Hi, um I'm really struggling at the moment, Matthew was born on Sunday (30/01) at 35+2 and we are both still in hospital as I had an emergency c section after a ruptured placenta.
he is doing amazingly after being on oxygen to begin with and then having light therapy, he now has an infection in the umbilical cord but it is clearing up with antibiotics, also he finally breast fed today, only a little but it's a start!
And although everything is heading in the right direction with him, I myself am feeling so down, I am in my own room in the hospital (which i am loving) but I can hear the babies in the ward crying and it's making me cry thinking about my little man all alone in scbu! I'm dying to be able to have him with me and well take him home! I don't feel like a proper mum to him yet and it's killing me! Also I may be discharged before he is, and i don't known if I will be able to handle it! I really do not want to leave here without my baby!
How did you cope if you had a baby in scbu?
Please I would appreciate any help going!
