I Understand
I now understand why at the end of pregnancy women are ready to see their baby ( for reasons other than the obvious).
Weekly Dr visits, cervix checks, a heavy belly, and acid reflux. I will say again pregnancy has been very good to me up to this last month, I am very ready to meet my girl.
I have a DR. apt tomorrow will update later in the afternoon.
Let's do a rant shall we? This is more like a "What the Hell"
Last week I went to a newborn class, yes it was very much 'this is a baby, this is a diaper' but I did get a few great pieces of information to make it worthwhile. They are doing major construction on the maternity ward, there is NEVER a good time for this...never. I have to be rerouted to get to the maternity ward, no problem I am used to this. There is a 20 foot hallway detour, I know the route well. This time there are 2 orange cones blocking the hallway, I walk right by these, thus turning myself into the jackass who doesn't read signs possibly ending up on someone else's blog as a rant :). There is a construction worker about 10 feet in who stops me, I am informed I cannot use this hallway because they are in the process of lifting a 6,000 pound beam, I will need to take another route.....uuummm what other route? I have to return down the hallway the way I barged in and go to the reception desk to be told I have to drive around to the way backside of this building to get in over there. I finally find the entrance, a nurse has to let me in, I request she show me where the bathroom is, since the only one I know of is the one at the end of the unusable hallway. The nurse takes me to the bathroom I told her was unusable, there again is my favorite construction worker to explain the situation to the nurse, he then says that it is perfectly OK to use this bathroom, he will even stand outside to ensure my safety (not making that up). I ask if the beam has been secured, the answer is no but the bathroom is safe.
What the Hell??
Thank you for offering to stand outside the door for safety sake sir (eye roll) but this bathroom is IN the same hallway, 5 damn feet from where you just ushered me away for my own safety. How do you think moving me 5 feet is safer in the case of a 6000 pound beam? I can assure you that if I am on that toilet, and that beam falls, I will notice and there is no amount of you guarding the door to help that. These are the thoughts in my head.
So, I held it and went pee when I got home, no one guarded the door, and nothing fell in from the ceiling.
