Yes I lost her at 7 months. Found out about her abnormality at late 5 months. Doc said she will not survive upon birth. I waited 7 months, took her out and hoped for miracle. But she couldn't make it. She was with us about 15 minutes only. Life was like hell at that time. But I have fully recovered from the pain. I've surrender myself to the God and let Him plan for my future. Although she is not with me but at least my little angel is in God's arm.

During oscar they r looking for presence of nasal bone, n they will measure the thickness of the nuchal translucency, which is this fluid pocket at the back of the baby's neck. Think normal is 2.5mm n below.

Ya lor. Then must be well prepared and determined! The half hearted kind will suffer in the end. Because when they were shouting for epi, the nurses said too late, the anaesthetists all gone home. For me, pain or no pain, i would ask for epi right away. The moment i reached my delivery suite. Hahahaha

How's the feeling of having epi injected into spinal area? Is the pain bearable?
 
Summer_babe said:
Some of my friends had laughing gas, it made them feel happy and high until they forgotten about the pain. But it last about 15 minutes only then you will feel pain again. I am not sure how much gas can we take. Many of my friends didn't had epi and they forgot about their pain immediately once they saw their baby. So I insist with my decision. Either natural birth without epi or emergency c-section.

No limit on the gas... i refuse to pet go of the mask even though i had epi haha ... coz my #1 delivery they confiscated my laughing gas... n epi ran out they refuse top up n din wan.give me back laughing gas.. the pain is like wanna die liao coz big baby...

So #2 i grab n refuse to let go of laughing gas to stand by lol

I see. I like epi too! Greatest invention ever imo! Hahaha.. :D

Though i am very scared of the procedure. I always got scolded by the anaesthetists because i cannot curl properly. Lol. Actually contraction pain still not too bad. The scary part is the stitching and cleaning of uterus i feel. Very painful without the painkiller.

Totally painless procedure. They would have numbed the area before the procedure. But once the epi was in, i felt a cold rush down my spine then legs will start to shiver for first few minutes. But don't watch the video on the procedure if you have plans to take epi.

I can imagine the big baby kind of pain. My boy's head circumference was 35.5cm. No more epi and no top up. I felt the tear. Ouch!!!
 
Summer_babe said:
One of the reason that I want to have a natural birth without epi because I want to experience a real 'motherhood' but I am still feeling nervous la... try not to think about it.

wah u say like that... @PTB7674 and I will not get to "real" motherhood liaoz :p

Because my labour was 18 hours for my girl. I took 3 bottles of the epi already so no more top up. So towards the end still can feel the pain. Actually epi is a kind of controlled painkiller. Still can feel the pain and we adjust the dosage according to our tolerance. So if it's down to zero, it wears off almost immediately.

i am imaginign you during labour sure very fierce lolz

Painless.. juz keep taking deep breath of the laughing gas.. it makes u relax n painless n easier for them to insert coz when u r tense ur back is stiff so hard to insert
Click to expand...

I dun remember I inhaled laughing gas for my epi (spinal c sect) but I need to curl up to let her insert the epi needle... when the epi is flowing to your flow, you can feel the sensation (fluid flowing through your veins kind)... then you feel our eyes going to shut, so i rmbr asking Dr Tham can I close my eyes first... he said go ahead... but I can feel all the apparatus sound, the tugging and finally the crying!

after c sect, shiver like hell, brrrrrrr

But they told me i cannot be nervous or move .. totally cannot... so they told me take as many laughing gas as i can before they insert...

after the stiches heal, do you need to get them removed? or they will dissappear by themself?

do you feel painful when you pee or shower?
