[QUOTE="eabhamurphy, post: 1534136, member: 21358"] Hi there, I had an induction that was terribly managed and ended in an emergency c section. My baby had a similar blood sugar to yours so was given premature infant formula to bring it up and his blood sugar tested regularly for a number of days until consistently normal. We were not separated but due to his needing formula to raise blood sugars and my stress level were high meaning my milk came in late and I couldn't figure out breastfeeding. I felt it was beyond me at the time and I struggled with all manner of things I usually find easy. I found they were really into promoting breastfeeding but not into creating the environment to allow this to be successful. I was too traumatised after the birth experience. I am very sad to hear you were separated from your baby so soon after birth. Next time I'm just going to have a c section so I'm hopeful that will be a more positive experience.
