They made my fiance wear a mask during labor.

They expect us both to wear one continuously, even while alone together with our newborn, for the entire 48h+ stay here.

My condolences to your infant and their having to grow up in this shit world.

Taking "cute" photos of the newborn enveloped in a face shield has become popular where I work. I lose more faith in people every day.

That is so dangerous. I’m glad she and the baby made it through delivery under the lack of oxygen. Life changing defects can be caused by a lack of oxygen at birth.

She ended up getting c-section. She threw up during OR prep and that was enough for them to allow her to skip it.

Are you still in the hospital? Just keep accidentally getting blood on the mask.
