Thnx for all the reviews.I try to put in about 2 new chapters a day.Please
R&R :)
Lucy got a pain killer and was now at 8 cm.They were planning on doing a c- section but wanted to wait a bit more.Dr. Hastings was checking Lucy's moniters when he turned around looking worried.
DrH: Get me Dr. Thomas (to the nurse).
J:What's the matter?!
DrH: OK, don't worry but one of the baby's heartbeats is dropping.It's one of the girls.If we don't get her heartbeat up...well you know.And also if her heartbeat doesn't get up the other girl's heartbeat may drop too, and possibly the boy's heartbeats too.
L:Well how are you going to get it up then?!
DrH: First I want to get Dr. Thomas to come look at the babies heartbeats and then discuss with him what we should do.
J:What do you want to do?
DrH: Well we can wait a tiny bit to see if the heartbeat goes up, but if it doesn't I want to give you some medication.If that doesn't help, then I want to do a c-section and get the babies out as soon as possible.
L:Ok (barely whispering).
After Dr. Thomas looked at the heart beat stats he agreed with Dr. Hastings plan.They waited 20 minutes and the heartbeat didn't change.After a small dose of some medication they waited another 15 minutes.Dr. Hastings checked the heartbeat stats again after the 15 minutes. Unfortunatley nothing had changed and the other girl's heartbeat had begun to drop too.
DrH: We need to get these babies out.
Dr. Thomas:Dr. Hastings come here. They huddled around the moniters whispering.They broke apart.
DrH: Ok, now stay calm but the second girl's heartbeat dropped even further and the umbilical cord is getting wrapped around her neck.
J:That doesn't sound good.Then we have to go get them out.
DrH: That's what I would want to do.But...
L:But what!
DrH: But the boys are too far down for us to be able to perform a c- section.We're going to have to do this normally.
J:But what about our girls?
DrH: First we're going to deliver the boys, they're still fine, then as soon as possible we'll get the girl with the cord wrapped around her neck out.We have to cut that cord off so she can breath easily, and we have to do it fast.The other girl isn't out of danger either.Her heartbeat is still low.We're going to do everything we can to save your babies.We need to get them out fast though, which is going to be our hardest obstacle.
L:Alright.Well, let's get going then.
DrH: Ok, I need to prep the special delivery room and get all of my most experienced nurses.We should be ready in 7 minutes tops.
L:Are you sure we can wait that long?
DrH: Well , we're going to have to. He runs out of the room.Lucy and Jeremey wait 7 long minutes while they fill the rest of the Camdens in on whats going on.Everyones worried.
