Everytime my husband and I visit my OB, my heart seems to thud quite so fast.We've been through the whole process yet it seems like it was our first. My mind is on overdrive..what if somethings not right?Is my baby ok? I've been in a cloud of fear the whole time I was carrying our baby.
It was funny reminiscing the times before I had my first baby. We were not quite prepared with all the itty-bitty things the baby's supposed to have. Its because we're both too relax and confident the baby will arrive at its supposed date. We were just enjoying each other's company on our so-called honeymoon.
It wasn't until we're on our way to the OB for my monthly check-up that I felt something different. It wasn't pain yet my belly seem to harden once in a while..yet I ignored the symptoms. As we waited in the clinic, I was kindda restless because we have a prior engagement to attend to and since the doctor isn't there yet, we'll tend to be late. I keep telling my husband that we might as well go but then we both decided to wait a little while. That's when the doctor showed up.
Although there were patients who were there before us, she decided to let me in first. As I layed down the cold bed, I was quite confident we'll be finished in a short while. But, as she started her ministrations with me..her expression changed. She called my husband and told us that I'm already starting to labor although she was worried because I wasn't in pain. Calls were made and she told us to go to the hospital because i'll be giving birth anytime soon. We were so shocked..It's not even my due yet!
As I entered that cold maternity room..my heart and mind were raising. What will happen now? But as time flew, nothing as in there was no pain. I can only feel my belly harden everytime the midwife would tickle it. After finishing 3 ceasarians to other patients, my OB decided then and there to get me ready for delivery and said that since there was no pain..they had to resort to inducing me.
There I was..lying down on a cold bed..preparing myself for what it is to come. Everything was so fast. After being induced, I started to feel the pain..but for just a moment and then there it was. A little voice crying and that was when I blacked out. It was not a dream..our precious bundle is here..
