Birth Story

Pregnancy was a smooth ride. I had plenty cold water and sweet junks and food unlike my first boy's pregnancy. I also learnt its normal for some babies not be naturally very active (Jackie chan kind of active) in the womb. Naturally. The very gentle ones. Few kicks here and there but no dramatic turnings.

March 16th (EDD) Night
I told hubby to come and suck bobby as it is the only trigger for baby movement, Braxton Hicks\false contractions. He sucked for a little over an hour. Like that like that lower abdominal pain started that night. Throughout the next day, the 17th the same thing. I went to the hospital on 18th morning, they checked me and brought out one orisirisi ( I think an accumulation of whitish stuff, I used to have on and off infection. Yes, the infection was a new one for me. I didn't have it in my first). The nurse reported that "it has not established".

At that point I could not understand the simple English she was speaking grin. Pains! Little did I know abi much had i forgotten how it starts from blues to raggae grin. I was like "madam, explain this ' it has not established' something very well, cos my body has established and is experiencing labour grin. They said I should walk around a lot and come back if any change(s).

I went home and prepped for long distance trekking. I achieved a reasonable distance came home and rested. The abdominal pains were coming in stronger. By 5pm, off we went to the hospital. They checked, 2cm. Oboooi! shocked Is this how I so much hyped myself to endure till when I will land in the hospital and put to birth in under 10 minutes of arrival will end? grin grin omo x 1 billion!

They advised I stay back maka na abani eteka... because the night is too far. Me, still wanting to achieve my wishful thinking (in my first, the hospital didn't allow my husband stay with me. A different hospital from the present. I just truly and really didn't want to experience labour alone for another long hours) said I will go and come back. Around past 9pm I started seeing stars. The pains were coming strong on my waist, not just abdominal and kind of regular.

Hubby quickly brought our stuff out, in the process my flask broke. The plastic part was just breaking at each touch (expired plastic I later suspected it to be), he managed to save the vacuum though. I am mentioning this because at that moment if I was sane, I knew how I would have reacted grin grin I bought the flask with my money with so much assurance of its durability. But then, it was like I should even break the vacuum on top for trying to delay our movement to the hospital grin.

We left for the hospital and every time the contraction hits, hubby will stop driving and park. Kai! We got to the hospital at a little past 10pm. Climbing the stairs was a task. I was checked and told 3cm. 3 qwharrt!!!! shocked shockedembarassed. ADDITION On trying to get down from the bed, as I sat up I felt nauseous and threw up a good deal. The nurse was like its a good thing to vomit 'cos it helps to push the baby further down. I told hubby that i was only 3cm and he said " the last time you were 3cm and it didn't take long you jumped to 10cm and delivered immediately. " That calmed me down a bit. The boost and I needed not like it works exactly that way always. But at least, at all at all na winch cheesy.

Hubby was with me throughout, praying, massaging my waist, encouraging me. When I started feeling the urge to push, I tried to hold it for 3 contractions and then started screaming mostly in my dialect "I can't hold it oooo" "they won't listen to me ooo... I can't hold it any longer". The nurses ran out and were telling me not to push, they were ready to check again to see how far I had gone. As they were still talking, my water bursted forcefully and I shouted " oputala oputala oputala!" grin grin. They came and looked closer to confirm (I went to lie on one of the benches in the antenatal room, it was dark there but very airy). I had already change to wrapper when I was checked at 3cm. When they confirmed it was amniotic fluid, I was immediately transported to the delivery room.

Two pushes and my baby boy came out at 1: 05am 19th March weighing 3.3kg. He was given to me while the placenta was delivered. My hubby was invited into the labour room. He witnessed it all. I had tears which was sown. The sewing up felt like it will never end, I was feeling every prick despite the injections. But it ended and was cleaned up thoroughly.

To God be the Glory!

Team March, it is a pleasure going through the journey with y'all. God bless us and our new LOs.

Wow... Congratulations mama,may he be all u prayed for but how come like how many times did scan results gave u XX.Boys are ruling for March.

The thing is my hospital won't give us directly the scan result. The sonographer sends it to the gynaecologist's system and during your appointment with him, he updates you on any issue, if any. I didn't ask of baby's gender. I was just so positive and sure it was XX. The symptoms I had was totally different from my first son's. Sweet tooth and the likes... grin cheesy

The thing is my hospital won't print scan result out for us, they only send it to the gynaecologist's system. If you ask the sonographer's any question, they will direct you to the gynae. So, I didn't bother asking the gynae during my appointment for the gender of my baby. I was so certain it was a girl cheesy cheesy grin. My symptoms were completely different from that of my first son. Sweet tooth and the likes...

Let's sha be rocking our pink like that grin

Same here. And i read that its not like the frequency means labour is approaching yet but I am hoping sooner than later of will end in praise.
