2--Saturday

Your second day was a blur of happy "skin-to-skin" sleep. You slept a lot and we slept a lot.


I really hated how nurses would come in and disturb your sleep every 2 hours, poking and prodding you with stethoscopes and thermometers. Some nurses were gentle, but some were rough and callous. I felt murderous rage at one nurse in particular who stripped you naked, left you lying there shivering and screaming as she worked at a snail's pace.

But if I thought that was bad, boy, was I not prepared for the trauma of the next day!
