It bring me back down memory lane on my own experience giving birth to my two lovely princesess Little Miss Daughnut and Little Miss Munchkin... It's an experience that for me every woman should experience...It make me love my Ibu more and appreciate mother love...It was such a memorable experience to me..it's hurt..but worthless...
Little Miss Daughnut
On 2nd February 2006, the arrival of my little princess had make my day. She was born on the due date as being predicted by the doctor itself.... I tell you, it was realy hurt OK...For the first timer, it was far away from my imagination.
Exactly a week before she come to the world, I had a realy bad back pain that I can barely stand. My husband had to papah me to the car and so on. I got my MC, but still cannot go back since Partner In Crime had to work. So what I do, get my rest at the Surau....
On the day before...I didn't experience any pain at that time. It just a little bleeding. huh...I am not so worried as I read before that it's normal to have this during the last trimester....how stupid am I..well..I'm a first timer..remember....then, from spot it getting more and more...the bleeding is just like the one you have during menstruation....at this stage, I started to worry..so I ask my Partner In Crime to go for check-up...since it was Chinese New Year and Awal Muharram holiday, not so much of clinic was open.. we end up going to one of the clinic in Sentul. Dr do the check-up and some scan..the baby was doing fine and the dr say not to worry much...it's going to be a week away.OK..so we headed home...in the afternoon, the bleeding is getting worst. So MIL ask us to go to the hospital straight...so we wait until after Isyak prayer to make it easy..
At hospital, the opening is only about 1-3 cm only..so I was awarded.
I can realy feel the contraction only around 1:00 am in the morning....ouch....there goes along the night....my water broke around 2:30 am .... I deal with the pain by walking between toilet and my bed...I can't lay down...The best that I can so at that time was sitting on the chair and hold thigh the pillow...how I wish he was here with me...the nurse did come a few time to check....
At about 6:30 am...the nurse come to check and she was shock that there is already 6cm opening and she had to rush me to the labour room...the time she push me to the labour room, hubby arrive....the nurse said to hubby, "Nasib baik encik cepat"..heheh...
In the labour room, they gave me my uniform. It was an air cond and I feel very dry.ask for some drink but the nurse told me that they cannot offer me any drink just in case for emergency c-sect....when the contraction started to be heavy....I was like...cannot think anymore. All the doa and zikir was like everywhere...Thank dear for being there for me, to go through all the pain...I dunno how hard I squeeze your hand...But I do remember saying that I don't want baby in a few years time.
During the labour process, there was a few trainee and I dun mind bout that, coz all I think was to get the baby out of me. after all the push..and cutting and all....My little baby come out in about 2-3 push only. She come to the world at 8.33 am. Seeing her for the first time, I just cannot describe it in words... Yes..I did it. She is my kuih pau..ahahhah....putih and gebu......
it's a new world
...but it didn't end there..there is another problem.....
I got retained placenta...gosh....got a few jap which I don't know what was that for...the nurse and dr come a few time but still cannot get the placenta out...so another dr was called and she is the one that get the things out by using hands.....seeing her wearing such a long latex glove, I know it not normal case...and at last, it's out......go so many stitch because of that.....and it's not easy to discipline myself during the confinement for the first time....
Well..that's the story....the begining of my new journey.....
part 2 will be post later...hey..it my Little Miss Munchkin story.....
