They had saved me my meal (dinner time is usually at 5pm) so Kenny and the kids got to watch me eat! Roxanne and Callum were so excited it was hectic! Roxanne was beside herself ..couldnt wait for the baby to be born...Callum was excited because 'Sissy' was excited ..so the pair of them tore around the room like mad things - hiding in the wardrobe and playing in the bathroom. heres a good place to comment about the room.. talk about luxury! I was so spoiled!~ we dont have private health insurance but there is no way we could have got better accomodation in a private hospital! The room was about twice the size of our bedroom - with its own private ensuite bathroom...!!!! The bathroom had an enormous bath - huge shower ...cupboard to store all my personal toiletries...Fantastic! There was an excellant gas heating system in the room which i could regulate to suit myself and everything in the room to care for a baby ( bathing facilities,changing area etc) |
Somewhere around this time the other midwife on duty poked her head around the door and my nurse urgently called for her to ring the doctor!
I was amazed when i realised the dr hadnt been called at that stage..it was around 10 to 5am.
Soon they brought him to me and i had him 'unwrapped' and placed against my skin - they piled blankets on top of him as he was very cold. We stayed like that for about half an hour (i think) until the dr had given me a little local and stitched me up - |
