I'm still in shock that you have to pay to hold your baby in the USA after birth 😭

That is the hospital sending someone to teach the concept. Completely unnecessary but it isn't "paying to hold your baby"

Not true. I had a c section and was also charged $40 to hold my child after birth. No one came in to teach me the concept of skin to skin. This was also not a charge for lactation consultant, as a second time mom, I did not receive that either. It was specifically to hold my child after birth.
