Hello mummies
Hee I popped on the 28th Sept.. Bb is 11 days early and actually its all my fault cos I went shopping and walking for 2 days before he is born...so a summary of my birth story.
26th Sept
Went robinsons sale and din buy much. Walked from Centrepoint to Paragon to buy my son's yogurt. There is no stock therefore I asked the cashier to help me to ask if Tanglin Mall has it. They did so I have decided to walk to tanglin mall. Before that, I stopped by Ck tangs to finish my voucher which is due end of the mth. I proceed to Tanglin Mall from Ck Tangs to buy the yogurt. As the yogurt is always out of stock, I bought 8 packets of 4 and some other stuff...It is pretty heavy but I figured that bringing it to the taxi-stand should be ok for me

Woke up in the morning and realise there is some light pink discharge. Got worried and called the nurse and she asked me to monitor and asked me if I have any pain. I said no. Within an hour, no more discharge. My friend came to my place to pick me to go for Isetan sale, which I spent more than 600SGD. Went at 1030am shopped till 1230pm, had lunch and continued another 2 rounds of purchase. I reached home at 4 pm, happily with my purchases.
Had dinner with hubby at Da Paolo and suffered mild contractions but not regular and still bearable.
28/09
Slept through the night with the contractions on and off...Woke up at 7am and feel the pain more intense and at 730am, more regular but still bearable. I went to pack my hospital bag and went to the hospital. In the car, the pain got more intense but lasted half a min. The interval is about 4-5 mins. By the time, I reached the hospital at 815pm, it got more regular and pushed into the delivery ward at 845am. The doc came and checked that I was 7cm dilated. Pushed me into delivery ward at 9am.
Was put on laughing gas and decided not to have epidural. Nurse asked if I wanted injection and I said no. The laughing gas helped me to distract myself from concentrating on the pain and in my mind have the worship song " Lord, we want to lift your name on HIGH" I was feeling high after breathing in the laughing gas.
Gave birth at 1034am without epi. I pushed for 15 mins and it was like pushing a coconut out of me and without epidural I can feel that I am going to explode. I pulled everything around the me, the bed handles, my hubby's shirt and the pillows around me. But it was all worth it. My hubby said, I almost twisted his thumb and when I was pushing, I kept not wanting the gas maskand my hubby kept wanting to put it back hehe
So Anders Phillip was born at 3.12kg and 50cm long. Anton is great and showed no jealousy. I asked him where is bb brother and he point to him when he was in his little trolley bed..hehe
When he reached home, he wanted to touch him and kissed his head several times... Till now, he is still very curious about him...He has been very independant so far so thank God for that...
