Just left the hospital. I'm tired and hungry as I've been awake since 6:30 and had hardly any sleep last night. Good news though! Bleeding has stopped and baby is happy! He's baking for awhile longer and I couldn't be more relieved. I've to keep an eye on myself & I've been put on a sex ban.. Which isn't a big deal for me but SO gave me a pouted lip this morning when I told him but it is what it is. I'm currently having some lunch and then going shopping. I'm so happy to be out as I saw some scary stuff whilst I was in there thank you so much for your thoughts and prayers ladies, I appreciate it.
As far as your SO not being able to stay bc it is outside of "visiting hours" is pure BS, especially if you are in L & D. They wouldn't send him out if you were actually in labor...
They were also rude when he called later in the evening to ask how I was. The woman on the phone said 'can't you just text her' my SO told her how I didn't have my charger with me so she then went off the phone to speak to another nurse and SO heard her say 'do we even have a [my name] in here.. urgh here she is'. I was pretty pissed when he told me that story. & everyone else's SO's got to stay it was only because mine had to leave for work.. They weren't willing to let him back in outside of hours.

Sorry you had such a crappy night!! Glad that everything is okay though. You will probably get a survey about your stay I would 100% let them know!! I had surgery once and my day nurse was HORRIBLE. Halfway through her shift I couldnt take it anymore (She took my cathader out before they were sure I could get up and walk and then refused to give me pain meds). I got the charge nurse immediately and would not let this women back in the room. When I got my survey i let them know just how horrible she was. If you dont get a survey make sure to call the hospital. that is 100% not okay. Shouldnt matter if he has to work till 2am, he is your husband and not a "visitor" they should of let him spend the night!

Hope things get better and you were able to go home today!
Was it L&D you were in or triage? I know when I had a bleeding scare I was in triage, which was a shared room and SO had to adhere to visiting hours. L&D is typically anroom on your own and SO doesnt have to adhere to visiting hours. Only asking because of what pp's have said about the hospital making your SO leave?

I started off in L&D and then went to a shared ward, which is what I think you are referring too. When SO came back with my things it was lights out in the room but the girl opposite me had her partner and the girl beside me also. They were in for more serious reasons though, ones water had gone at 23wks & the other was being induced at 39wks due to complications. I was just in for observation to make sure the bleeding calmed and I had no contractions so maybe that's why. I'll never know but I survived it . They told me to keep an eye out for more bleeding as I'm 37wks and close to the end. Baby can come at any time apparently. I'm just gonna rest lots. I would have liked SO there but I have him now.. He's currently passed out on the sofa asleep even though he had our nice bed last night.. Me on the other hand, I am tired but I don't think I could sleep just now. I'm still a little sore and achy.
Ahhh ok. I've never seen a shared ward before so maybe that's why I was confused. I've seen shared rooms with just two people in one room, but you are separated by a curtain and SO's can stay. Interesting!
