Confession

jessrizo

Soooo I just went to the ER just because I was curious to see if I could see my baby heart beat or hear it. ( even though my appointment is the 23rd) told doctor I was having cramps witch I didn't lie I really was they just weren't painful like I said. Well anyways I seen my baby heart and hear the beat 165 was my little nugget heart beat.

I know I shouldn't have lied but I was just so curious. Oh btw I'm 7weeks and a day

So, you took away doctors, nurses and resources... lied about a serious medical problem... just so you didn't have to wait a few more days to hear a heart beat?

That's utterly disgusting.

So not cool.

Dude.... You probably could have just gone somewhere to pay for an elective ultrasound.

WinchestertoPittsburgh

I'm adding one more thing, because I refuse to let this go. I'm currently on bed rest due to having bleeding that started yesterday and has not stopped. No explanation at this point. 

I had to wait THREE HOURS last night in the ER to get an ultrasound because they were backed up. Do you realize that you could have been taking time away from someone who REALLY NEEDED that ultrasound?? 

I truly hope you make better decisions in the future.

That was not a cool thing to do. The ER is used for EMERGENCY'S only. You took time away from those that truly needed the help of the doctors and nurses. Not cool OP!

First and for most the ER was not busy at all!!!! How do I know because I work at the same exact hospital 3rd shift as a MA. If I knew it was horribly busy I would have not gone. How I said it was not busy at all. Take a chill pill, and how I said earlier I was having cramps just not as bad as I told them.

ButterMyBiscuit

Wait, did you think we would be understanding and think this was cool? I'm just trying to figure out what made you think this was a topic worthy of its own thread.

No. I will not take a chill pill. The ER I went to was not busy either. But guess what? Out of the few people there? My nurse said that FOUR of us were there for pregnancy related problems. That's why it took so long for me to be seen. 

There is NEVER a reason to use emergency services for your own personal gain.

Wtaf??? Seriously???

As someone who has actually had to wait in a room for an ultrasound because baby was in trouble and actually experiencing a devastating ultrasound, I find this dispicable.

Absolutely atrocious.

indulgentgypsy

July 4th I had to wait 4 hours in the ER to be told I had already lost my baby because of people like you that did not have a real emergency backing up the Ultrasound techs. Thanks a lot.

If you didn't think this was a poor decision, why is the title of this thread, "confession"? Come on now.

This is awful! Light cramping is a normal part of pregnancy and you even said it was just because you wanted to see the heart beat. So did I and I was a nervous anxious mess but I waited... Good luck with that huge needless hospital bill and I hope lying is not something you do on a regular basis.

jessrizo

Because it was a white lie. So if I was concer and courious that's why I went.

No. You went because you didn't want to wait a few days to hear the heart beat. It's not a white lie. You did a terrible thing.

Very much hoping this is a troll just wanting to start a fight. If that's the case, Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

"Concer and courious" does not = emergency

You even stated you lied ! And that you lied about the severity of your cramps how can you say now that you didn't lie? Smh

So, then call your doctor and make an appointment. ER means Emergency Room. You did not have an emergency.

megstervt

So at first I was like:

But reading your follow-ups I was like:

Probably all of us can understand the feeling of needing to know RIGHT now and the anxiety and anticipation that comes with having to wait.  I have to wait until 12/21 for my first ultrasound.  But it's NOT COOL to lie and take away potentially life saving resources from someone else OP.  The fact that you don't seem to think this is a problem is even worse.

You're just pulling for straws right now so that you sound better and it's ridiculous. What made you high risk? Some mild cramping? I don't think so.

blackgirlmagic

I don't care if you OWNED the hospital that was a horrible thing to do! Admit it and move on! Pregnancy is all about being patient. You just had to wait six days to see your little bean, SIX! You could have waited and not waste good resources on a non emergency. There is no way of getting yourself out of this corner!

It doesn't matter if it was or was not busy. No one has a way of knowing whether an ER would be busy because it's an EMERGENCY ROOM where EMERGENCIES happen. How the hell would anyone know when something would happen?!  Also since you work there, you know that cramping is a typical symptom in the first trimester. 

Using the ER for your own personal entitlement? Because you work there? Because you just have to see your LOs heartbeat?

I'm not saying it wasn't a problem. I'm saying is I was having cramps after having 2 miscarriages yes I was worried maybe not cramping to the point where I needed to go in to the ER. I never made it past 7 weeks so cramping was all new to me even though it wasn't bad cramping. I did txt my boyfriend to go with me to the ER to make sure everything was okay been had two other miscarriages where I never go to see a heart beat or hear one sorry if I was anxious to see if everything was okay in my womb, but for everyone coming on her bashing me people I went in im just going to pray for you.

First of all, spelling and grammar are your friends. Second, you posted this to the interwebz and people are allowed to react any way they like. Thirdly, keep your prayers for yourself because I feel like you may need them more than we do.

You didn't say any of this in the beginning. You came at this topic as if you were giggling about something you wanted to 'confess' to and hear that we would all say "OH! SO glad you got to hear it! WOO HOO!"

No. That's not going to happen. I've also had two MC's. Never got to see a heartbeat with those two either. But guess what? I didn't run to the ER just because I was worried. I called my OB when I was concerned and waited for my scheduled appointments. I used the ER because I thought my baby had died. 

Your story is horrible and nothing you can say at this point will make it any better. 

MamaBish

If you truly were worried, why the "confession" post?

A confession is when you admit the wrong thing you did... So you know you were wrong to do it.

I seriously hope that you are telling the truth because you seem to have a bit of a lying problem. I'm sure that there are many women who have gone through miscarriages in the past that did not pull that shit that you did. Call your doctor and have them see you sooner if you a concerned about your baby!

Now you're just back pedaling to cover you ass. You made no mention of legitimate concerns in your original post and even admitted to lying. Pray for yourself.

Wow, just wow.
Every single person here is anxious to know that everything is ok. You know what you should have done? Called your doctor and requested to be seen earlier. You were not bleeding, your cramps were not that bad.
How dare you take resources away from others who may actually NEED them!

jessrizo

The confession was because I lied about how serious the cramps are they asked me how bad they were I said a 6 but really at a 3. I don't have to lie about my last two miscarriages!

I don't think you understand what others are saying here. Only you know whether or not any part of your story is true

The fact of the matter is, you used ER resources because you lied that cramps were hurting you more than they really were. You also wrote that you know you shouldn't have lied "but you were just curious". You know you did a bad thing and you are back peddling because none of us supports you.

I can't even with this. I get wanting to hear a heartbeat but to waste resources?

Not only did you waste the time of the ER staff, but you're wasting everyone else's money, too!

IF your insurance decides to pay for this visit, then we'll all be helping to cover the cost (through our premiums), too.  IF you have federal or state insurance, then we're paying through our tax dollars.  And IF you're uninsured, then the hospital will basically eat a large portion of the cost, which, yup, you guessed it, ends up coming out of the community's pockets, too.
