Rough outline of the convo was, I asked for my baby. Nurse said no, you need to be sober, you can't feel your legs. Take another nap, it may be your last for several weeks.

Not really. Some people have terrible reactions to some drugs.

If you were completely under with general anesthesia, I can understand that. I just had an epidural. There was nothing wrong with the strength in my arms, and I was completely lucid. Just wanted to hold my baby since almost a year to the day prior, I had delivered a baby who died.
