Waters have broken.. now what.... advice needed rant included for free

even with your waters gone, orgasm is agreat way to start that uterus contracting! good luck!
 
Sorry ladies... been a bit out of it today... so woke at 3.30am not feeling right... went and had a cup of tea and sat in the living room watching tv for a bit.... after about an hour I had not felt bubs move so got a bit panicked but went and got me some cold squash... at around 5 am I'd still not felt bubs move so called the hospital, they asked me to go in...

Got in to hospital and got hooked up, baby was fine just sleepy (not even a bottle of lucozade would wake it). Got a massive lecture from the midwife (evil bint) that even babies sleep at night and it was a waste of my/their time going in... so..

A) why in my notes does it explicitly say if I feel reduced movements or am worried I should call immediately
B) ask me to go in...

I cried a lot this morning.. it's bad enough thinking there is something wrong with your baby... let alone someone telling you off for just wanting it checked... I've not been to hospital (apart from routine scans) at all, this was my first time.. they were not busy but obviously I was an inconvenience to her...

the machine showed I was having contractions just not very strong and about 10 mins apart...

Got home about 8ish and ate some breakfast and then went to bed for a couple of hours...

Have had a warmish soak and watched some TV.. had some nice contractions coming every 6 mins or so but they've disappeared... seems like my body knows what is has to do just can't keep up...

Looks like we shall be back on Labour Ward at 8am tomorrow for induction.. which I didn't want no birth pool or anything.. :(
 
Oh dear, I really hope your contractions start and stay regular so you can go in the pool. I was induced with DS and it wasnt too bad I dont have a horror story.

Good Luck for tomorrow if nothing happens tonight xx
 
Grrrr what a bitch! Don't let her upset u hun, no way should she have made u feel like that... that hospital and her being there are for the sole purpose to take care of u & your LO!!! Still got my fingers crossed that baby doesn't keep u waiting too long! x
 
Dont give up yet honey, baby will come eventually, the more you stress the tighter your muscles, the less likely baby is to come. You need to maybe do some hardcore relaxation and imagine baby on their way down to meet you...

I would say try and give yourself or get yourself an orgasm, thats a sure way to wake up the cervix!!!! :rofl:

Good luck xxx
 
What a cow, I think you just got someone crappy, I would have gone in too.

I would try and have an orgasam, if nothing else it might cheer you up :)
 
Thank you all, I appreciate it.. :)

My OH was ready to beat her face into the wall this morning.... luckily he refrained :D

I just hope it's no her on duty tomorrow :s

WHAT!?! omg how rude! i went when to be monitored a few nights ago for the same thing bubz haven't moved so i called and went in and she was fine and they were so nice to me! the doctor said listen to ur gut and not to go to sleep with any anxiety(we came in @ night) come in and get checked out bc you never know! im so sorry they did that to you! how rude your waters are gone on top of that anything could have been wrong!
 
What a cow. I would have complained although no doubt you just wanted the hell away from her!!!You poor soul - this hasnt been smooth for you but it will be worth it when youve got your wee one....a;though your prob sick hearing that!!!!Il keep my fingers crossed the contractions kick in soon and your wee ones here tonight!!Im off for a curry in an attempt to start something!Good luck!xx
