TPU Clear Drapes Change the Way Moms Who Have C-Sections Meet Their Babies

Is there anything sweeter than seeing your newborn’s face for the very first time? How about holding them in your arms? For moms who are delivering their babies via a C-section, that precious view and sweet snuggle may now come earlier thanks to changes in the operating room.

Typically, moms who undergo a cesarean will hear their baby’s first cries after they are born, but their first view of their baby may come a few minutes later. This can be really disappointing for any new mom; however, some hospitals are now opting to use partially clear drapes during the procedure to change the entire experience. While an opaque drape on the bottom blocks the incision from view, the top part is clear and lets the mom see her baby as soon as they are born.
