Friend of mine is having a complicated pregnancy: gestational diabetes, high blood pressure that's getting hard to control, and inconclusive ultrasounds about the amount of fluid on the baby's brain. The latter is causing my friend a considerable amount of anxiety.
One of the nurses at the birthing center suggested all of these problems are arising because my friend is having her first baby at the age of 33.
My friend has requested that this nurse not be anywhere near her when she gives birth.
