Oh, and I first knew I loved him when he could put his hands on my belly and feel the orientation of the baby. He didn’t rely so much on the machines that he couldn’t trust his hands. It was nice.

Lissa,
I didn’t see this post when your originally posted it. I was on a blogging break back in August. Your experience was horrifying and I’m so glad y’all are OK. My favorite OB in the whole wide world and the only one with whom I’ve had a true “Bradley Birth” moved home to San Diego after he delivered my second child. I would be happy to give you his name if you are ever interested in finding a new OB. He was so respectful, listened to me, trusted my instincts, and told the hospital staff to chill out and turn all those lights down when he came in for the delivery. Love him!

I’m so glad you and the baby are okay and so sorry you had to go through such an ordeal! I just want to shake that doctor and that hospital staff for you. I am actually worried about their apparent incompetence. Are you really fond of your doctor? I would be concerned by his refusal to believe you, but even more concerned about his inability to admit he was wrong in the face of all the evidence.

I never did understand why they won’t give you a blanket when you have a fever. They say shivering makes your temperature go up higher. Why would you want that to happen?
