The nurse checked up on my every half hour, no change
every one hour, no change
I got moved to a different room since it seems that labor was not going to happen anytime soon.
They continued to watch me for another day before moving me to postpartum so I could have a more comfortable rest and leave the LAB room for those in need.
I still had contraction every now and then. They got more frequent and painful around early in the morning, yet I hadn't dilated any more than 3cm. At least I got fed.
Finally, on the third day, the doctor decided to let me bed rest at home. The nurse gave us specific instruction of what to do and what not and what signs to look out for. When they took the IV off, I was so relieved.
I love the hospitality of all of my nurses. They were very nice and caring, kept telling me to let them know if I needed anything. I was disappointed for not being able to meet Emmy, but this is for the best. I hope she get to be full term when she decides to come out.
My hubby was my greatest support. He stayed with me the whole time, held my hand when I was in pain, helped me get out of bed to use the restroom, gave me massage. Poor him, he was so excited thinking he would be holding Emmy soon.
For me, starting my bed rest day, 6 weeks until my due date, I wonder how long I have to be bed rest.
