Thanks to some fairly pleasant medications, I was able to get a good nights sleep, despite not being able to move around too much. By this point both of our families had arrived at the hospital, both completely at a loss for words, but they tried to say and do all of the right things, as much as you can in a situation like this.
At this point there wasn't really too much happening, the baby's heartbeat was still strong, and for now I was still 3 cm dilated...it hadn't gotten worse. I was still in the same room, and they had been allowing me to use the bathroom by myself, but when they saw that the bleeding had not subsided, they decided that I had just used up my last bathroom pass !!! It was to be strict bedrest from that point forward, and they handed me a plastic bedpan .....say what !? Let me just say, that at that particular moment I vowed never to "have to go" ever again !!!! I remember looking at the nurse, and saying REALLY !?....you want me to use THAT !? The answer was simply YES. By this point in time, I had lost my bathroom privileges, I hadn't eaten since breakfast the day before, as they were worried that I would get sick....and now I was confined to this bed !! Good Grief !!! Bring on the laptop, and some movies....it's going to be a LONG day !!!
