Hi Ladies, missing for a long time but have been following up here.
I had a long birth story too..but phew everything is over, baby Kaleb was delivered at 40wks+2days.
6th march:
1am+: stomach cramp but shrug it off, tot its normal
2am+: brown discharge
3am+: sticky discharge with some blood stains and contractions every 10mins and called gynae and admit tmc at 5.40am
Reach tmc, sent to observation room, nurse confirm waterbag burst but only 1.5com dilate and was send to resting room until gynae arrive.
8am+: gynae suggest to be put on drip and fasten up dilation since only 1.5cm dilate and baby head still high and facing up
9am+: put on drip and wait for contraction, dnt wan epidural - hahah....
11am+: contractions came, tolerate...tolerate...tolerate..with hubby still working on laptop, tell him off..i in pain yet he could still work...he says finishing soon..
12.30pm: tak boleh tahan liao, ask for epidural...nurse ask me to read and sign, my hubby read the side effects...tell him dnt read liao, jus sign...
1pm: so relax....painless!! Only 4cm dilate
3pm: push to delivery ward and wait..still dilate not much
5pm: dilate only 6cm
6pm: epidural wearing off and tell gynae my lower back painful and he ask nurse to call anethesist to see me again
7pm+: Anethesist came, inform me the lower back not much confidence to block the pain but will give me another dosage of epidural, he tells me the amt of epidural i've taken can be use for c-sect...and standby another dose for nurse incase i want it.
8pm+: 7cm dilate and baby head stil high + facing upwards
then slowly wait for dilation
11am+: fully dilate and nurse ask me to give a few pushes to push the bb head down
12am+(7th march): gynae arrived and starting pushing again and gynae asked whether i wan suction, told him i try again
12.40am: cannot push liao, use suction and bb was out at 1am+!
