hi all,
i'm back at home today. now, got to nurse the baby, nurse the episotomy and the piles haha
well my story :
7.45am Got to hosp, cleared bowels and waited for gynae
9.00am Started at 3cm, Gynae came poked water bag burst, a lot alot of water kena nurse and gynae. the bed was flushed with water, had a change of gown and the amah had to clean the whole place
, and she administered the induce drug and all the drips
1.00pm Gynae came & check, only dilate 4cm. I was like dying in pain already coz of the induce drug and i hadn't taken any epi yet. Almost crushed my hubby's palm. Asked for epi liao.
1.30pm Epi done up, thankful for the miracle drug! On and off, nurse came to administer, increased the induce drug and epi. Half way thru shivering started
4.30pm Dilated 8cm, midwife called gynae.
5.00pm Came n check, baby's head already can be seen outside. Only problem, he's facing up, gynae told me sunny side up baby probably have to push 1-2hrs, if not then have to use vacuum/forcep. A bit disheartening le. Then gynae asked midwife to keep me pushing according to contraction (could feel very little of it). Push lor. 1st push i was like kek-sai from the face. Didn't work, gynae told me to push from tummy. Then she left the delivery suite. After that, pushed from tummy and worked well. probably like 5-6times of contraction (3pushes each) baby was almost out. Midwife called gynae to come back. Gynae was back in awhile, snip below and...
5.34pm One long last push, baby's out! Yipeee... Was happy that he screamed his lungs out. Thankfully
Around 6.30pm Baby's first latch.
higgledy,
ya, delivery suite and the ward is damn cold man! food is great but the aircon is spoiler coz it's damn cold. we complained from day1 to day3 hahaaa
