Soon after birth, the baby will receive ilotycin ophthalmic ointment to prevent gonococcal (not staph aureus) infections and a vitamin K injection, which is vital to prevent hemorrhage. As long as the baby looks well, the baby will most likely be placed skin-to-skin on the mother’s chest immediately after delivery. The baby would only be assessed if the baby were showing signs of distress. Neonates are the most likely to breastfeed immediately after birth then get sleepy for the next few hours.
