Section 3: 115-162

  • Rosemary visits her new doctor and he basically not to listen to anyone or talk to anyone about her pregnancy but him. Rosemary starts experiences pain and he tells her that it''' go away soon. Dr. Sapirstein tells her that she will not take pills but will consume an organic herbal drink made by Mrs. Castevet and that she will drink it everyday and visit him every week.
  • Hutch visits Rosemary and finds her appearance frightening. She looks dull tired and thinks she is losing weight. She then tells him that she is pregnant, he then finds her physical appearance even more alarming. He mentions that something might be wrong and asks her what doctor she is seeing. When she tells him Dr. Sapirstein he tells her that the same doctor delivered two of his daughter's children.
  • Hutch and Roman who is Mr. Castevet meet for the first time. They talk a while and both depart. Hutch tells Rosemary to make sure she is perfectly healthy because she should be gaining instead of losing weight. He later calls her and asks to see her the next day.
  • When she goes out to seem, he does not show up. She decides to call and discovers that he had fallen into a coma and is not responding. 
  • Rosemary stops drinking the organic beverage that Mrs. Castevet had been making her.
  • Rosemary has been eating raw meet and tells Dr. Sapirstein and he tells her it's just a craving but she still tries to stop herself. 
  • Rosemary decides to have a party and is determined not to have the Castevets over because she fees they are smothering. Minnie, as Mrs. Castevet is called, tries many times to help with the party and Rosemary will not let her.
  • When Rosemary's friends come to the party they too find her appearance alarming and ask what's wrong. She tells them she's pregnant and also tells them of the sharp pain and what Dr. Sapirstein tells her.
  •  They say that she should see another doctor to get a second opinion because her predicament is odd and should be addressed by another doctor. 
  • Rosemary tells Guy that she is going back to see Dr. Hill to make sure what Dr. Sapirstein is right because she had been experiencing pain since early November and it is now Christmas time. He does not want to hear it and forbids her to go and says he refuses to pay for two doctors. She then says she will pay for it and in the middle of statement the pain ceases and Rosemary thinks she killed the baby. The baby starts kicking again but she no longer feels the pain and proclaim that she knows it wont come back so she decides she wont go see Dr. Hill after all.
Additional Thoughts: 

I think that the story is coming together and than the rising action is coming soon. I think that Rosemary should have stayed with Dr. Hill. I don't understand why Guy was so mad when she mentioned that she wanted to see him. I think the Castevet's did something to Guy. I don't think the baby that she is carrying is normal, I'm starting to think the baby is something supernatural. 

Additional Thoughts: 

Character Sketch's:


Rosemary i Pregnant, looks weak and tired.She tries to make everyone relatively happy.She is somewhat naive about what is happening around her. She thinks that something is strange about the Castevet's.She tries to be polite to the Castevet's, is loving towards Guy,reasons with Hutch,and trusts Dr. Sapirstein too much. She is important to this novel because she is the main character and the plot revolves around her and her pregnancy.I don't necessarily not like Rosemary but she so desperately wanted to get pregnant that now that she is, she believes Dr. Sapirstein when he is ridiculous.


Guy is described as handsome. He is self-centered ans selfish. He thinks that the Castevet's are great and that he has gotten his big break.To the Castevet's he is for lack of a better phrase, he loves them, Rosemary, her but is also selfish and self-centered towards her,and is slowly becoming more angry. He is important to this novel because his character has changed since becoming close with the Castevet's and that seems to be playing a big role in Rosemary's life. What she does and doesn't do and so on. I do not like this character because his demeanor changed for the worst and I am not sure if he is aware of it or not.


Hutch is middle-aged.He warns Rosemary and speaks his mind to her
He thinks that rosemary should not move into the Bramford, thinks that rosemary in not healthy and should go to another doctor.To Rosemary and Guy he is  friendly.Hutch is important to this novel because I believe hutch to be the voice of reasoning.I like Hutch because I think that he is the only character that can see through the illusion that is taking place. I think that he is the only one so far who can see clearly what is going on. 


Mrs. Castevet is good looking for her age.He Secretive and nosey. He is slightly invasive when it comes to Rosemary she tries to do everything
He thinks that is her responsibility to make sure Rosemary is cared for properly throughout her pregnancy. To Guy Friendly, Rosemary, protective
She is important to this novel because takes care and is protective of Rosemary. She also knows something that everyone else doesn't. I do not like this character because she seems to have a secret motive.


Mr. Castevet is good looking for his age. He checks in on Rosemary to the point where it becomes annoying. He thinks that is his as well as him wife's responsibility to make sure Rosemary is cared for properly throughout her pregnancy. To Guy he is  Friendly, Rosemary, protective,and Hutch, intrigued
He is important to this novel because takes care and is protective of Rosemary. He also knows something that everyone else doesn't. I do not like this character because she seems to have a secret motive.
