I’m a FTM and only 17 weeks along, but have been researching the health benefits of skin to skin care after birth. I absolutely want to do it for the recommended hour (at least). I also want it to just be me, my husband and the baby for that hour (or more). But feel kind of guilty making our families wait more. Can anyone share their experience in doing this after birth? Thanks!

Edit: here is a screenshot from Medscape that summarizes some of the health benefits.
