Not mommy related, but any nurses on board?

DH just put the screwgun sort of through his finger....blood everywhere....he's afraid he hit the nerve....it stopped bleeding & he has it wrapped, but he said its tingly....

he wants to avoid the hospital but what do you think?

(Our neighbor is a nurse but she won't be home till 12)

PS--I just heard him pick up the screwgun again...and get back to work although he's still in pain

Holy crap!!!!! Cindy, any update?

I hope he's okay!

Well girls, thanks....

he wrapped it in gauze and I made him walk over to the nurse's house across the street, but the mom (who's a nurse) was asleep & her daughter said it was her only night off and that sister said the other sister would be home at 12 & she'd send her over....well she never came over & by 12 he said it feels better & is only "a little tingly still."

He wrapped it & kept working so either that means a) he's stubborn & feels fine b) he's stupid & is still in pain & denying it.

He's asleep now (I'm pumping, was easing my baby back to sleep)

We'll see how it is in the am.

Scared the hell out of me...I was in the other room & I hear him screaming ouch, ouch, AHHHHHHH. I walk in there & there's blood all over his pants, his shirt, the floor....not fun....
