Re: contacts or eye glasses during labor?

Well I had my contacts in during labor and I ended up needing a C section and I just left them in.... I can't remember when I finally took them off, LOL.

Re: contacts or eye glasses during labor?

with my DD i had my contacts in during labor and my eyes got really dried out, and i forgot my eye drops and case to put them in so we were searching over the hospital to get them.
Thankfully this time around i've since had lasik so im just going to bring my rewetting drops.
FYI: If you go with the contacts, make sure to bring rewetting drops

I'll keep my contacts in. I've been wearing contacts for 15 years and they never bother me. I hate wearing glasses.

They advised me to take my contacts out during labor. So, I wore my glasses, which was fine.

Re: contacts or eye glasses during labor?

I wore my glasses during labor. I NEVER wear, them but the last thing I wanted were my eyes to bother me while pushing- I didn't want to strain them...

It was no big deal... I wasn't looking so hot...contacts would not have made a differenceChat Icon

Re: contacts or eye glasses during labor?
