially by the CNM that handled delivery, then later 2 exams by the CNM on-call). They palpated the uterus, checked blood/discharge levels, discussed post-partum symptoms, etc. Nurses checked blood pressure every few hours and drew blood every few hours for the first 24 hours post-delivery (PROM, and I think they were monitoring for signs of infection with the bloodwork). We received excellent care. Reading some of these stories, I'm very thankful I had no complications. I didn't realize just how prevalent these issues are, even in this area.[/quote]
