The trip home the first time, walking in the doors, my poor husband has to carry the baby in and then also go back and get me because I can hardly move. We were starving. I don't think we had had dinner at the hospital. It was just so much of the discharge stuff that was happening that takes forever. So many things happening that you forget to eat and take care of yourself.

And so he started making dinner and I called my mom. She wanted to know when we made it home. I hadn't talked to her except for maybe when we first moved to the anteparty unit. She asked how it went.

It was like this flood of emotions just overcame me and I could hardly speak through my tears just letting her know what I had found out and the horror of everything that had happened and what the OB had said. She was in utter horror and shock as well. She as a nurse couldn't believe it. My mom, she had gotten like a cold or something at the time.

So she had originally planned on not coming out for like a week. She wanted to give us more time as a new family, but she was going to fly down after that week and be with us and help me. But when this happened, it kind of was like, oh, I need to get down there sooner, but I'm sick and I don't want to get your baby sick.

And so it was just me and my husband for a few days until my mom finally recovered and was able to come down. But She probably was appalled for several days and I'm sure very concerned about how we were doing in that time. I think she felt helpless. You're watching your child be in pain and you can do nothing about it. That's a helpless feeling.

I went in for my two-week visit with her, already a little bit on edge. My OB comes in, her happy self, and takes a look down there. You can't make this stuff up. And she's like, well, there's been a separation of church and state down here. That's what she said to me.

And those words stick out in my mind because it was just so nonchalant and to me insensitive because I'm in pain, I'm scared, I'm hurting. It seems like all these care providers are somehow skipping over important things. That's what you're going to say to me after all this.
