I'm just not gonna quote the line from an episode of Scrubs I saw the other night, regarding why you might not have liked the outcome if you _had_ eaten solid foods during that time. But yeah, I bet that was not fun. Just thinking about it is making me want Gatorade really badly, actually....
Come on, you don't think those of us who went through childbirth classes (and labor!) are ignorant of the possible consequences of eating during labor, do you? Even the clear fluids are not risk-free.
(I actually smuggled some food into the hospital in my bag to eat during the early stages. And by the end, hunger was not the physical sensation bothering me the most.)
(Okay, I should stop talking about hunger while I'm fasting.)
True enough - hunger was mostly irritating somewhere around Hour 15.
But yeah. :) I just realized that I could give gifts of fresh hamantaschen to both my babysitter's kids and my independent study student tomorrow, fulfilling that particular mitzvah. :)
