Who: Lorna and Alex, maybe OTA? When: Let's fore-date this to midday Where: The Hospital What: Induction
Lorna hadn't spent a very nice night last night, and her day so far wasn't turning out any better. They'd put some stuff against her cervix last night, and she'd attempted to get as much sleep as possible. But the excitement of knowing that Christopher was almost here was... amazing for keeping her up all night. And then they'd arrived this morning and started the pitocin. It was kinda boring, actually, except for when the contractions came. Man... all those women on the tv shoes and movies who screamed through contractions? They weren't kidding. At least Lorna's weren't all that bad yet. ...yet.
She was trying to get some rest after snacking on some lunch. She'd kicked Alex out so he could go and get some food. Her bed was reclined all the way as she tried to nap, but something about having the stupid IV stuck on her arm and the monitors strapped to her tummy made it impossible to sleep. Rest she could do, but sleep? That was hard.
She didn't turn her head as someone stepped back through the doorway, assuming it was one of the doctors or nurses coming in to check on her.
