See... that's not on. Bubs should be with you immediately! It's crucial for bonding and for you BM supply.
I tell you what, I'll be beating the midwives off with a stick if they try to take the next baby from me for such a pathetic reason as they did with Gab! I have nightmares about spending the first night without her. She was downstairs all alone (because I saw how no one raced to the babies when they cried in Special Care... so she would have cried and got no hugs ).
