My good friend is going to have a baby soon in the hospital. Can anyone tell me if the baby is handed to the mother directly first for a while before all this happens?

Her first experience of life and it's friggin' traumatic. Good job, healthcare system!

This is why I had a home birth.

Thanks for the walking me through the immediate care of a newborn. Very informative and educational and I found the movie helpful.

@kristy349349 Not so...my uncle is one of these most strongest person I know (not really sensitive by any means) and he had bad birth trauma...it left him with headaches, migraines and a fear of small places. He was a shoulder distocia where his nurse freaked out and tried to push him back in...he almost died and was left in the birth canal too long. You should read more into it (BTW Americans are far from the perfect example)

@JayJayHale ok whatever. im just saying it must take a really really really sensitive person to be traumatized by birth since americans, canadians etc, are born in hospitals that we r extremely lucky to even have

@kristy349349 My daughter was prem and she was a nice easy gentle birth.There are a lot of issues in adulthood that can be traced back to birth and early childhood. I'm not saying that you have issues because of birth but for many people it does cause problems later on.

@JayJayHale umm no actually i was premature so no I did not have a "nice" birth
-
@kristy349349 That you know of...or you may have had a really nice birth.
The best care for a newborn is to stay with mama...not be taken away and be put through traumatic useless procedures.
