Birth date: April 13th
My BS :
Hmmm, where do I start from so I don't write a complete book? God has been merciful to me all through the years. I ttc for 7 years so when I found I was pregnant at exactly 7 years I decided that nothing will happen to this pregnancy. All through the 1st trimester till 3rd trimester I didn't even feel like I was pregnant. Everything was just normal except for the nausea that comes & go.
At 34 weeks my Dr advice we should do elective CS or induced me since the baby was matured & wt our years of ttc that we shouldn't take any chances. I declined because I was scared of surgery (my younger sis died during her 3rd CS) so I guess the trauma was still in me so I declined saying that I'll try normal delivery.
@36 weeks I started having contraction but I didn't know it was contraction. I thought it was the baby playing makosa in the tummy. At week 37 I packed my bag & go to the hospital, I was checked & they said I was 3cm. I agreed to be induced & the Dr inserted a tablet around 7am, I started having contraction but not that serious. By 11am another tablet was inserted that if it didn't work they can do the CS. Gosh, the contraction started fully yet I wasnt passing 4 - 5cm. I was weak & couldn't bear it again. Water has broken since 2pm & the baby was already in distressed. I was worried & at point I started shouted that the Dr should come & do her CS o. I never knew contraction can be so painful (hmmm, mothers are trying. ). When it was around 8:30pm the Dr checked me & said I was 8cm already that I should bear the pain I declined that she should go ahead wt the CS. Na so the baby was brought out by 8:58pm & the Drs were shouting the baby is big o (weigh 3.3kg) while scan was saying 2.5kg.
CS pain isn't Moinmoin but I thank God that it worth the pain looking at the baby anytime I feel relieved because even after birth my baby was placed on oxygen for 2days because she was having respiratory disorder abi wat do they call it?
Though I'm trusting maybe I can have a VBirth in my next pregnancy.
To all the awaiting mothers I pray God will do it & the preggy sisters easy birth injn.
