[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Please please do not put so much pressure on having the optimal post birth experience. It really and truly does not impact your relationship with your baby and then kid. Unless you let it negatively impact it. My twins were in the nicu for months - no skin to skin for weeks. Did not matter at all. 
Births are unpredictable.  You need to be able to roll with it - good prep for entirety of parenthood. Your baby will love you even if you don’t hold him/her for 1 hr/1 week/1 month/1 year. [/quote]

This this this.  There seems to be this movement of needing this amazing birth experience or you're a failure (See below PP who felt like a failure for not having a magical eye locking moment).  I don't know if it's mommy bloggers or what but it's so so damaging.  I had a pretty horrific labor.   I just had to roll with the punches or I think I would have mentally shut down during and after.  DS is a teenager and I can 100% say that his birth did not play into the relationship we have.
