    That's ridiculous, what reason have they given that you can't have your support person there??

    oh hun, big hugs to you they might not be letting you eat in prep for a csec? when i had A the girl next to me had a failed induction, and was forbidden to eat for 24 hrs while they waited for her csec, something to do with anasetic i think?
    as for your Dh, thats bull, it might be outside visitorsd hours, but he should still be able to stay, considering whats happening and how far hes traveled to be by your side.

    When you get to the ward, kick up a stink. You need to eat, 24 hours is a damn long time, and judging from things you would have time for a spinal aneasthetic for your c/section. I also really agree with a pp's suggestion for some sleeping tablets. maybe some shortacting ones like temazapam and some pain relief.

    Just wanted to wish you all the best MrsS - sounds like you're having a tough time of it.
    I agree with the other gals - call your Doula so she can be your advocate in hospital. All the best, xx

    :hugs:
    I agree that they don't want you to eat in case of a c-section.
    I was very much in your position with DS4 (but at 25 weeks) and laboured all day, bleeding not food I was exhausted...they only delivered bub because he went into distress and his HR drop. If the bubs are ok they are more reluctant to deliver.
    Is your cervix still long?
    Maybe ask for some morphine it will help take the edge of, for you to relax and may help to reduce the ctx.
    I can't understand why the won't let you have your DH there...that is really not fair

    Found out DH it's because it's outside visiting hours but the nurse worded it like he was allowed up full stop so tomorrow when hours start he'll be here.
    Being my first night they don't want to give sleeping tablets. Some higher up registrar is coming around soon

    Start asking questions when that Reg comes around!!! Things like this may be your first night at Monash but not your first in hossie, and you would like some sleep or you will not be able to cope!!!!! Annnnnd you want an action plan, even if that means a plan A,B and C. You need/want to be informed.

    Sending you strength, hun. I know how upsetting and scary it can be to have medical staff ignoring your requests and keeping you in the dark. It may not feel like it now but you CAN do this. We're all behind you, and you're not alone. Here's to the safe delivery of your precious boys. xoxo

    I am really surprised and upset they wont let your DH to be there with you if you are in labour? I am worried they have not let you eat and have not told you if you will be having a c section or not. Ask lots of questions hun and get answers this is your body and your babies you must fight as hard as it seems xxxx

    Are they at least doing a CTG on your bubbas to know that they're OK with you contracting so much?

    Get PZ in. PZ - go help. If you can. MrsS, it sounds like you really need someone in your corner. Or can you ring the hospital, PZ, and ask what's going on??

    Let us know when the reg comes around.

    Gosh, good luck hun, it sounds like it's been a really horrible couple of days
    I hope you get some answers soon & your boys are born safe
    & well.
    Your hubby probably can't stay overnight if you are in a shared room but it doesnt sound like he should be far away. Is there somewhere he can stay nearby? Or does he have the girls?
    Thinking of you all
