So should i just accept the fact that an active third stage is required and safer....i really want to avoid a bleed so i can leave hospital ASAP after the birth and as it really affected DH last time. Or should i push for a natural third stage, breastfeeding etc, giving my body chance to do its thing. CONFUSED......
Even if you have an active third stage, this won't stop you having skin to skin straight away and letting bub breastfeed as soon as they are ready.
