Re: [ozmidwifery] babies in recovery room

[Dierdre Bowman]

I just wanted to make a late reply to Cas regarding the babies in recovery. It is my experience that this is not normal practice at least in a couple of hospitals I know of in Brisbane.  Mum gets to see baby maybe for a couple of minutes and then baby is wisked away, usually in it's cot back to birth suits with dad, while mum gets sutured up.   You were very blessed to get your babies in recovery.   Dierdre B.
