Karen, That sounds so familiar. We cannot skip a few days or he slides back into Asexual Land and it's then up to me to drag him back to the land of the living. I hate this dynamic. I'm hoping that it's gone by the time I'm healthy!
I cannot nurse her on the day of the surgery and will have to pump and dump for 24 hrs. After that, I will supposedly be able to nurse her for the additional 48 hrs I will be there, hooked up to IV. So it looks like hubby will have to take several vacation days just to be there to hand me our baby every couple hrs. He is not thrilled with this prop, of course, so I am trying to think of other people that would be able to do this but I'm coming up short. Plus, they would inevitably get on my nerves as I sat there, doing nothing but waiting to get out. I detest hospitals, as it is. H is being unusually uninterested in this entire thing. He keeps assuring me that he was "callous" but is sorry for it and will try to be more interested tonight. Hmph, says I.
I am most worried about the baby and the impact all this will have on her. I hate that I have spent 4 of her 6 months ill and with a lessened milk supply, due to a constant flow of antibiotics. POOR baby!
