Ok, long post. Todays news.
Went in at 8.30am to be monitored, cervix was open and membranes bulging. MW said they could easily be broken but if I wanted could go home and have it done there and still get my HB. Registrar said I should stay in but an hour later I was contracting well so came went home. Called MW about 2.30pm, contractions going well but she told me she could not break my waters at home and also that bubs is actually back to back and that's why I'm having so many problems getting going. Told me to walk up and down stairs which I did and they stopped. Due to her position I decided that enough was enough and I would go back in to have my waters broken and stay there. MW rang in and said they had space so off we went for the 2nd time (hour each way). Got to hospital to find out that not only should she have gone with us but that she didn't speak to the co-ordinator and they were too busy but if we waited they would do it. Left in a room for 3 hours then they said it couldn't be done tonight by which time I was hysterical. So I've discharged myself now, no HB pack at home anymore, still irregular contractions and an hour from the hospital. I am a failure, don't want to be pregnant right now, had enough!!!Too many children, too little time!!!0 -
