I think poor Roland is succumbing to a bit of that nervous excitement now LOL the contractions are coming along a *little* more regularly (but still not enough), so I am going to still head off for that nap ! You're right about me needing all the rest I can get at this rate.

Will still try and keep updating but no promises about consistency ok ?

LOL I had thought about that ! I'm such a geek

Anyway, midwife has said things are looking good. However, if we're not in established labour by around 7-8pm ish tonight, we will probably need to go in to the hospital instead of Birthcare, and have antibiotics administered. Then, it's also possible labour will need to be given a 'hurry up', but we'll see. Still gunning for Birthcare at this stage

Am just having lunch, lots of fluids, and planning a nap after this.]]> Wed, 12 Jul 2006 13:06:18 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3092&PID=58044&title=jax#58044 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3092&PID=58042&title=jax#58042 Author: Roksana

Disclaimer: I'm not actually angry at any one person or place or whatever, it's the goddamn hormones !!

It's really really not the being late that bothers me the most, that comes down to natural impatience and having always been the easily bored type. I just don't want to end up in the HOSPITAL ! Yuck yuck yuck yuck and YUCK.

I guess it's just another one of life's challenges to get me to work on my acceptance and flexibility. I'm sure things WILL be fine *sigh* Did I mention I'm naturally stubborn as well ?

As much as some days I just want to crawl into a hole and forget about it all, I really do appreciate all the support I get here.

Well, I hope she does too!

In a nutshell, my midwife is on leave from Friday. Her backup midwife cannot deliver at Birthcare. Should I go into labour naturally after Friday, that means labour and delivery at North Shore hospital and transferring to Birthcare.

Should I not go into labour naturally over the weekend, I will have to go in for a quick check up at the hospital anyway, and we are likely to book an induction for next Wednesday, and the only 'up' side to this being that my midwife should be back by then. She has said we would try and just break my waters first, but would otherwise need the drip. However, the syntocinon = no water birth, and I wouldn't even be able to get into the pool ! I could still transfer to Birthcare though, and it would mean sharing a room, we can't afford to pay especially for a private one.

I had a stretch and sweep at my appointment with my midwife today, and have my acupuncture visit tomorrow. The acupuncturist said we would be likely to have two treatments, the first being more of a preparation for labour, and then a follow up two days later with an actual 'induction' treatment. However, I am going to ask her if we can go the induction route tomorrow in any case, as it can take up to 48 hours to kick in, if at all.

So, in a nutshell, Jax = not happy.

When I picked Roland up from work and told him all of this he packed a sh*tty, so I packed a sad right back at him, and we drove home in utter silence - not fun. Fixed that up by cleaning the kitchen until it was spotless and vacuuming the whole house, and then having a good blub and cuddle (and a cup of raspberry leaf tea, just for the hell of it).

I want this baby OUT !


Edited to add: And what doesn't help is that on top of it all, I'm annoyed with myself for getting upset over this in the first place - Erin's wellbeing comes first, no matter what ! I can't control how / when I go into labour, not realistically, and I have always maintained I will just accept whatever happens. I think, no... I know I can still come to grips with this, I guess I am only human and struggle to deal with change like everyone else. Things will be fine. *breathes out*

I checked in to the Due in July thread, I think. Just not having a very flash morning, that's all - slept VERY badly last night and only got through making some chocolate chip rice bubble squares before deciding to pack it in and head back to bed. So much stuff to do today and I can't be arsed, but at the same time, the longer it gets left undone... the more irritated I get ! Can't win it seems. Midwife and physio appointments tomorrow, something to look forward to I guess?
