L&D Nurse. Opinions please!
I'm back in L&D. They sent me here from my doc appt due to elevated BP and a headache. When I got here, my nurse is one of the nurses I had when Enoch was born. She's just the sweetest! She remembered me and asked how I was doing.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no, his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me and did something else with an other girl.... and it's 10:51 am now and he hasn't texted me at all. and after he dropped me off I texted him saying what I felt and nothing. I don't know if I'm over reacting or what or what should i do. do i wait until he text me?
Husband on the way home. I have to go to l&d the pain is severe and my contractions are every 5-7mins. Nurses wanted me to come in. Will keep everyone updated. !
Soooo update I did go to L&D turns out I was 7 cm when the first checked me so I've been admitted and little one will definitely be here soon 😱
I guess sharing my personal info on here means having it used against me in a personal disagreement yes I was raped and no you have no right to use my daughter against me as a personal jab

I would!! It's sweet not awkward :) I had a nurse named Barbie when I had my second baby. She was the sweetest and helped me with everything and even got us some extra diapers and formula before we left. Reminded me of my grandma and I told her that before we left! She was an angel :)

I would tell her for sure! It's not awkward. I bet it'll make her very happy ❤️

This made me tear up. Tell her. I'm sure you letting her know how she touched you in a positive and loving way during one of the darkest and most difficult times of your life will mean a lot to her. ?

If you feel like you may cry I would suggest a heartfelt thank you card! She may cry also!
She sounds like such a sweet lady

Tell her. I think the suggestion of a note or card is a great idea if you don't think you can get the words out face to face.

If I were in your situation I would totally do it! That nurse might have not realized how much it truly meant to you. If you tell her, even in just a card or something that might help give her the confidence to keep treating everyone in a similar situation to you like that. Some times people think their efforts go unnoticed and don't think there's a point to continue. Even if she doesn't feel that way, it would still be a great thing to do. ☺️

I told her and I bawled like a baby the entire time! ?
She gave me the biggest hug and said she was so glad I told her. She said she thinks about us all of the time and asked about my husband and kids by name (so she obviously did remember us)!
She said she saw that I was in on Friday and wanted to stop in and say hi but she didn't know if I wanted to see her. She said she didn't think we'd ever be back, that we wouldn't want to have anymore after Enoch but she was so glad we were here, having another little boy and that she hopes she's here when I give birth to this one. ☺️
Thanks ladies! I'm so glad I told her.

See it's the little things that make someone so happy! I am so glad you told her! Those nurses go through a lot and I am sure they sometimes feel like they don't get enough appreciation!

Yeah, I'm definitely glad I said something. ☺️

Well, they let me go! I have two more appointments next week. I'm on pre-eclampsia watch and have been diagnosed with pregnancy-induced hypertension.
The nurse gave me a big hug when I left and said she hopes she doesn't see me back for at least 5 weeks! ☺️
