To not wish for a Midwife Care Assistant to grab my baby from me in my own home and proceed to push my baby's head into my breast to demonstrate 'her' breastfeeding ideal?

Not only that she had to carry out the heel prick test twice, and on the second occasion decided to hang my dd3 over her legs on her tummy (she still has cord clip attached!) She then decides to scare me by telling me that baby has lost 10 percent of weight and will be measured again in 2 days because she is concerned. My milk has only just come through...!

When she left, I just wanted to cry. I have been feeling great up to this point.

I now just wish to get on with it, without any more interference. Do I have to accept more visits?

I remember one day having problems getting Tink to latch on, I'd been sent to the feeding room on my own, one of the NN nurses came in, grabbed my hand (the one that was holding the head) and said "Tink, meet Mummy" as she pushed her on! At that point she was having one feed a day so it was far more important that she learnt to latch and feed than I did (at 31 weeks you're expecting to have at least 5 weeks in hospital). I know they would never have done that if it was on the PN ward. The difference is that the mother is going to go home (or the MW if it's in the mother's home) and have no one there to do it for them. How helpful is that?
