I went to the hospital this morning for sick call to attempt getting that freaking bed rest note and still haven't gotten. We've mostly just been playing phone tag. My normal doctor has the day off so I had to go see Robbins..and well, as much as I like her..she doesn't know what's going on. I told her Derosa said she'd write up a note. I said Orion called and another doctor said she'd write up a note and then call us back when she was done. She never called back. I told her about all of my pains. I almost cried.
She had a nurse in training or whatever with her. She wasn't going to be cool..I just knew it. She ran all kinds of tests on me..and nurse in training got to stare into my va-hay-hay and look at my cervix and blah blah blah (which is seriously the most action I've gotten in about a week and a half). Nurse in training thanked me for letting her look at my va-hay-hay. Seriously.
I just asked for a note to have Orion home more during the day to help me out with Calix and let me rest as much as I can. She sent me down to the brace shop to pick up a maternity belt thing. I tried to tell her that it's not going to help..but she wouldn't listen.
She told me she would call later with the test results to let me know if I'm at risk of having this kid early (didn't we already establish that I am?) and then *maybe* she would put me on official bed rest.
SO..okay..fine. I won't be on self bed rest anymore. I'll get up and do everything I normally do. I'll suffer through the pain. Fine. But when I show up in labor..don't even try to say I didn't tell you so.

This all sounds like the beginnings of a law suit to me. God forbid that you do have this baby early. And if you do, who's to say that your labor may have been able to be delayed by even a week or so if O had been home to help you??? I'd throw a fit if it was me. But you're supposed to be taking it easy, so you just let me know who to call and the number. I'll raise hell.
Oh... and I was thinking about you the other day. Remember when we were on the phone one time... and you called my grandma "Granny G-Funk" or something like that? Maybe it wasn't that exactly, but I remember you giving her a nickname of some sort, and it popped into my head on Sunday, totally out of the blue. Just thought I would share!! I got a good chuckle out of it :)
