This is actually a smart move. You wouldn’t want to be there with common cold or flu either
Yeah I don't think Covid is a big deal, but when talking about not only a newborn, but a pretty premature one, as the parent I wouldn't even want to risk being around my child if I knew I had something like that. Especially a respiratory virus that could absolutely be dangerous to the baby.

This how babies get swapped

The baby doesn't have a respiratory illness. The father doesn't even have symptoms and he can't see his first child until she is over two weeks old.
Doesn’t matter if you have symptoms you could still give a 2 week premature baby covid and his immune system and lungs aren’t developed enough so the infant is high risk
I know you’re ready to hold your newborn but be smart about it. If he was born naturally you wouldn’t be seeing her for a couple more weeks anyways so think of it that way

I'm saying it's fricking insane to keep two parents, who have been trying to have a child for 10 years, from looking through a window at their daughter for the first 10-14 days of her life.
Stop being a drama queen. It’s for the good of not only that baby, but the other babies in there.
Not to mention the staff.
My wife (no pics) is a Hospital Supervisor at a major hospital here in Charleston. They’re severely limiting visitation to the NICU, Nursery, and Peds units because of not only Covid, but RSV and flu. Pretty much on a daily basis she has to defuse irate Shaniqua’s who can’t understand why she and her assorted brood of 8-10 kids can’t have carte blanche visitation.
I work ICU in a different hospital, we have a couple of Covid pts, but currently we actually have more critically ill flu pts than Covid.

The parents BOTH have Covid. Why on earth would they want to be near their premature baby? 34 weeks is pretty early, and those little lungs need time to develop.
Parenting is often about sacrificing everything for your children. Good luck to everyone, and a speedy recovery for the mom!

What in the actual frick?
We are 3 years into this shite and medical "professionals" are once again acting like it's a global killer.
if doctors abide by parents directives of seeing their baby and the baby dies, would you be ok with charging parents with murder?

They could have avoided this restrictive practice if they had just stayed home to have the baby. The mistake they made was in going to the hospital because of a foolish fear of dieing (killing mother and baby) at home. IMO they subjected themselves to the hospital's rules when they entered the ospital as a patient.
Tell dad he can whack a doctor, steal his lab coat and sneak into the pediatric ICU to visit the little whipersnapper. If he is unhappy when he sees the baby, he can then kidnapp it. That will teach them not to restrict his will to do whatever the hell he wants in their hospital.
insert sarcastricks here.

But, calling it an inconvenience is really not understanding the cost of a mother not being available to her child. That IS a travesty that will have significant negative impact. It just seems like it's an unfortunate necessity.
Would you prefer that Mom deal with the death of her child instead if they contract a respiratory virus at such an immunocompromised state?
That’s the reality and why they screen so vigorously for ANY sign of illness before entering a NICU.

They are literally put in an incubator bubble and nobody touches them without gloves or masks. And this is far before covid existed

You have obviously never stepped into any NICU setting based on your posts
Posted on 12/1/22 at 9:58 am to TideSaint
They must not be jabbed, because if they were they'd be immune AND wouldn't be able to conceive.

But, just to show you weight is no indicator, I was 10lbs 2 oz and in nicu. Swallowed fluid upon delivery and was touch and go for a week. My parents never held me until I was 6 days old. This was in 1987……Damn covid policies

Healthy babies carried to full term should be closer to 8 pounds.
And premature is premature. Anything born before 37 weeks is considered premature and would be in an incubator.
You sound like a fricking idiot.

It's not just for the sake of their own kid, it's for the benefit of every kid in the NICU, you goddamned moron. Do you realize how at-risk those babies are?
And if the Covid positive person got a NICU nurse sick? Then what?
You can 100% believe that that the vast majority of Covid policies were counterproductive and, in many cases, outright destructive while still understanding that it is a pretty deadly disease to a lot of people with preemie newborns being right at the top of the list.

Link me once where I said the parents were going, or were asking, to step into the NICU. Just once.
Good luck.
