Little bear's birth

Finally the day to take lil bear cAme! Excited mummy bun n daddy bear went to the hospital at 6am.

At 7pm, Nurse inserted a pill into me below to induce lil bear. I almost died when she did that! Damn pain n it feels damn invading! I mean like, she kept telling me I need to relax but how to???? How to relax when someone puts their fingers inside u?? OMG. I really hate it when they do this. Can't they use a pincer or something? if the first inducement doesn't work she would have to put in another pill. So I prayed v hard that she won't have to do this again.

Thankfully It worked!!! They gave me breakfast n I ate everything but regretted shortly. They sent me up to the ward to rest. Bun started to feel nausea n went went to shit 3 times. Btw its a Common symptom of labor.

Contractions became more frequent n bun started to feel crammy. Still bearable at this moment.

Then suddenly I heard a POP sound! Water gushed out like crazy. On the bed, floor.. Lucky i was in hospital lor! Super unglam lor! My water broke!! Lucky I wasn't in the office or outside when it happen.

I was rushed to the delivery room. N they put all the tubes over me. N the doc on duty put her freaking fingers INSIDE me again!! WT**** I really wanted to yell out but held back! Why must they keep doing that? Can't they jus use one of those mini cameras? N stop asking me to relax when it's not possible!

Anyway, after tat I decided to take the infamous epidural. Secretly took 2 bites of snickers choc to prepare for the long marathon first. Anyway, the anastist took 1hr to come. I bet it's cos I asked at 12, lunchtime. He came at 1plus. Tried the deep breathing and gas meanwhile.

Finally he came and bun was scared but excited. He poked the life threatening instrument inside me n I jus relaxed. MIRACLE! The pain was gone n I had a painless labour. Muahaha.. Could even play with my Hp. Everything was numb, and I couldnt really feel my legs. I couldn't even feel the dialation check n the insertion of the urine tube into me! I was totally thankful or that.

The excitement began at the last part. 630 the nurse checked my dilation. A pain free check this time. I was so relaxed my dilation reached 10cm already! Muahahaha..

Doc say bb will drop n pushing will be easier if I waited till ard 830. Meanwhile the midwife practiced with me how to push out lil beAr. She told me to think of shitting n I did managed to push him more out a little. It was getting uncomfortable cos started to feel a bit of contractions.

The last hr of labor was ultimate CHAOS. I kept shivering cos they turned off the epidural. Withdrawal symptoms started as the drug wore off. Puked out the gastric juice inside me. I knew I had to get bear out before there was no painkillers left. Time was running out.

There were 2 midwifes, k supporting my back n the doc squeezed my tummy with each contraction. PUSH!!!! bun HUFFED n PUFFED with each contraction. PUSHHHH!!!! PUFF PUFF PUFF. Omg, lil bear was still stuck n bun was exhausted. Doc say try some more if not he will use forcep to pull lil bear out. Which honestly I was so tired I didn't mind. Then the next wave came n then with all my might I squeezed my Lower stomach n lil bear literally FLEW out of me. U know kindof like when u LS?

What a relief! The next thing I heard was lil bear crying. Phew. Music! Doc stitched me up I could feel the string n needle passing thru me. Felt like forever.

Strangely i suffer more after birth. It was really HELL. With no more epidural, j could feel the cramps of the uterus contracting. It's not as bad as labour pain but kindof like menstrual cramps. K made all the calls n took pictures as bun lay there whining in pain. Bun threw up twice n had painkillers stuffed up my ass to stop the discomfort. It was at least 3hrs before everything went back to normal. Or at least it felt that long. I didn't even wanna get off the bed to sit on the wheelchair to be transferred up to my ward. After tat I continued to be sore below. And omg, I was totally had no energy to move myself. I felt like a weak jelly bun.

Lucky got k beside me. Told him how proud of him I was. Brave n showed me tender loving care when I needed him most.

Glad it's over. Really v tramatic experience. Having a sore bottom but I guess it's nothing compared to a c-section cut. Its kindof like piles I guess. Shall be thankful n not complain abt that few stitches.

The night still haunts me but bun is still grateful it went smoothly. Now need to go on to the next stage. Confinement plus taking care of little bear. A new chapter of my life.
