I'm STILLfucking pregnant.

I went to the hospital again today to get an NST and BPP.  Lucy passed everything, which is really good.  But they wouldn't admit me.  My mw called ahead and told them I was coming and that her recommendation was that they admit and induce me.  They won't b/c they don't like mw's.  No, really, I'm serious.  They straight up told me that if I had an OB or if she had an OB at her birthing home they'd let me stay.  But they weren't willing to admit me since she doesn't have privelages there and is not a doctor.  It doesn't matter than I'm so far past my due date.  It doesn't matter that if I were going to an OB they'd admit and induce me.

It's all very frustrating.  It's stupid hospital politics, and moreso the arrogance of the on-call doctor who doesn't like the idea of a birthing home mw.

Tomorrow my mw will call the OB she consults with and ask him to call the hospital and have me admitted.  So hopefully tomorrow will be Lucy's birthday.  So my mid-November baby is actually going to be a December baby.  Really irritating.  I'll be happy once I have her in my arms safe and sound.  Not the birth I wanted, not the month I was expecting, but when you're this incredibly late all that you can focus on is ensuring that your baby is going to be healthy. 

I just spoke with Cyndelgrace (who's awesome, BTW), and will keep her updated tomorrow.  Here's hoping that I get admitted and have my baby tomorrow!
