The Golden Hour After Birth & Delaying Newborn Procedures

Newborn procedures. Making informed decisions! Today we’re talking about the the Golden Hour after birth, the birthing person and the baby are both catching their breath/learning to breath and adjusting to this new reality. There are many benefits of delaying newborn procedures (weighing, measuring, baby exam, vit K and eye ointment, etc.) for an hour or two. Delay newborn procedures: -Prioritize skin to skin -Weighing, measuring, exam, vitamin K, eye ointment...these can all wait an hour or two. -In addition, if the birthing person received IV fluids during the birth, the baby's weight will be artificially increased until the baby's had a chance to urinate some of the excess out. An artificially increased weight may also lead to concerns about the infant's 'excessive' weight loss in the first 24 hours, which may just be IV fluids making it's way out. -Consider delaying the first bath for at least 12 hours or so. So much of birth is unpredictable. Learn as much as you can before your baby arrives! Do your research. Reflect on your own perspectives on intense physical experiences, medicine, & risk. Talk to your Doctor, Obstetrician, or Midwife. Make informed decisions. This video is part of my ongoing weekly Brave Journey birth preparation videos where I pick a topic related to birth or postpartum, and talk about it. Let me know any thoughts or ideas for future videos.
