Meet the coming New Year in the hospital - the prospect, of course, is not the most pleasant. But do not be discouraged! Sometimes doctors insist that the future mother stay in the hospital for preservation even despite the holidays. Of course, this is not too fun. However, as the famous Dale Carnegie said, if fate gives you a lemon, try making lemonade out of it.
Think about the baby
Do not try to escape home in any way - by persuading the doctor or hiding his true state of health. According to medical statistics, most of the "newcomers" come with complaints to the hospital on the morning of January 1, after salutes, champagne, olivier and rollercoaster.Would you risk taking your happiness next year - not a fun New Year's Eve, but health the kid.
Irina, Mama Maximka: "On the morning of the 31st, during the detour, I begged the doctor" to have a day off "on receipt with all the truths and crooks.I really wanted to celebrate the holiday with my husband.In two I was released, and at 11 pm I came back, in festive attire and ... with fights. It's good that the term was already decent. "I wanted a New Year's wish in the prenatal period, and it came true in a few hours - my son appeared."
Create a mood
Do not cry and feel sorry for yourself - hospital rooms from this will not turn into a banquet hall, and a nurse into a Snow Maiden. But a positive attitude will make a pleasant place from a sad chamber. Decorate it with tinsel and balls, cover the festive table, more precisely, the nightstand, turn on the TV with New Year's concert. Pay attention to yourself, because the pale face and bun on the head only spoil the mood. Make a hairstyle and a light make-up, put on beautiful clothes. Of course, hairpins and evening dress you are hardly useful, but a tunic with comfortable pants will come in handy.
Alina, Ilya's mother: "Before the holiday of us, unlucky mothers, there were only three left on the floor. First we called our husbands and cried in the tube, and then united and arranged a wonderful holiday. They asked their relatives to give us all the delicious things, decorated the room with garlands and met the New Year with a lot of fun. There's something about it! Who else, but not other future mothers, with such ecstasy will discuss models of strollers and beds in New Year's Eve? "
Engage the public
A great way to improve your mood is to lift it to someone else. Neighbors in the ward, and even the hospital personnel who stayed in the hospital probably also want to go home, to the family. Treat them with sincere congratulations, small gifts or treats. If the doctors on duty do not object, you can even conduct in the chamber improvised competitions and quizzes.
Vika, Alenka's mother: "Being the mother of two sons, I dreamed of my daughter. But the ultrasound doggedly maintained that another boy would be born. On New Year's Eve in the hospital, Mom and I arranged a sort of fortune telling on the child's floor, and I pulled out a pink ribbon. And soon the New Year's miracle really happened - I did not have a son, but a daughter! "
Arrange a teleconference
Be sure to call your family and friends, and they will become a little closer. Just do not be upset at all. There is no reason to feel lonely, because you meet this holiday with the closest and dearest person - your baby!
Zoya Mama Roma: "Knowing that I will have to meet New Year in the hospital, I asked a close friend in advance to buy presents to my relatives and friends (explaining in detail what I want), and when they came to visit me, I handed them a nurse with bundles down. The next morning I received a return packet with all sorts of nice gifts and a bunch of postcards. "
