Can I go home now?… (Continued from issue 13)

I can walk with a walker. My heartbeat is back to normal. Baby is ok.

“Can I go home now?” was the only thing on my mind.

I had been laying in a hospital bed for over a week on an IV medication to hopefully regain my ability to walk. I had been on this medication before to regain my abilities that I lost due to Multiple Sclerosis, MS, but this time there is a baby to keep an eye on because now I am pregnant.

It’s not all about me anymore. Now there is a tiny life growing inside of me that I have been given the privilege to care for. That privilege started when that egg met that sperm and created life. I needed to make every decision from that point forward based on how this will affect my baby and my life with that baby.

I no longer had the occasional alcoholic drink, my choice. I chose to not have my daily cup of coffee, my choice. I chose to think of the baby first before my own pleasures because I was given the opportunity to be a MOM. And I planned to be the best mom I could be, starting with while that baby was inside of me.

When I saw those 2 lines on that pregnancy test, I knew I had to figure out how to be a mom. I have a great MOM – I have a SuperMOM although she won’t admit to it. I want to be at least as good as she was when I was growing up. I am my mom’s first born. She was 19 going through this pregnancy thing. She always wanted to be a mom unlike me. So of course I asked her all the questions I had on my mind about being pregnant, but she didn’t have the answers to what I was going through.

Let’s review the milestones, what number am I up to now?

Oh yeah keep stress levels low because I am pregnant but…

First, I had the morning sickness which was stressful.

Second, there was all the talk of the world coming to an end due to Y2K.

Third, I was bleeding vaginally.

Fourth, MS made me a paraplegic.

Fifth, my heart rate went above 200 beats per minute.

Sixth, my husband had to be called back to the hospital because the doctors wanted to STOP MY HEART!!!!!

Seventh, my baby could die so we could save my life!

Eighth, why am I still in the hospital?

Can I go home now? NO was the sense I was given…

I can walk with a walker. My heartbeat is back to normal. Baby is ok.

How about now? Still NO.

We need to keep you under observation to be sure it doesn’t happen again and to make sure your baby is doing alright. So we are putting you in the MICU.

There I was now my second week still in the hospital under constant observation. I was put in what is called the Maternity Intensive Care Unit. Here I had my own nurse who sat at the end of a curtain 24/7. He had to watch over me and 1 other patient who was on the other side of that curtain. When the other patient was asleep, I could have a quiet conversation with him, but no others could visit me there. I was very lonely.

I asked again, “Can I go home now? My heart rate has not changed. I can walk with a walker. The baby “rolled over” during the night. Can I go home now?”

The answer was still NO because they said, “We need to figure out WHY your heartbeat went that high, 200 beats per minute, in the first place so that we can find out if it will happen again.”

We would like to do a test to follow your blood flow through your heart to determine why your pulse was so high. BUT this requires your husband’s approval again because you are pregnant. This test uses a radioactive isotope that could cause complications to the baby.

Complications!!!! What kind of complications?

Back to that in the next newsletter…
