The end to a miserable day:
Just Another Day:
Yesterday pretty much did end up being just another day. My appointment got canceled because my MW had to get to the hospital to deliver a baby. While I realize at a lot of practices this wouldn't happen because there is always some one to take over their patients. My office though only consists of my midwife and the OB she works with, and the nurses of course. Also this rarely happens, maybe 3 times since I started going there in Sept of '08. And they typically call to reschedule before you get to the office. Yesterday it just so happened that she got the call just before my appt though and the girl was at 9, almost 10. While I know some people would have thrown a fit (I've heard stories from the receptionist) I don't mind. I remember my nurse waiting until I was at 10 to even call and then wouldn't let me do anything until the OB got there. That was the longest most horrible pain of my life and the only time during my whole labor that I asked for something for the pain. Not to mention the only time during my 24 hours of labor that I was even remotely rude. I believe after the 3rd contraction I was told to not push through my words were "Where the f*ck is she, her office is only 2 F*cking blocks away!" And yes I knew she was at the office cause when I was only 8cm the hour before they told me she was there. Alas, no appt yesterday, it was rescheduled for Monday afternoon. I did weigh myself though and I'm still only up 5lbs, so I'm happy with that, should me based on MW scale I haven't gained anything.
My miserable Tuesday didn't end much better. I was feeling ok when I got home, but I was tired and my stomach was off. Lillian was slightly miserable too so B told us to go in the bedroom where it was cooler and watch a movie. I certainly didn't object. He went out to do some yard work. In a half hours time Lilli decided she had to go to the bathroom 3 times. While normally this would make me ecstatic because she peed, pooped and peed again on the potty, this wasn't the case. Every time I had to get I started feeling increasingly sick. B came in just in time. I was laying on the bed and just couldn't move, if I did the only place I was going was to the bathroom to lose whatever may have been in my stomach. B could tell I was miserable and helped Lilli with whatever it was she needed. I ended up passing out around 6 or 6:30. I remember being woke up around 7:30 for something and then again at 9. Neither time did I have any trouble falling back asleep and didn't wake up again until my alarm went off at 4! Apparently I really needed the sleep!

Eh, I'm done for today, that's enough rambling. Tomorrow's post is most likely going to be about biting, I bet you can't wait!
