My birth story...
25.02.2011
3.30pm: admitted at Mt A, contractions every 2-3 mins. 1cm dilated. Drip given to help fasten things up.
5.30pm: contractions as close as 1-2 mins, 3cm dilated.
8.30pm: contractions still at 2-3 mins interval. But still stuck at 3cm dilated.
10.30pm: gynae came, contractions still as near, still stuck at
3cm. Decided to take me off drip, as it's nt helping but
instead slowing my contractions a lil.
12 am: Hubby stayed over in labour ward w me, thinking I
could gif birth anytime frm nw till tmr. Asked fr pethidine as the contractions were pretty painful n strong.
