hi everyone,
wow! seems like a lot of us 'popped' over the w'end-CONGRATS to all! so much posts to catch up on!!! but so happy for all of you....
anyways, i had my baby girl on 2nd Sept as well at 1204pm. she was delivered at 36wk5days, weighing 2.65kg thru natural vaginal delivery wt no pain relief. so happy my attempt on VBAC was a success
am on TBF wt her as she rejects bottle teat. so far coping well since she's sleeping a lot so not complaining...my other 3 kids also very receptive to her except my twin boys...still in bit of a daze! anyways here is my birth story...
night before, i had strange gut feeling abt delivering. was cleaning up the hse extensively & packed all docs in hospital bag. even called my mom to see if she cn come over in morning...
2nd sept(sat):
630am: woke up to go to bathroom, waterbag burst as i stood up nxt to bed
so had a shower & called my mom. still managed to clean hse a bit while waiting for her...
740am: reached KKH & admitted to labor ward & strapped on to CTG machine. was told that if in 10hrs no progress wt vaginal delivery, hv to go for C-sect!
850am: gynae came, did VE-4cm dilate. had to monitor my prev C-sect scar closely, mke sure no pain etc
1050am: contractions got more intense, another VE-7cm dilated
1130am: strong feeling to push but not fully dilated though baby is very low
senior nurse called for gynae as he had Sat clinic at AMK
1204pm: baby decided not to wait for gynae & was delivered by senior nurse
1223pm: gynae came rushing in, did check & was happy that did not need any stitching up etc.
anyways, decided to name her Saarah Anisha. will try to post some pix up soon
joon,
so funny...suppose to meet you on Sat & who'd think we'd deliver on same day! anyways hope baby is doing well ok...
