Sophie - 10 Feb 2008


10 Feb - while kept awaiting for my contractions begun, we watched some movies to overcome my nervousness. Gynae came, he said, still.. no progression.

Dr. Idris decided to get me induced and break my amnion sac. After about an hour, the staff nurse came and checked my dilation. progressed about 1 cm. Kept waiting till contractions are coming at relatively regular intervals but the contractions tend to be mild. When the dilation about 6 cm, the contraction became longer and stronger. At 1st, i still can tahan, and after 1 hour, i've decided to get the sedative injection. Staff nurse was asking me if i wanted either the injection or epidural. I think she might be thinking that a woman like me couldn't stand the pain. I rather not... i think i wont need it since my mom n my sisters could do it. So do i...

About 2.30pm, my contraction getting worst. till 3.00 pm, i knw she is ready... whilst i was in pain, my hubby turn on the Quran on my Macbook and SubhanAllah... my labour wasn't that bad at all. My labour went well, not as i imagined before. No one could tell you what were the experiences you will face during labour. But, I would say it's amazing. It won't bother me as i am jz worried about my baby. With my hubby by my side, everything seems easy to me.
4.15 pm - Natural birth by forceps... Sophie Camilla Arianna... welcome to the world honey..
