You're the best :)
The OB told me ...OBoy Mom--<br />You're the best :)<br /><br />The OB told me I shouldn't eat anything because she didn't want to deal with me puking, but then she said it didn't matter because the nurses are the ones that clean up the puke anyway. The nurses at the hospital told me if food sounded good, I could eat whatever I wanted.<br /><br />The midwife told me that having the hep-lock on was the hospital's policy. The nurse at the hospital didn't say whose policy it was, just that I would have to be hooked up to one. This is kind of strange, since you and I are both talking about the same hospital that seems to do and say vastly different things!!<br /><br />P.S. I think you should be my doula!!Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11802460524219101589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-162446952422848634.post-40032213379954702732009-07-29T08:44:28.107-05:002009-07-29T08:44:28.107-05:00Missy- I brought a bagel and a smoothie to the hos...Missy- I brought a bagel and a smoothie to the hospital with me when I went in to have Aidan. While is the process of having the children- I did not want to eat anything- because everything that went in came in one way or another before the children were born. I was happy to to consume cranberry juice on ice. <br />I have never been hooked up to anything- no hep lock for me. If that were the case I would flip out- I can not stand them. Is that your OB's policy- or the hospital? The only time I had a needle near me was a blood sample they did when I had Aidan- and that annoyed me. Anyway- just my thoughts on what you have been told.O'BoyMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10451736108270332183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-162446952422848634.post-70028180422616719982009-07-13T13:00:01.452-05:002009-07-13T13:00:01.452-05:00I know "someone" who has labored in the ...I know "someone" who has labored in the "jacuzzi" for two separate births.

The ER nurses sent me up there to steal snacks, but keep that on the DL. Maybe, Ill chill out in the hottub while Cara is doing baby stuff.
