Peep this article i found on fb... Im 50/50 on this... I think we all need a few hrs rest after a long labor..Even a csection and being all loopy on morphine lol.. we need our rest!! But.. i do like the idea of baby bein wit me 24/7.. What yalll think???

After what can be endless hours of labor, what a new mother often wants is some time to herself (to sleep, let’s be real). While many new mothers prefer to keep a new baby in their rooms with them, others feel comfortable letting the baby spend some time in the hospital’s nursery under the care of the nursing staff.

For new moms delivering at certain hospitals around the country, this will no longer be an option.According to PopSugar approximately 355 “baby-friendly” hospitals have eliminated the nursery room entirely, and the number will reach 530 by the end of 2017.

The idea behind this is to encourage mothers to keep their babies in the room after giving birth. If the baby is close by, the mother is more likely to be the one who will meet her child’s needs. This initiates parent-child bonding at the earliest possible stage.

“The research is abundant,” according to what Lori Pugsley, the newborn family units nursing director at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston—one of the hospital’s that’s done away with the communal nursery—told Today. “It shows the benefits of keeping a mom and baby together in a room really creates an environment that’s the healthiest for the baby and the healthiest for the mothers.”

idt they shld expect you to have them right away. idt that is wld be completely safe if mom is all loopy from drugs and or exhausted from going through labor. plus not all women have the baby's father their to help. I think it shld be optional to have baby in room or not. I plan to but I get why other might not want to
