beware of the nurses!

Im letting everyone know that when you have your child keep a close eye on him/her cuz when the nurses went to give my son the sugar water stuff... he went into shock instantly got a rash and started puking what ever was in the sugar water made him go into anaphylactic shock and the nurses had the doctors look at him and tryed to tell me that its a new born rash ive never heard or see such a thing in my life he never had that rash or was puking till they gave him sugar water / poisen  dont trust any of them they're all covering for each other and I even heard another nurse come and tell the other nurses that the lady in room ... didn't want any more tests done on her child like she was neglecting her child I think she was smart for saying no more tests and I did the same its my child I took control and am keeping my child safe from all there tests. My child is not there test rat.

They have used sweet ease on my second baby many times it's used to calm them Down its nothing that harms them and having things done like a heel poke is normal for right after birth and at 24 he check. I'm sure they weren't intentionally testing anything or doing anything to harm your precious new baby , yes you will run into crabby nurses who are there for a paycheck but most love there jobs and hAve a passion  for bringing these helpless tiny loveable miracles into the world. I'm going on baby #3 and I'm very strong on rooming in and no nursery and when they do the 24 he test me or my spouse are present not because of not trusting what they do but it's in our birth plan not to leave our babys side !

Yes I have heard of this. The sugar water, and giving breastfed babies bottles etc not about the pain med though!? Wth. That's y my babies never leave mine or my husband's sight or our room for any reason! If they need to do something like check vitals and exam they can do it in the room!

I looked it up and they don't give baby sugar water unless their blood sugar is low.

He was prolly allergic to it... but I don't think nurses are maliciously harming babies. Not saying you're lying at all, but you might be just paranoid
