Hello Lovelies
I'm back to update about Sherrine's birth story. I'm sorry for not updating like a week plus, because Sherrine is really naughty and choose not to arrive on Earth on her estimated due date so my blog post was delayed till now and I guess it's gonna be a really long birth story of Sherrine, therefore if you think you'll get bored reading then you can just close off the tab anytime :)
27th May 2013, Monday
It was Sherrine's estimated due date, whereas she was suppose to be arriving on Earth already but she did not. I was told by the doctor on my last visit on 22nd May that if Sherrine still got no sign of labor, I will have to be induce on the 27th May, which is her due date. Went to Hospital with Dad & Mom, done the routine test, visit doctor and check that I was 2cm dilate, still no sign of labor, so I was told to do CTG and scanning , then I'll go back to doctor and see if I'll goes for inducing. After long hours of waiting and checking, doctor told me to wait till Friday, 31st May if by than still no sign of labor then I'll go for inducing.
It was really a wasted trip and I thought I have to be induce on that day that makes me so nervous -_- End up I still got to wait. And so, went back home with Dad & Mom.
Days and days has pass,
Days and days has pass,
Sherrine still got no sign of labor despite I do lots of walking and squatting.
Till 30th May 2013, Thursday
I went to Singapore Expo. I went there for Motherhood Fair, Food Fair & John Little Mega Sales alone. Travel all the way there and end up not buying anything. LOL. Went to bed at around 1am plus, feeling all nervous because I'm going to induce Sherrine the next day.
31st May 2013, Friday
Went to prepare and had a long bathe. Headed to KKH with Mom, reach at around 9am plus. Do scanning and CTG for an hour plus. Waited for Doctor till around 12pm plus whereas my appointment was at 11am plus. Was quite pissed off for the waiting time but what to do? It's subsidies. LOL. Anyway, seen the doctor and check that I'm 2-3cm dilate already. Was told that I don't have to put the pill to induce, but will break my waterbag to induce. I thought right away I'll be put to delivery suite but no, was brought to the admission area to have admission done. Okay, so after everything was done it's already 2pm plus and I'm took to the ward. It was ward 32, bed 13. I remember I was in ward 32 when I'd Shervelle too! So coincidence! :P
Anyway, after that we waited for almost till evening, the delivery suite was still not available. Dad, Sis and Shervelle came to find Mom & I. After that, they went home at around 8pm plus as the visiting hours is only till 9pm. Then after that around 10pm, the man came because he has some documents to be submit and so he stay and waited with me but he was at elsewhere.
I waited since afternoon 2pm for the delivery suite until I got really fed up and I keep asking the nurse and they keep telling me that it's still not available so he text me at 2am plus asking me if the delivery suite is available? I told him it's still not available yet. He went straight to the delivery suite and ask, and LOL they told them it's available and later they will sent a nurse to bring me down -_-
It was Delivery ward 21, the same delivery ward as Shervelle. Damn coincidence, LOL.
Went in to the delivery ward at around 2.30am. They put on the IV drip for me and also gave me antibiotics because my GBS was tested positive. After that, they broke my waterbag at around 3.50am. CTG is also on, and they start monitoring my contraction. It was not regular so they want to put me on drip for regular contraction, and so they ask if I want to take epidural. I told them yes!
Around 5am, the doctor came to inject epidural for me and after epidural I was on drip for contraction. The whole process was quite relaxing because no pain was felt and the contraction are regular and quite close also. Around 6.40am, I was only 4cm dilate still got a long way to go, I thought. Wait and wait, so around 7.45am I was told that I'm 5cm dilate, so it took about an hour plus for 1cm and at that moment I started crying because one of the staff nurse told me that my baby's heartbeat is dropping and I was like "WHAT THE FUCK?" I cry non-stop and can't stop worrying, until a senior staff nurse came in.
She start to explain and comfort me about why the baby's heartbeat will drop and she told me not to worry, she even say, "you only worry when you sees me worry." She ask me to smile, to be cheerful because baby is still inside me and my feeling is what baby's feeling too. After that, she say, "if later you have those shitting feeling, immediately press the nurse bell okay?" I was like, okay.
Not long after she went off with another nurse, I start to feel contraction and I start to feel like I'm gonna shit anytime but I wait and wait because the feeling wasn't that strong at all still. After that I can't stand already, I press the bell and told the nurse I got this shitting feeling, so she inform the doctor and then 3 of the MO came in with the two nurse along too. They check that I was 10cm dilated already at 8.35am but baby's head still not that low to push yet so still got to wait.
After that, around 9am plus the senior staff nurse that comfort me came in and she's the one that helps me deliver Sherrine! :') She ask me to push when I got this shitting feeling but out of the sudden, the feeling gone and is not coming back then she say, okay never mind you push now even if you got no feel! I was like "HUH?!!" Okay, so 1, 2, 3, PUSHHHHHHHH ~ Within 3 push, I heard Sherrine's cries and then they place her on my chest. :') I cried so badly, really so badly than I give birth to Shervelle .. Probably because of the journey throughout this pregnancy. :')
After that I rested there till around 12pm plus then I was push back to the ward. It was such a tiring journey. It's so damn tired that I actually sleep the nights off after the visiting ~ However at around 9pm plus, doctor came to tell that Sherrine was being pushed to Special Care Nursery because she's not sucking well and throwing out milk :( I got so worried and keeps praying ~
Till the next day, 2nd June 2013, Sunday
I was able to discharge but Sherrine still couldn't discharge yet. :(
On the 3rd, 4th, 5th June 2013 -

On the 5th, she still couldn't discharge because her jaundice level was still high but all the blood test result are alright :') Thanks God for hearing my prayers! :') And so, finally on the :
6th June 2013, Thursday
Sherrine is finally able to be discharge. I'm so happy to receive the news and went down with Dad & Mom to bring Sherrine home! :') When I reach home, Shervelle was at the door clapping her hand showing that she's very excited and she even wanted to carry Sherrine! Glad that she love her sister! :")
