Trip to the Hospital

Well it has been a couple of days but on Wednesday DH and i had a trip to the hospital. The problem was that i had a bit of bleeding. I noticed there was some spotting on the toilet paper when i went to the toilet. Being paranoid like i am i always check when i go to the toilet.

I rang the hospital and i was very calm as i didn't know if there was a problem or that i was fact going into labour and i just didn't feel the contractions. They asked me a few questions and asked me to pack an over night bag just in case. As DH was at work and it would take 20 minutes to get to me i called him and told him that i was feeling fine and that bubs was moving and if he could come and get me to take me to the hospital.

Within 20 minutes DH had come home and we headed straight to the hospital. As i had no more bleeding they took me into one of the birthing rooms and strapped me to a monitor and started monitoring the baby. This went on for about 30 minutes with them coming to check on me every 10. Bubs readings were fine and they rang Dr Davis (as he was delivering a baby) and checked with him to see if they should monitor me longer but he said that i was right to go, but to come back if there was any problems.

It was scary but i was really proud of myself that i kept it all together and didn't panic.

Hospital Visit plus other bits

Had my hospital visit today and got booked in for November (depending on when i go). Got asked a few questions but she was really nice and drilled it into my head that if i had any problems to call...i guess everyone does that when your pregnant, i have a special section in my phone just for hospital/emergency numbers. They also gave me a whole lot of information for myself and DH to read so it will keep us busy for a couple of days.

Also contacted the health insurance today to see how much it was going to cost for me to stay in Hospital and i was really surprised i actually thought that it was going to cost me more, so that has taken a lot off my mind.

I also made a decision (well i think i have) on a stroller. I am looking at getting a Steelcraft...either a strider 3 wheeler or a Strider plus 3 wheeler. I really want to go into a store and try it out before i make any other decisions on it.
