I had an OB appointment this morning. Nothing exciting just the regular weight, urine, heartbeat, etc. However, in having just a general discussion with my doctor about how the delivery may go depending on whether its vaginal or cesarean I learned something rather distressing. Since even in a vaginal delivery of the babies I'll be laboring in the OR, only one person can be in there with me. What!?
I assumed that they would only allow one person in the room if it ends up being a cesarean but really? Only one person for a vaginal delivery too? That seems stupid to me. If shit goes down, just kick everyone out. It's really more the principle of it all that bothers me. I don't mind if my husband is in the room or not. Ideally, I'd like for it to be him and Grant and Russ in there. But at the very least, both Grant and Russ should be there...they're the parents! I just feel bad that they have to decide to either both wait in the waiting room together while Sorrell goes in with me or have just one of them come in with me. It sucks.
Oh well. I suppose that as long as the babies are both healthy and I am healthy and don't have to go through anything crazy then it's the least of my worries. I just hate not having control over it just because someone else says so.
On a lighter note, everything else is looking good and Grant and Russ will both be here next Monday for the ultrasound to find out the sexes!!
