So I can't sleep for more than an hour or two at a time here in the hospital. First I spent a lovely couple of hours in Labor and Delivery where the beds are a living nightmare. I told my mother that I'm glad I'll be in too much pain to worry about the bed next time I'll be in there. It was not fun at all. They moved me to a regular room after monitoring Joey on the heart monitor for quite awhile. The level of discomfort was unbearable. Since I've been moved to a regular room I've been much better. The food hasn't been bad, the room is nice and comfortable for everyone and only the Internet has given me a headache. So the issues have been that I have a bladder infection. I was very dehydrated. And my blood pressure was high. Since I've been admitted my bladder infection was confirmed and treated with antibiotics. I've been on fluids and that's been fun...I never had an IV before...I hate it!! And my blood pressure (in spite of being stressed and crazy anxious) has been low to normal. So things are looking up. I am having trouble moving. My legs are still severely swollen and my Joey is hanging so low that it's painful to stand too quickly. My doctor talked about bed rest but honestly I'm thinking being in bed has only made it harder to get up and down to go pee and do anything for myself. Am I the only one who has to depend on others who can't stand it? I feel helpless! I really hate relying on other people to help me out of bed or to fix my food. I'm very independent and this pregnancy has proven that I'm pretty much screwed if I don't have family to lean on. Not to mention a very supportive (sleepy) husband. Lol can't wait for breakfast...I'm hungry at 5 am! 😋
