I had an emergency C-section at South Health Campus, and I wasn’t given the chance to do skin-to-skin with my baby or even hold him right away. I was very drowsy from the medication, but it still would have been nice to have that moment.
The hospital also started giving my baby formula immediately. I’m still struggling with breastfeeding and don’t really have a milk supply yet. I can’t stop wondering whether my milk might have come in if the hospital had encouraged breastfeeding more from the beginning.
I would love to hear about other moms’ experiences with C-sections and breastfeeding
