Ante Partum


The bleeding continued. It was intermittent and unpredictable, sometimes worse than other times. We spent most of our time in the Ante Partum unit, a place set up for long term care of expecting mothers. We spent a lot of time working on keeping Trish comfortable… trashy magazines and daytime TV and lots of visits from friends and relatives. If bleeds were bad enough, we would be moved to labor and delivery where we could be monitored more closely and be stuck with more needles. It was particularly tough on me since I had to sleep on an uncomfortable rollaway cot, rather than a pull-out chair/bed thingy.
