Early in the morning at 4-6am+ on 17 Oct 2007, I felt abdominal pain on my tummy… so I went to toilet as what you and I will normally do… but after awhile the pain roll-up again even after the toilet. This time round I know she is arriving soon after 38weeks of waiting and endurance.
Guess what, I quickly ran to the toilet to take a quick shower, wash my hair and blew my hair, con-currently I got my helper to ring my hubby up to inform him about this good news.
You may wonder how about the pain… is it gone?
The pain did not stop there of course. It continues with an interval of 3-5 min each time. When the pain getting more intense each time, I took a deep big breathe and relax. After which I continue with what I want to do to distract myself from the pain. BUT I forgot to take my breakfast! This is important in case you do not know if you are delivering in the morning.
It gives you strength and you will not be vomiting due to medication.
At about 7am+ almost 8am, I reached hospital and the nurse quickly pushes me in to the delivery ward. When the nurse checks on me, she said I have dilated 8cm which can be delivered anytime NOW! I remembered it was about 8:15am and the baby can be out before 8:45am.
She hurriedly phoned the doctor up and the doctor in fact just woke up. But she claimed that she will be able to arrive before 8:45am. I wonder how?
As my contraction getting more intense, I can feel my back and stomach are so tight like MC 100 times more..BUT the worst part was my back ache… Oh my Lord, I can’t take this pain as it was really bad! I can bear the contraction pain but not this one!!!!!
In fact, I have no strength to push it out as the pain is way beyond words can describe. In fact I struggled a lot with my back ache even during my pregnancy due to my nature of work.
Baby is supposed to be out by 8:45am but did not come out as her mummy is lying down on the bed relaxingly enduring the pain. Deep inside my heart, I cried out to GOD and asked GOD for strength and help! I told Jesus, please help me.. I can’t imagine the pain he had gone through at the Calvary 2000 years ago. My pain is just nothing as compare to his. His pain brings life, hope and freedom to mankind. It is so meaningful and glorious! While mine….
Believe or not, at 9am+, GOD send me an angel, she (one of the nurse) motivates me, asking me …
“Do you want to change your sitting position? As it may be better to ease your pain while you are delivering…”
Of course I listened and changed my sitting position. Cox I can’t be letting my baby waiting for too long as she supposed to be out by 8:45am.
Thank You GOD! After changing the sitting position, the pain has been reduced and it was so easy to push her out. Within 5 minutes, she is shown! I remembered the time was about 9:13am.
In fact, I never believe that delivery can be so easy if you got the right position, right strength and strong determination, of course most importantly GOD in your heart!
I give all glory and praises to GOD!
She is my 2nd one! She shall be called Abigail! The source of joy…
Advice to pick-up: SIMPLY JUST RELAX and TRUST on HIM!
