hospital requests?

Question

What are some of your requests or plans for labor? For example, two of mine are to do immediate skin to skin and breast feed asap.

Answer

I honestly don't have a plan at all. I'm just going to go with the flow. My doctor knows I want to breastfeed so I'd hope that if they needed to take her the the nursery for any reason they don't give her formula.

Answer

Draft of my birth plan.
Delayed clamping, delayed exams, immediate skin to skin...

Answer

I'm just going with the flow. My only goal is a safe delivery of my tiny human to the world. After delivery though I don't want them to wash my girl (just wipe her off, leave the vernix in place until we get home) and I want to be allowed plenty of skin to skin time

Answer

I know things do not always go as planned I just want to know if there are any other things I would like to request. In my hospital they usually place the baby right on your chest unless you request otherwise but I never breast fed before they were given formula so I want to ask about that this time

Answer

I am very go with the flow. Our hospital encourages an hour of skin to skin before anything so i dont have to worry...
This pregnancy is so unknown for me tho... We are having twins so i feel like 😐😶??

Answer

I am asking to delay the clamping of the cord. My mast son was born at home and we did not know what to do we did not immediately clamp his cord and he is very advanced. I'm not sure if that had anything to do with he development but it can't hurt.

Answer

My few requests are that the atmosphere be as subdued as possible(lights dimmed, limited comings & goings, etc) and for my Midwife to guide me while pushing to limit tearing.
