I did good

I have to say that I am willing to give the instructor a little slack as she went in twice to check the baby and both times mom was trying to breastfeed, (she was not real sure of herself and we wanted her to keep trying) and the staff nurse told her it was fine as long as the respirations were not elevated. While my instructor is an MSN she has limited OB exposure and took the word of others with more experience, bad move for her but she knows better now.

While my chest is a bit puffy I realise that without my instructors guidance earlier I would never have been concerned enough to keep nagging the staff and my student relief to follow up on this so she deserves some credit for being a good teacher if nothing else.

But thanks, I don't want to tell any of my other students about this in detail and make them start doubting the considerable expertise of our instructor and staff nurses that seems to have just suffered a break down in this one case, so it's good to get a little validation from someone that understands.
