It had to do with her ability to care for the baby. She was still coming off the anesthesia and absolutely could not take care of him at that moment.

He couldn't care for him either due to disability, but wanted to make either her or me do it. The choice was either that, or waiting 2 hours.

She was terrified, but he kept pestering her. I told him to stop talking for a second and let her make her choice.

If neither of them can physically take care of them, then if you're unoccupied that sounds like something you should volunteer for, no?

I did, and part of it would have been holding the baby for her while she breastfed because she wasn't strong enough yet. But then she started throwing up and she had a terrified expression.

The alternative was waiting 2 hours.
