@hageeministries I was positive, was told I could have a hep lock but the hospital vetoed it when I was there. I wasn't really coherent enough to care at that point.
But I did get thrush immediately upon his birth. No one believed me for a few days, until I reminded them I had antibiotics during labour, and they entertained the idea as in "we don't really think you have this, but you're so insistent that we'll treat you since the treatment won't hurt."
Now I battle with thrush constantly. No one told me that of you get it once, you're very likely to get it again.
Take lots of probiotics right afterwards. Lots! Even if you aren't showing any signs of thrush.
Edit: I wanted to add that I found bring in the shower the best thing for the pain, and the IV meant that I had to get out of the shower, and then I didn't really get back in.
