[quote=Anonymous]Three different babies in three different hospitals - 2 vaginal and one c section.
Postpartum was great. Nurses were helpful and when they came to check me or baby, they would change the diaper of needed and then reswaddle. Then offer baby to me of time to eat or put baby in bassinet if I wanted to sleep.

We did diaper changes and swaddles in between but nurses.never left a dirty diaper. Nurses were a little aggressive with trying to help breastfeeding. Hit or miss with LCs. They come only during the day and usually once.during your stay. Nurses would try to help if I was having trouble. Honestly with all three kids it took a while to get all the factors together and get it right and that happened at home.

People came and went but I was able to sleep just fine. I mean you are up every 2 hours to feed anyway. During the day DH would hold baby and watch TV whole I napped..maybe because I have been hospitalized for other things, but I never found the checks or medication problematic. It felt normal.

Had my C-section during COVID and DH was home with other two kids..nurses were amazing and helpful and did diaper changes,.helped me get in and out of bed, changed baby for me..one even offered to take baby to nurses station for 2 hours to let.me.sleep.

People who had negative experiences.tend to post but I don't think postpartum has to be negative[/quote]
