My first hour was skin2skin contact with my son before they took him to the nursery for the necessary tests. I waited for about 4hours in the delivery ward as B2+ was full. By the 4th hour, they said they would bum me up to A2 if it's still full but alas, I got B2+ anyways. The next hours were tiring. Baby was co-sleeping with me so that meant breastfeeding every 1 to 2 hours. I also had caterer, but they took it off before evening (I gave birth at 630am). I was tired, sleepy and a few times I told the nurses to bottle feed my son because I couldn't take it anymore. The nurses at KK hospital are quite persistant about breastfeeding so it gets tiring.
