Waiting around the maternity ward can be SO boring at times. At least when one is ill and on a regular ward there is pain and discomfort to take away the dead hours but its all so different waiting for a baby to arrive. The couples are healthy and clock watching is the only thing to do, even if there is television, videogames and books on offer. I know that the waiting is nothing compared to what is at the end of the wait but its still a time I wish I could speed up and fast forward.
I also have a bad habit if there are other women and visitors in the beds opposite, I cannot stop myself from glancing over at them every five minutes. Im sure some if they catch me doing so, think im making eyes at them or something but its nothing like that and neither am I being nosey. Its just an irresistable urge that I get and I simply HAVE TO look. Luckily we have mostly had the ward to ourselves so I haven't been doing it but its a strange urge when it comes.
