the big day

18 may 2009

10am
bleeding. packed and ready to go to Delgado hospital

1pm
at Dra. Lillian De Vera's clinic
3cm and she asked me to go to the labor room right away but I asked if i could eat first coz i'm hungry.
she said NO solid food but you can drink juice.
so raoul and i went to mcdonald's (the nearest in the area).
he ordered his burger and nuggets and pineapple juice for me.
i am so hungry i ate two of his nuggets :D

2pm
at labor room
the usual prep: bp, shaving, washing, enema and the questionnaire.
they found out i ate nuggets and told my ob about it. my ob was mad :D
i'm still so hungry. even the other moms-to-be beside me are all hungry
and the worst part of it was the nurses are talking about what to order on KFC delivery.
how rude! they didn't even asked us what we want to order! amp!
every hour they do the IE on me. and it hurts everytime!

5pm
still in labor room
im having strong contractions and i am actually crying from pain but didn't complain.
one of the nurses saw me crying and gave me the pain killer right away.
they also gave me (i forgot the name) to induce my labor.
another IE and this was the most painful one.
they broke my water bag and then the very strong contractions.
it was so painful, i was sobbing all the time.
the pain killer started to take effect and i was groggy and i think i fell asleep.
the next thing i knew, i am in the delivery room and the nurses and doctors are screaming and telling me to push.
and so i pushed.

11:08pm
AQUILA NABONG IS BORN.

there are some slight complications. as you can see in this picture, Doc is explaining to raoul what had happened.
first, during my labor, baby is having a problem with his heartbeat
that is why they asked me to lie down in a certain position.
second, after the baby came out, he did not cry.
no problem with his breathing or heartbeat, he just did not cry.
