The first hour after birth is when you have undisturbed skin-to-skin contact with your baby.
The golden hour after birth is a truly magical time.
As you hold your new bundle of joy in your arms, take a moment to soak in the beauty of this moment. You both just went through a lot during the birth process, and now is the time to breathe, look at the child that you’ve been waiting for the past 9+months to see what they look like, and, if you’re breastfeeding, get their first latch.
The first hour after birth is incredibly important for both your baby and you as a mother.
Not only is this time special for the emotional connection, but it’s also crucial for the baby’s physical well-being. It’s a time for baby to regulate their temperature, and stabilize their blood sugar, and the skin-to-skin contact helps you start producing hormones that help you breastfeed.
It’s a time when you get to snuggle your sweet baby and take a moment to calm down and distress.
You are now a mother, and the love and sacrifice you will make for this little one are immeasurable. You will be amazed at their strength and resilience you never knew you had.
Take this time to rest, bond, and cherish the first precious moments with your baby. You are a warrior, a nurturer, and a protector. You have brought life into this world, and that is something truly remarkable.
