Congratulations!!
Congrats! Try your best to get some rest. It's totally different when you get home. Just relax while BFing. They feel your tension too. Sometimes they aren't hungry right away. Take it easy and follow the docs directions like the sitz bath. I am surprise you didn't have an IV of Antibiotics for the Strep. Most ladies I know have it during labor.Originally Posted by kscatlady
We have to stay 2-3 days. I had group B strep, not a big deal a bacteria that lives on your skin at sometimes, but it can make the baby sick. Chances are low, even if I had no treatment for it, but I was in labor long enough to get two courses. So he'll be ok, its just their policy.
I haven't been able to sleep yet. The nurses pretty much stayed out for quite a while, I just didn't want to put him down yet! MIL is coming soon, so hopefully DH and I can get some sleep before the flood of visitors.
He's doing better at feeding. He's just not too hungry yet. I'm worried about how it will work with the visitors. Guess, they'll just have to leave.
