Shes born! So here the story about my pregnancy ends finally 🙂

By now she’s allready almost a month old and its about time I make a post here to update you guys about what happened.

So I went to the hospital on July 27th for that check-up that the midwife wanted on me. On the way there I wasn’t really feeling too great, I felt every tiny little sandstone that the wheels of my chair touched. Anyhow, The Midwife from the hospital called us in shortly after we got there and she asked me how things where going.. I said well.. I still have no baby XD, t would be nice if she would decide to come out cause its getting painful to walk in the house even a few meters.. Sleeping is getting a problem as well. Okay she said, lets have a look.

So I sit down in her chair/bed whatever those things are called and she checked on me. She quickly told me I allready had 3 cm opening and the mouth of the womb was weakened a lot all ready so if I wanted to and if there was a labor room free then they could break the membranes today give me some hormones that would start up contractions  and I most likely would hold my baby in my arms late this night. I looked at Antonio, we didn’t expected this, that was very sudden,  but as practical as I am and with my quick mind I didn’t needed to think long. Of course I wanted that! Antonio however wasn’t so quickly convinced it be the right choice. The Midwife made a call to see if there was a room free and there was. So she reserved the room for us and then she gave us some time to discuss it together. I was convinced all ready and I told Antonio how much more convenient this was. Having all ready 3 cm opening means the contractions might start tonight anyways, so then we would be at night having to call the midwife and wait for her to come and check if I could go to the hospital. IF the hospital that’s around the corner here has no room at that moment we need to find another hospital with place AND call a cab to get there.  Then we would have the chance it be raining too or that there be complications, etc etc etc.. So to me it was as clear as could be, it was better to get it started now. After talking for a bit about it and giving Antonio some time to think it over he too agreed although he was not 100% convinced. Back to the midwife we told her that we decided to do it. So she called that we where gonna come upstairs to the delivery room and she took care of all the paperwork.

First they did do a CTG scan on me and double checked me, they took some blood, checked my heartbeat, etc etc all the works… Then arround 6 pm after Antonio had returned from picking up my little suitcase with everything in it I could need for the delivery and to spend a night at the hospital, I was ready…

The midwife broke my membranes and shortly after that I started to get hard tummies.. There wheren’t many of those, they soon turned into training contractions and not much later they started to become real contractions.. They did not even gave me the hormones yet and I wasn’t going to need them anymore..  The contractions where hurting, and a lot.. really a lot!!! I was almost going through the roof from the pain. I didn’t wanted painkillers really because I simply don’t like being drugged especially not with my little daughter still in my womb.  The nurse keept telling me to puff the contractions away n to keep breathing etc etc..  But, I couldnt any longer.. I was going to have to push.. The nurse told me I couldn’t and to keep breathing in n out.  Seriously I had to push but no one listened to me really and keept telling me no..  I told her to go get the midwife to ask for painkiller because she was in another room helping another woman at that time.. While the nurse was gone I was alone with Antonio and I feelt with my hand because I was sure I was about to give birth.  And I feelt her head! The nurse came back right when another contraction started, The nurse keept telling me to breathe  and not to push.. I told her I was going to push…  And I did.. Just a little bit because I wanted to open  it up a little more down there before I would push all the way.   The midwife came in and I told her.. I’m pushing now.. Another contraction came and the nurse told me again not to, the midwife looked while I started pushing and she said Oh yes you can push now.. O.O I allready  was LOL  My girl wasnt going to stay inside any longer and there was nothing anyone could do about it. 3 pushes later and my girl was born.

And all this happened within 1 and a half hour after they broke the membranes. Talk about a speed delivery XD. She was perfectly healthy,  her apgar score was 10/10 right away, and sooo beautiful! They wrapped her in some sheet and blanky and put a little hat on her head so she wouldnt catch a cold and gave her to me. I started to cry the moment I saw her, I was so happy to hold her finally and that she was healthy and sooo pretty! The pain, I forgot about pretty fast, she was worth all the pain I gone through!

And ofcourse, here’s her picture. Its one of the first pictures we took and she has an adorable smile on it. 🙂
