So here I came to the floor of the maternity
... At first I was going to give birth soon!
Normally, everything should be fine. A normal delivery. It was X-rayed to see if the baby went right through my pelvis, and there were no problems.
I remember those radios had to squirm, but when you're close to 140 pounds, contort when we are pregnant with 7 or 8 months, it was not easy.
was the first time I felt discomfort for a medical exam! We then settle down
on a bed, and start monitoring.
Monitoring is something really funny! It installs two
bedchamber belly straps, with two sensors, one for the baby's heart and one for contacts.
therefore means the baby's heart beat, and we measure the frequency and intensity of contractions.
Good, contacts, there were good, but they were totally ineffective!
That explained my discomfort the day before and the fact that I feel so tired today.
Frank was gone for a while and get my affairs, and it did not come back! I began to find the time long! Nurses for that matter!
his return was expected for a long time so he can bring me a large t-shirt or a nightgown before I branch perf, because after it was complicated.
Then, after several hours (two or three), we could not wait, you had to pass me in the delivery room and make me an injection of a product to induce labor more effectively.
So totally naked I joined the delivery room that resembled nothing so much as an operating room!
What a funny place to host a baby! A cold universe, medicalized ... so we just want a cozy ... But hey, it was pretty much as bad as elsewhere in this brand new maternity and super modern.
So here I installed, I was infused, it puts the monitor, and go!
Ah! The first contractions ... and it's not funny at all ... damn, it hurts! Franck finished
not come in costume ...?!
Had taken so long is that he had taken the time to take a shower, combing hair, shaving, and dressing in a suit, tie, etc..
When he arrived in the delivery room, all smartly dressed and with her gown and slippers in blue paper, I died laughing!
I ask him why he dressed like that and he said he would be good to welcome his daughter? "
thus began a long wait ... It was 17-18 hours.
It was! I was going to have a baby!
I was pretty chilled, I was not afraid.
However, I was in pain.
Breathe, breathe, take the dog ... All that was really nice, but I had trouble.
Frank tried to laugh with me, to relax!
That damn machine that was used to measure the contractions had become my enemy.
Between each contraction, the display was zero, and then the contraction was more powerful, the more he rode ... I saw the numbers climb, I was wrong, and I was wondering when it would stop!
Frank joked, saying: Well, no, there you are up to 27 is not much, trying to improve your score ...
Until then, the service was super quiet, but tonight We were three women to give birth ... Nothing in the day, and we had all decided this evening!
A midwife came to see me regularly, and do the "inspection" of the cervix ...
She ends up deciding it was time for the epidural.
Owl !
So we asked Frank to come out, then made me sit down, and I was stuck a needle in the back and injected a drug!
was supposed m'anesthésier entire lower body! I'm still waiting ?!!!!
must say that the work was not moving very fast, they had the dose for the trigger ... twice!
And then, suddenly, when I heard that there was already stirring in the hallway because another woman was giving birth, I felt something weird ... As an urge to push ... nay, a desire, a need!
I had already lost the water ... and preparation for childbirth, although we had discussed this point we need to push ... It does not quite understand when they speak, but then I saw exactly what they meant!
So I asked Frank to go look for someone there, I gave birth ...
He looked at me with astonishment, saying, bah wait there they are busy ...
hey, how are you, they are busy, but I'm mad me, I give birth here, now! We need to pick someone.
At this point, I saw the first signs of panic in his eyes! Until then, he did well, or at least he tried, with a few jokes, but now it's scary!
He came to understand that the baby was coming ...
So he ran off and went looking for someone.
The midwife arrived and called for reinforcements, crying a little ...
was panic ... injected products were eventually have an effect ...
Half an hour ago we thought we had more time, but now the baby was there! He wanted out!
panic on board, the physician is currently completing a delivery, and nothing is ready for me! Quick
we install the brackets, we settle down properly, and it begins ...
When I tell you, push you ma'am!
Euhhh, until then, I was Zen, but that now was the great, great panic.
I had one wish, that my mother is there to hold my hand!
My whole body was shaking ... They told me to push, but I had trouble! It had been hours since I endured contractions, epidural and fucking there was no difference. I felt great my feet, my legs and my pelvis ...
I also felt the baby's head that did not pass!
I do not know why but I asked Frank to leave.
This time I felt very intimate, and I did not want him to see me well, maybe.
So he went out, the wise women came to help me ...
I still remember yelling at the doctor telling me ... Him: Push Madam, and I answered him, but I push, but you do not see it does not! I feel it's going to rip me!
He then spent some Vaseline, and ultimately played an episiotomy.
And then, oh miracle, the baby comes out ...
At this point, I immediately felt a great emptiness, as if something had been sucked out of me, a great sadness, great and deep ... This time, even today, when I think I can almost feel it physically.
Again, I was empty to myself!
