hospital rant....

So I was scheduled for my non stress test yesterday at 10am they called me at 8am and cancelled because no rooms. They called me back at 7pm and tell me to go in and ended up keeping me over night because baby's heart rate was kinda high. They started iv, the nurse destroyed my hands she couldn't insert a iv they're both swollen and sore. I really thought they would just keep me and induce me today since im scheduled for Tuesday anyway and after s long night and sore and swollen hands they send me home. Like seriously was it really necessary to send me home for 1 day. I was so mad and sad, really thought I was gonna meet my baby today. .... but I guess everything happens for a reason. .. can't wait for Tuesday!

Thanks, me too. Well, I guess that gives me today to clean the house, go shopping and just spend some time with my kids and relax before disappearing a couple of days, but I'm super excited to meet my little man tomorrow.
