Currently in a 4 bed ward on a women's health unit of an nhs hospital due to being admitted by my gp a few nights ago.
I developed a severe infection in my leg from a bite and needed i.v antibiotics hence they have kept me in.
I'm 28 weeks pregnant with DC1 after 4 long years ttc and of course this is my first priority but on the curtained ward I'm on, in the bed opposite me is a lady with an ectopic pregnancy and the bed to my left is a young lady (18) experiencing a miscarriage at 12 weeks.
I am lying here trying not to listen (3 feet away from me) and trying to cover my bump because I feel so guilty for sitting here with it. I'm sure they must be so sad and so furious with me. I think I'm coming across as rude through the awkwardness. I am trying to keep my curtains closed but lots of staff in and out means they keep opening them.
AIBU to be behaving this way?
Just don't know what to do.
