"Postnatal care - mixed feeling"

I stayed at the postnatal care unit for 3days at Royal hospital for women after an emergency cesarean. The care I received was some what mixed. 

The first midwife I met on the ward, Claire, was a young, passionate and professional midwife who taught me and my partner with patience and enthusiasm. We want to thank her for her kindness and dedication during our stay. 

The experience was counter balanced with another midwife offering unhelpful remarks. For example, our baby had a nappy leak in the middle of the night during breast feeding on the bed. I asked if they could help change my bedsheets as it was soiled (would have done it myself but the wound pain was bad) and was told, do I not know how to put on a nappy and that I better learn quickly how to do it or else I’ll be spending the rest of our lives doing laundry. I felt vulnerable at the time and didn’t stand up for myself to say anything. Yes I know how to put on a nappy. Looking back, I feel it would have been a lot better if they showed more compassion and less criticism.
