Problems with my father.... vent/pout
So before birth my dad was so excited to be a grandfather. Was happy and picking on my waddle, normal things and all was fine.
I went into labor and didn't realize how far along i was becuase inconsistent contractions and high pain tolerance. A few contractions were very painful so i decided to drive to the hospital to get checked out at 12:30 and found out i was 7cm already.
By the time we did my paperwork and got an IV in (4 sticks later bad veins and i was gsb+) it was 45 minutes later and I was at 8cm already.
I texted my mom and my boyfriend. Both who were not home, boyfriend at work and mother coming home from mountain house 5 hours away. My mom got home at 1:40pm, changed clothes and drove with my dad to the hospital. They got there around 2:10, my boyfriend arrived at 2:15. I gave birth at 2:25.
I said no to my dad coming in becuase by the time they arrived i was already 10cm and pushing and honestly didn't want my dad seeing that, BUT no one told him what was going on. He got left in the hallway by himself. I didn't even have time for an epidural or pain meds so I'm sure what he was hearing didn't help either.
He got angry and left the hospital and started walking home! My mom found him about 2 miles from the hospital and they haven't been speaking since. He won't listen to us about what was going on. I tried taking my daughter over last night (live on same street) and he wouldn't even look at her.
Im just sad. His first grandchild and its a mess.
