My Birth Plan

This is my 2nd csection and for the most part i know what to expect.I had a horrible experience with my first birth that resulted in me developing PPD, so this birthplan is mainly concerning my son and what happens with him following his birth.I understand rules ,but i would like my wishes to be followed as they are allowed because this is something that i will never forget so id like for it to be a happy memory.

* I do not want my arms restrained and if they have to be then i want them to be released when i am introduced to my baby so that i can touch and hold him with out having to fight with the straps.

*i would like my baby held up right after he is born- before he has been cleaned off for me to see him.

* I would like to hold my baby MYSELF immediately after he is cleaned and wrapped in a blanket.

*I prefer my baby to remain on my chest, in my arms, or in my birth partners arms throughout suturing, recovery, etc.

*If my baby needs extra attention i would like my birth partner to stay with the baby at all times.

*I prefer to begin breastfeeding the baby as soon as possible after birth, WITHIN the FIRST HOUR and i would like to have the hospitals lactation consultant present for my first feeding if shes available.

*I plan to exclusively breastfeed and i DO NOT want my baby given any formula, bottles, or pacifiers of ANY kind without it being discussed with me BEFORE hand.

* i would like non separation for recovery period if its allowed, if not then i would like my son brought to me as soon as i get to my room so i can begin breastfeeding and bonding, i do not want to wait hrs to see him.

*I would like my baby to stay with me at all times, unless there is a need for him to be in the nursery.
