I went to work today, as usual. Some of my colleagues wished us the best for tonight. I try not to keep my focus on it, keep myself distracted. The day felt so fast. When I realize, that it’s already past 6. Time to pack up and ready myself.
We've prepared the baby’s stuff quite early, probably 2-3 months ago. I enjoyed assembling them, as much as I enjoy listening to my over reacting wife mumbling and worrying everything. We've packed the necessity stuff months ago, when my wife having a scary moment that we decide it could be anytime. So be prepared is better than not preparing anything, at all. So we just gather some stuff that we think we need (obviously that’s include my MacBook, iPad etc).
When we went out of our room, all of my in-laws are waiting for us. They joke around with me, giving my wife a few thoughtful words and advices. Its a nice moment to have, it probably gave my wife the extra motivation that she needed. We wave good bye for the night.
We reached the hospital and go straight to the emergency and given them the green form (the form that the doc has given when they think you are ready or anytime soon), that have the instruction given by the doc. We waited for a moment, and was called again only to be disappointed that the single rooms are all full – including the premier suite. Like it or not, we have to settle with two bed room. Lucky enough, since we came at this hour, highly unlikely there will be someone going to check in (fingers cross), as this type of bed (two, three, four) room are not meant for guys to be wander around. Only if you're the only patient in the room, then you can get the privileged to have your husband (or some male relatives) accompany you through the night.
We still request for a single bedroom, where we got a higher chance to get the next day when other patient discharge from the hospital. For now, a thick, hard bed and pillow are all that my wife get and for me, a nice, quite comfy chair with arm-rest. Not for sleeping, but I can try.
They did a CTG and it didn't shown much of activity. So after a physical test, they push in some medicine to make you feel like you gonna shit and pee, so that you clear your bladder before they proceed with the inducing.
At the moment, they just put the pill and my wife already getting some contraction. Good sign, but we won't know until the next CTG. Until then, I'm off to massage the wife – she've just requested for it.
