DELIVELY HOSPITAL: PRISON AND BERMUDE TRIANGLE!

DELIVELY HOSPITAL:

PRISON AND BERMUDE TRIANGLE!

I have heard and read that a lot of affords are needed to deliver a baby. So, I always wished the delivery started in the morning.

...But, suddenly I have felt the warm stream running down my leg. I was lying down the bed then. I stood up, and the floor round me became wet. It was ten o'clock of the evening time.

According to all the descriptions, the delivery had to start like this. The light contractions also have appeared. I was exited and worried in spite of that I did not know yet, if it was for real then. But, if the water appears, better not to wait and to go directly to the hospital. I always remembered that advise of the doctors. When the water ball, that surround the baby, is getting apart, the baby is not that protected already. And some kind of infection can get inside. More over, you never know how fast the delivery will develop. So, better do not wait too long, and have enough time to prepare yourself. And so the doctors had enough time to check you and prepare themselves, too.

The hospital was not far away. And I arrived there in ten minutes.

That night the place was not very busy. So, the doctors did not make me wait for long. At midnight time I was already examined. And the doctors said that the "water ballon" is partly torn only apart. So, the delivery might not happen that night. I was happy somehow. That's because emotionally I was not ready to deliver yet. I was scared, and wanted still to  be able to sleep a bit.

In the hospital there were no rooms where the partner can stay with the pregnant. It just was possible to stay in the chair near the bed. And just in case no one of the patients would arrive at night. My boy-friend was not happy to stay like this. He complained that he would not be able to sleep. And in the morning he would be destroyed, and it would be hard for him to help me while the delivery. I asked, if I could still go home at night. The doctors said yes, in case I sign the papers about my responsibilities if something would happen. And again the partner was scared to do like this, so I still remained in the hospital for mutual safe.

It was hard to fall asleep in the empty and new place being alone. Being embarrassed and sad like this, at night I closed the eyes for two hours approximately. And in the morning I felt destroyed...

Approximately at seven o'clock the hospital woke up. I have heard much noise outside of my door. And in half an hour after the doctors arrived to check me out. Everything there was without changes. I was not supposed to delivered immediately. But, at the same time they said that the situation can be changed any moment. So, I had to remain in the hospital.

I got even more upset then. The surrounding was depressive for me. There were many people and too much noise everywhere. The room was very small and hot. Because of security reasons the windows were done in the way that it was impossible to open them. And there was no air to breath! To all of this there was added that I had to stay at the same stored. And could not even get down to the yard to breath. It was again for the same security reasons. I did not spent much time in hospitals in my life. So, I did not have much  experience about it. But, it remained me rather the prison, then hospital. I remember I tried to exit at least to the balcony. And somebody from the stuff caught me there, and made me to come back to the room...

The food in the hospitals can be really terrible. At least, it seemed for me like this when my first breakfast has arrived. There were two biscuits, not tasty and, seems like, even not very fresh. I have found a piece of butter and a tea there, too. The same way was the lunch. Some sup, potatoes and fish. The same ugly taste. And very small portions. When dinner arrived I was not surprised already. Pasta with almost no sauce there was. Just the smell and the colour of the sauce I felt. I called this dish "Pasta with nothing". And for the  desert again some biscuit. Nothing more shirty like this I have ever tasted in my life. Hospital is not a restaurant, but still... So, be aware about that, and do the proper preparations and arrive with your own stuff. Better with something that cannot get spoilt. Because, for example, at the one hospital that I have been, there was not a fridge neither in  the room, nor outside at the corridor. At the corridor still there was the machine with drinks and some snacks. But again, before going there, make sure that you have some coins in the pocket. Yes, exactly coins. Because the one machine that there was, the paper money was not accepting. And as much as I tried to exchange among the patients or doctors there, no one did me such a favour. So, I was struggling a few hours there, waiting  for my partner to arrive with some cash and food.

Keep in the mind also that to the hospital you have to arrive being armed with some stuff to do. As the hospital can become a very boring place to stay in. I expected that or I would  be busy with delivery, or would go home. And it did not happen like this. The partner there was not all time with me, too. So, I was feeling much pity then that I did not grab some book with me. Or the knitting and thread to be able to finish the dress that I started a  few weeks before...

Not always you can relay on the WI-FI in the hospital,too. For example, in the room there was no one. The connection had to be in the corridor, but never arrived any. Even my phone connection was not working! Such the prison and the Bermuda Triangle! And it was one of the most respected hospitals of European Union! And it was founded in the country where they consider the medicine is the best one in the world.

...The situation about my delivery status still was not changing. The doctors said that it was possible to wait up to 48 hours like this. Till then it would not hurt a baby. And only then they would take some action and force the delivery. So, I had to spent one more night like this. And to live the same exhausting life for one more day, too...
