    I am so sorry about the hospital’s mask policy! If you test negative, there should be no issue with being mask-free. As a nurse, personally, I would not enforce that if it all possible. As a patient, I would likely not comply. They won’t kick you out while you’re pushing. Just a thought.🤷‍♀️

    If you put the knives that are on the bottom row the other way (which most people say is upside down) then when you pull them out you don’t dull the knives as fast. Think of how you pull them out…you push down on the knife block, if it’s “upside down” you don’t dull the knife!

    Hey Megan, I just had a baby in February and they were a little more relaxed with masks when I was pushing so I was allowed to take it off… but I actually never ended up taking it off and it was seriously not as hard as I had imagined. There were a couple moments where I pulled it down for some breaths but it mostly wasn’t as hard as I thought it would be. Just wanted to encourage you in that way 🧡also, most of the hospital staff at my hospital didn’t care at all about covid anymore and so depending on your delivery team, they might let it slide if you’re really struggling.

    I wore a mask during labour including pushing. It was technically required but I know my midwives were more than willing to let me take it off if I needed. However, I found it almost helped with controlling my breathing. Pretty sure I would have been panting a lot more and having a much harder time without it. Almost like breathing into a paper bag when you're having a panic attack. Sounds weird, but it seemed to work.

    Hey mama , I had to wear a mask the entire time during labor and delivery and postpartum while in the hospital giving birth to my daughter in 2020 (even though my test came back negative) . It is hard, It was one of the reasons I ended up getting an epidural because I couldn’t properly breathe through my contractions while the nurses were in the room , which is most of the time. However during pushing I almost forgot it was there because I was so focused on pushing. The rules change so often at the hospital so ask when you’re admitted if the rules have changed yet! You got this!

I asked if I could remove my mask once I got into the delivery room and they said absolutely my husband didn’t even have to wear a mask, hopefully that has changed since you filmed 🤞🏻

  • @jenc5492
    @jenc5492 2 года назад +2

    I could not imagine wearing a mask while laboring! My labor was 16 hrs, in January unmedicated, and after testing negative it was my choice whether I still wanted to wear it (I am a big mask supporter too, but couldn't do it). I would have really struggled. Maybe the policy will be different in a couple of weeks? These things are always changing. Or maybe you'll have a quick labor and it won't be so bad :)

This was May 2020 but it’s definitely a challenge. When the nurse and doctors were not in the room I did not have it on. I’m sorry you have to wear a mask. You will kick butt though!!!

    They *probably* won’t enforce that mask policy if your rapid comes back negative. I delivered during height of Omicron and everywhere were signs saying “mask on at all times while provider in room.” Came into L&D at 10 cm and still got a rapid on admit and I remember keeping my mask on for awhile (mostly because I was in full-blown labor and couldn’t think about anything else) but it definitely came off at some point and no one said a word, likely because the rapid was negative. At the same time I will say that I did not notice it being on while it was because I was too distracted by labor so it wasn’t as bad as it sounds!

    I had my baby almost 1.5 years ago, and my hospital had the same policy. I was tested but still had to wear a mask whenever staff entered the room. But for pushing, “it fell off” and no one said anything to me or probably noticed because they were too focused on the baby coming.

    They said I had to wear a mask the whole time during pushing also… but as soon as I mentioned I felt like I may be sick and vomit they let me take it off and keep it off!! (This was Feb 2021). Hope you are able to keep it off also because that is such an unfair rule. I work in longterm care and of course we would never make our patients wear masks... I feel like this should be an expected risk elsewhere in healthcare too.
