Imagine you are a new mom. Imagine you have all the new mom worries like learning to breastfeed (if you are doing that), how to get your kid on a real day/night cycle, learning to bathe and care for this marvelous little wonder. Imagine you're getting the lack of sleep most new parents experience.
Add to that a blood pressure that has risen and you don't know why. Better yet, they don't know why. Imagine that the treatment is trial and error. How would you be doing?
no I can't as I don't have the info. I got in touch through the nurses desk which I got from another department, which I got from my OB/GYN who works at Mt. Auburn. You may be better off waiting until tomorrow and see if they come home. They are really trying to just sleep as much as they can now and recharge their strength.
Is chip at the hospital wtih the baby, staying over nite there, or taking the kid home overnite, etc?
I brought them over a tray of mac and cheese with salad on Sunday about 2 hours before she went to the hospital. So they have food there for when they return home.
They are all at the hospital. Given that they are trying to breastfeed the baby, and that Anne needs a lot of care (and cannot even lift the baby), that's pretty much the only way to go.
