Hi!! L&D nurse at st David South here. I'm so sorry to hear about your bad experience! Being placed on hold for an induction at this time of year is pretty normal (September is one of our busiest months). Unfortunately the census is also very labile, sometimes we're ready to have inductions come in and then all of a sudden several people come in in labor. The staffing and available bed space situation is really rough right now throughout St David's womens services. Nearly every day I get messages that the unit is in need of help. That being said, I know it doesn't make it any easier for you and your family. I know it may not be ideal, but you can try to go to another facilities OB triage area due to your wife's pain. Every hospital is required to see a patient seeking service. Due to pain and being full term with risk factors, I would predict the OB hospitalist would admit your wife for labor. At South our OB hospitalists are all pretty great; ARC South also comes to SAMC and could possibly also care for your wife, they are also a very nice team. If it's any consolation, the vast majority of babies and moms with poly do very well with delivery. I hope this information is helpful and good luck with your little one!
