It has been awhile that I have not written any post in this blog. I have always wanted to write as many post as I can but due to my hectic lifestyle I just could not make it. Moreover, I sometimes run out of words to say or just become lazy to scribble down.
Anyway, this blog is all about being a new mom. I know it's too late to post this but let me brush up my memory. he he he It was almost 1:00 am when I felt pain in my hips. I was being told that this was one of the common first signs of labor. So, I asked my husband that I wanted to go to the hospital since I was already one day late from my expected date of labor. We took a taxi and headed to the emergency section. They checked my condition and said it was not so close yet. They asked me to go back home but I declined because of the pain. Anything can happen unexpectedly so I thought it would be safe if I would just stay in the hospital.
I was praying hard that I may have a smooth natural labor. However, it didn't happen that way. Around 6am, I was rushed to the operating room. The doctor told me I needed a C-section which I didn't anticipated because I tried hard to go on a diet and exercise just to give birth naturally. But what can I say? Doctors are professionals. I should trust them.
Finally, I gave birth to a healthy baby boy. But he was very small. He weighed about 2300 grams. I should have pushed him out! I was a little bit depressed and disappointed because I hate C-section. It was painful and it will leave an ugly scar in my stomach. Unfortunately, I saw my baby for few seconds only in the operating room because I was dizzy and sleepy. When I heard his first cry, I was in the seventh heaven. I couldn't believe that I am officially a mother!
I was confined only for three days and went home with my LO. He was so tiny and cute. He looked alike his father. I always stared at him. I was very happy then. I know that I wouldn't be alone anymore whenever my husband goes out. I have a cute little angel that would eliminate my stress away.
Now, I understand how it feels to be a mom. And I am very grateful that God gave me this opportunity. I feel so complete now!
Thank you for reading!
