Reason 999

 999th reason why I hate Philadelphia. Stupid fricken hospital's where the ob/gyn doctor's are all quitting and going to other hospital's in other states due to malpractice insurance being so high here in the state of Pennsylvania, and local hospital's having to close down their labor and delivery wards. So, I am up this morning at 4:30am, all excited about my new grand daughter coming into the world today. I get to Emma's at 7:50. At 8:05 hospital call's. We don't want you to come today. Be here at 6am tomorrow morning. HUH???????WTH???????? WHY?????? Labor and delivery is very busy. If you come in now you probably won't have baby until 8pm or later tonight. Dan get's on phone. No fricken way, all plans are made, we are coming in. We drive all the way to the hospital. Get up to labor and delivery and are then told, there was 2 emergencies, and 3 trauma's in emergency room and only 1 anesthesiologists on duty. Half the nurses in labor and delivery called out sick, there's no bed for Emma, due to all the birth's today. Everyone in the city having a baby today or what???????? JEEZ. So home we came. No baby, no pictures and my blood pressure is probably through the roof because now I have a dag on migrain with laser light show in eyes. I am starting to think that maybe there's a reason I am not suppose to see the baby the first day or something. Poor Emma, if she has to wait any longer than tomorrow, that girl is going to go off on someone.

Now tomorrow I can't go to the hospital with Dan and Emma. I have to be at the school in the morning to meet Rebecca's teacher. I gave Dan my digital camera so he can take pics for me. And it probably won't be until tomorrow night when I get my camera back. I'm so disappointed, stressed, mad. I hate that hospital. They are the most unorganized hospital in the city and is in the worse part of the city and it's the ugliest hospital I have ever seen. So, it looks like another long wait again, grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Angie called me and asked if I was a grandma again yet. Told her nope. I told her I was gonna choke that chinese doctor or bring my gun, lol. I know it's not his fault, or anything, but still he can't figure out something. Like if there is a c-section scheduled later today and it's an elective day like Emma's is, why bump Emma's, she was first, bump someone else's. But nooooooooo, they bump Emma's. I am so glad this is her last baby. Because if I had to go through this again I would be commited to a rubber room wearing a straight jacket. Please pray I don't go insane before tomorrow.

Love to all..........Cindy aka nutcase to be, lol

  3. Can you believe THIS HAPPENED TO ME????  When Kelly was born, 16 years ago...at West Jersey-Voorhees.  My mom and my sister came in from NY to stay with Kaitlin while hubby and I were SUPPOSED to go in to be induced.  They were worried because I was late and the baby was big so they were anxious to induce.  I was really nervous because they were so anxious to get her out.  They tell us to call on the 19th at 6 am.  Too busy, they say, call at noon.  Still too busy, call at 3.  Finally, they tell me, nope, not today.  HUH??????????  My mom is here, my sister is here, you were so anxious to get this kid out and now you say NO????  I told them...I WILL BE FAST!!!  Just give me a room, I go quick!!!  Nope, they say, come tomorrow.  I go the next day at 8 am...AND DID NOT GET A ROOM TILL 3:00!!!!!  And guess what?  She was born in 3 hours!!!!!!! (and she WAS big....9 lbs 6 oz!) I said "I TOLD you I would be fast!!!!"

    It's so frustrating, I know...but it will all be worth it in the end when you have that baby in your arms!!

    ((hugs)) to EVERYONE!

  7. (((CINDY AND EMMA)))

    OMG!!! I can't believe they did this to her. How fraustrating for everyone having plans already made and having to change them at the last minute. My blood pressure would be boiling too. Just take it easy we don't want anything to happen to you before Adrianna gets here. I'm so sorry you won't get to be there when she's born, but it'll be over with soon and you can see her everyday. I hope Rebecca has a good day at school. Meant to tell you before I loved her costume. Try to take a nap since you were up so early. I know you have to be exhausted. I'll be thinking about you all tomorrow.

    Hugs and I'm sorry, Chrissie

  19. I know you were so disappointed you could cry.  I've been looking forward to seeing the pictures too.  Maybe Emma will go into labor on her own and they'll have to accept her then.  Soon, the baby girl will be here, you can touch her, hold her and smell some baby head.  I know it's not the same AT ALL but I posted more pictures of my little Taylor.  Maybe it'll help in some way to hold on because this is what you'll soon be getting.
    Love you and hang in there,
