Text of the page (random words):
delivery note to self there ain t no epidurals on the gyno ward do not allow self to be admitted to there again so sylvie left around 6 which is when they begin rounds they put me on the monitor for half an hour and though there was the usual amount of activity the heart rates were much lower the baby usually starts at around 140 bpm and kicks it up to 160ish when she moves instead she was in the 115 range and never broke 140 for the duration despite the movement then the docs came for rounds the morning doc wasn t concerned about the heart rates as he said she was probably having the same stresses that i was and that it was still in the range of normal he was more concerned about how big she was and how fast she was growing he ordered another ultrasound to check for water and said that if the level was normal i could go home there was no reason to keep me throughout the weekend breakfast came at 8 a m most of it was identifiable some of it was even edible i swallowed a couple pieces of bread with jam and butter what must have amounted to 4 oz of coldish coffee with milk and some olives long story typical israeli breakfast is a salad of cucumber and tomato with tehina and olives and leben uh google it knowing that the hubby was on the way i skipped the veggies okay if the tomato had been less green than the cucumber i would have totally eaten it even more so if they had not been served whole with the dirt still on them and i m just not a fan of leben when i already have a sour stomach the hubby got there at 8 15ish and i practically did a happy dance he promptly fetched pastries from my favorite bakery upside the hospital has a mall attached to it and we ate he patiently sat in the chair next to me while i slept just having him there somehow made it all okay and i crashed until they came to take me for the ultrasound the ultrasound was crazy overnight the fluid levels went from 54 to 103 well within normal told i had plenty of water we finished the ultrasound around 9 30 a m we went back up to my curtained portion of room six and i slept some more at noon lunch was served if breakfast stank lunch made up for it yummy couscous and chicken and veggies with something resembling coleslaw and there was some watery sweet thing in a bowl dressing amniotic fluid not sure so i skipped it and soup salt flavor which may not sound great but it is way better than that other mass produced option non salt flavor i ate and finished the last of my fruit eight pieces in less than 24 hours take that five a day the kind hubby had brought additional clean clothes and i went to get changed and cleaned up a bit we packed up my bags and got ready for discharge the nice afternoon nurse came and told us i had to be readmitted through the er before they could discharge me since i was actually admitted to labor and delivery so the hubby ran around working out the paperwork the nice nurse came and removed my un iv and discharged me we left at around 1 p m almost 24 hours after we had checked in total monitoring time 1 hour which for the record could have been done at my local clinic a neighbor happened to be in jerusalem for a meeting so he picked us up on his way back home we got to the house and pretty much crashed due to nesting enough food was already made for shabbat so we slept until it was time to get up and shower before candlelighting we had a good dinner quiche and bread pudding and goofed around until i decided it was time to issue an eviction notice to my dear daughter we took a walk late at night from roughly midnight to 2 a m we ran into friends who happened to be on their way home from shul and presumably dinner or at least i hope so or they are just way too pious and davened very late and chatted with them before making our way up the big hill to our house at this point i am trying whatever i can to naturally induce labor assvice welcome i have been talked out of castor oil by the dr savta and well she knows about these things i mean she did create rachel also of the knowing variety so i trust her on that one i will hold to it as a last resort meaning i will do it tomorrow by noon she also owns a long crochet hook so you know we have options aside from walking read hobbling on my stilt like hips i also tried pumping some milk i know i m almost 30 but i still snigger at the thought of writing nipple stimulation i managed to get out about 2 ounces but i did not get out a baby not that i had really hoped she would come out of a breast but you know at this point i m not picky i am hoping to lure her out with the promise of a good dinner and there is the vigorous sex option though that s a comedic thought when you have a bowling ball accurate in both size and shape in your tummy vigorous is rolling from your right side to your left side in bed at night i m not even sure the sheer physics would allow for this form of labor induction right now assuming she has kept up her growth the baby should be roughly four kilo 8 8 pounds tomorrow meanwhile i ve lost 3 5 pounds so i don t think her weight is my fault from eating too much though i could be wrong i am toying with the idea of asking for another glucose test since her growth rate is actually going up she gained 6 kilo in 10 days 60 grams a day up from the usual of 40 grams a day if she stays in any longer we won t actually bring her home from the hospital she ll come out and move directly into the dorms to start medical school at hebrew university i guess that would be convenient if they wait to induce any longer she may actually have siblings before she arrives maybe that s it maybe there s another one in there that s due a few months later tomorrow morning it s back to the women s center for more monitoring and a consult with the doc i am going to beg for a prostoglandin insert to gently induce labor though rachel says they may only do that inpatient have i mentioned that i volunteer to be an inpatient on the ldr ward of their choice if they won t do that i m going to beg to have my membranes stripped honestly if i possessed sterile gloves and longer arms i would have stripped my own damn membranes this afternoon if they refuse to do that i m going to plead for at least an internal exam cause yeah haven t had one yet for the entire pregnancy for all we know there could be a padlock stuck in my cervix or maybe the amniotic sac is made of kevlar or something and try and flail about during the exam in hopes that something breaks with my luck it will be my hip or not i couldn t flail right now if i tried so look for an update tomorrow afternoonish our time and think contracty thoughts for me the hospital is largely thought of as being part of jerusalem except it s not really in jerusalem quite a ways outside it and it s on the top of this hill that makes it positively reminiscent of edoras the capital of rohan from the lord of the rings the two towers it has a crazy winding road that leads up to it and they take ambulances on it can you even imagine i can only assume that most of the patients show up with nausea among the presenting symptoms joke stolen from projgen s hubby 3 comments posted in third trimester are we there yet extra innings posted on august 30 2008 leave a comment still pregnant more on that in the next post coming as soon as i find the power brick to charge the laptop but time to pick new due dates on the price is right since we all picked dates too early my guess september 2nd in the p m leave a