First Labor and Delivery Visit

Unfortunately I had to go to labor and delivery this afternoon. A lady ran the red light and hit me on the back driver's side of the car. She hit me hard enough to spin me around in the intersection. I was scared to death. I felt ok but called my Dr. to make sure everything was ok. They told me to come in for monitoring.

We spent about 4 hours in labor and delivery. They monitored Bambino's heartrate, which they couldn't find at first. That feaked both Chris and I out. Once the nurse found the heartbeat it sounded good and strong but he kept moving around. The nurse had to move the monitors several times to keep up with him. No contractions were detected which was great news! I will be spending the next few days just relaxing and letting Chris wait on me hand and foot:) I really hope I don't have to go back to L&D before this little guy has finished baking.

  2. I'm glad that you and baby are fine! I was dreaming about car wreaks all night last night after reading your post on the ATL baby board.
