[quote=Anonymous]I had a horrific experience at GW as well. Oddly enough, it was awful in the exact opposite direction as most others experienced: rather than engaging in risky behavior to avoid a c-section, they pressured me into a c-section that I suspect may not have been medically necessary, and I had an extremely painful recovery with pain even a year after the surgery (possibly because of the skill level of the doctor who performed the c-section). After the surgery, even though the baby was fine there was no skin-to-skin or any effort made to let me hold or even see my child. I first saw the baby in a photo on my husband's phone. Hours after the birth, I had to call out and ask someone passing by if they could please hand me my child, who was placed too far for me to reach (and I was still paralyzed from the waist down, so I couldn't stand up). I had nightmares about the time I spent at GW.[/quote]