comment posted in uncategorized much ado about nothing posted on august 26 2008 7 comments and today just for fun we had a little scare starting yesterday afternoon i stopped feeling the baby move not entirely which would have sent me into hysterics and the hospital just a lot less than the vigorous kicking that results in my tummy looking almost square an elbow here and a knee there i did not panic i drank some really sweet mango passionfruit smoothie juice thing and waited there was a little more movement but again not up to the usual antics i thought i would sleep on it and see if she woke me up in the night like she usually does i went to bed around midnight at 7 a m i woke up desperately needing to use the bathroom but again without the movement i stayed up for a couple hours and had some homemade chai tea with milk and sugar hoping to spur her into action nadda i still didn t panic in fact i went back to sleep there goes my mother of the year award i got back up around 11 a m still feeling exhausted despite having got a good night s sleep we puttered around the house doing odds and ends and chores and such still not a lot of movement despite soda and caffeine and sugar she just wasn t her active self i panicked a little and as i always do when i panic i called rachel or more specifically i had my secretary previously known as the hubby call rachel rachel said there was likely nothing wrong for the record this is why you call rachel but that we should go to the women s center for a scan and monitoring and would we like a ride there cause you know in her free time when she s not raising six children and finishing seminar papers for college classes and being a work at home mom and blogging she does things like wait on panicky pregnant women hand and foot she even called the women s center for us on the way over all the more reason that you call rachel in these instances they had a doctor in and agreed i should come in and so we went i was put on the monitor happy strong heartbeat between 140 165 plenty of activity that i just couldn t feel given a scan uh not sure what we were looking for but she s still in there and a consult with a doctor lay down for 30 minutes three times a day and do kick counts in a nice quiet room without my husband or telephone yup he actually said that and all is well i go back thursday morning since i will officially be overdue cause it just wouldn t have been a fulfilling pregnancy without a little drama toward the end 7 comments posted in uncategorized prenatal graduate posted on august 18 2008 5 comments today i had my last real doctor s appointment i also had another growth scan this morning everything looks good the baby is estimated at 3 2 kilo or 7 pounds and i m told this is perfect for where i am in gestation i have the right amount of amniotic fluid and her movements are still frequent still no real contractions to speak of my iron is also going up and this is before the recent diligence with taking my pills which the doc said was impressive given that the baby is taking more iron from me now he said it was evidence that i was taking my pills as prescribed the hubby almost blew it here by laughing but managed to contain himself i covered nicely and asked for another prescription since i should allegedly be running out of pills in a couple days and my platelets are fine for an epidural oh happy day from here on out i go to the women s center for followup care twice a week if i fail to give birth within the next 10 days at that point they ll do a scan to monitor the baby s growth i ll be induced before she gets too big and put me on a monitor for a while not sure if this is to monitor any contractions or fetal stress maybe both what s weird is that i thought i would still have a few more appointments it would appear that this doctor actually expects me to give birth in the next week or so i guess that makes sense and yet it still seems really hard to grasp i m back to feeling just fat instead of pregnant and have still failed to understand that there s a little person inside me maybe you never really get there the un nesting is still in full effect i bought the coolest drill in the whole wide world last night and have since been perforating our walls between appointments and lunch with a friend today i also hung a shelf in the baby s room curtains in the baby s room curtain brackets in the bedroom wrong size rods damn and a couple organizing thingees in the kitchen next up is the bike racks in the storage room downstairs and we brought up and sorted our good china and found a lawyer to draft a will a power of attorney for medical stuff and to establish a guardian for the baby and we got quotes on life insurance actually maybe we ll just take the night off and have dinner and watch a movie which reminds me i need to make cornbread for dinner to go with the rice and bean casserole the more things change the more they stay the same let the waiting game begin 5 comments posted in third trimester are we there yet your opinion needed posted on august 18 2008 5 comments so from the looks of things we re going to have a baby in a few weeks as we live overseas though i prefer to think of it as our family living overseas but i guess it s a matter of perspective we d like to set up an account on one of the free photo sharing web sites out there here s where you come in please let me know in the comments if you use one of those sites what you like best and least about it and whether or not you would recommend it to someone else and if you re using an alternative instead let us know if that works well for you too 5 comments posted in casa kirby es su casa birds of a feather posted on august 16 2008 4 comments insanity has reared its ugly head within casa kirby the only question is whether it is nesting or just your garden variety anal retentivity mixed with too much free time and not enough exposure to the outside world i m going with option no 2 the hubby firmly believes it is option no 1 although he has been accusing me of nesting for roughly eight weeks evidence of said nesting a desire to have the dishes washed and frequent laundry doing some folks would live in abject squalor if we let them that said things are reaching a bit of a fever pitch around the house during the last week i have made and wrapped 38 bars of lavender oil soap i thought they would make nice thank you gifts for all the folks who have and likely will help us with regard to the baby gone a bit wild with the cooking the freezer is almost full and will be as soon as the hubby downs the remainder of the ice cream so that i can fill that space with rice and bean casserole cheese lasagna enchiladas tuscan potato soup and six more batches of homemade tomato sauce it joins 24 zucchini muffins one zucchini loaf two banana walnut loaves one batch each of butternut squash apple soup tomato fennel soup and an applesauce noodle kugel large enough to feed a family of 12 and there are hershey s chocolate cookie bars and a chocolate cake on deck in the fridge to keep up happy over the next few days or weeks the cookie bars were a double batch removed refitted and rehung four light fixtures i have one more to go but that one has to be rewired and might take a bit more effort with the help of the hubby holding me in place on a chair so that i could reach them he makes an excellent apprentice cleaned and organized most of the house i still have to do the closets and the storage room downstair...
