[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not as Sibley but I was able to request a clear drape - it was a double drape and right before they pulled my daughter out they lowered the blue one so I could see her and everyone cheered. They took her to the table for suction and apgar. My husband was able to go stand near and take videos and pictures. It was a few minutes. Then while still in the OR they put her up on high on my chest/neck and the nurse took out first family photos. They finished and took the baby back while they got me on the recovery bed. Again just a few minutes. Then handed her back and I got to keep her on me the entire time in the recovery room. Our nurse had her latch and helped me express some colostrum. I had GD so she needed her sugars checked but was just fine. I got to hold her as we went up to postpartum. It was the best case scenario for a medically scheduled and planned C-section. I agree. That some things you just leave up to the Dr and some that you think you want like a playlist go out the door when it's time and never really mattered. But others like if possible having a clear drape so I can see the second she hits this world was so important to me and I'm so glad I asked and they were helpful in making it happen [/quote] Ugh, this sound horrible to me - mom of two c-section babies. These "birth stories" I find absurd. You'll bond with your baby no matter what, OP. And if you don't, a different "birth story" wouldn't have made any difference.[/quote]
