hapdet!

not yet frens... docCT has decided it's better for mummy and baby to NOT to induce today.... will wait until 5th April... if nothing happens in between, 5th April, i'll report straight to labour room... insyaAllah by then i'll be able to hold Jr. in my arms....

what happened actually???

my due date was 28th March.... besides mild contractions that i felt few days back... there is no indication at all that i'm going into labour any sooner... docCT said last week that i might be induced today (1st April)... after few findings... we're gonna wait....

8.30am - CTG (cardiotocography - the fetal heartbeat and the uterine contractions) for one hour at the Diagnostics Dpmt... i'm 'strapped' to the CTG machine and waited patient-ly for one hour... got the report after one-hour.. and brought it back to clinic...

9.45am - met docCT... did VE test... ouch... today, the 'new nurse' almost got kicked by me!!! eeee... i'm so pissed... when docCT is inserting half-way, usually i'll stop her hand if i felt a bit discomfort and she will let me take a few breaths and she'll proceed... and you know what.. all of a sudden, this nurse put her hands on both my knees and start to push them apart!!! like harlowwwwwwwwww.......... i raised my voice, "take your hands off my leg!!!" docCT quite surprised by the nurse's action and also my scream i guess.. haha... so she 'ordered' the nurse to back-off... go docCT! :) eeee..... you are a woman!!! you should know how uncomfortable it is for a woman to do such examination especially when u use 'force'... luckily she is intelligent enuff to apologize... so, i just said ok and pls don't ever do that again to other pregnant ladies... 

10.00am - The discussion. DocCT said... i barely has an opening... only tips of her finger. Even though she can feel the baby's head (i felt the touch too) but all surrounding muscles are still 'tough'... meaning naturally, my body is not giving any indication of giving birth... even the CTG shows no contractions within that one hour... and baby's heartbeat so strong as normal... so, she is not keen to induce me today... then.. quite a long pause... :) maybe she can see that i don't want to wait anymore... so she furthers her explanation... 


induce... in easy terms.. force labour.. by giving me drugs/ imitation hormones to progress labour... 1st - insert down there.. so it will dilates for readiness of the opening.. and 2nd - by drip... to progress contractions.. the thing is, she can't do the 1st step to me, as the medication somehow can trigger my asthma. She doesn't want to take that chance.. so what happens, she can only proceed with 2nd step... which is the 'force contractions'.. With the condition of my opening now (yang tak bukak2 tu),  contractions + no opening = longgggg labour!! mummy + baby = stress big time... and possibility of c-sect is very high... docCT stressed that, if possible, we want to avoid c-sect.... moreover, my baby's heart beat is very strong still + amniotic fluid is still ok = we can afford to wait a bit longer... :) mummy smiled at this time... in my mind... i've been waiting for the whole nine months... what more only few days... :) 

so... our new target date is 5th April!! 8am = labour room! this time.. confirm induce cos it will be exactly 1-week off the due date... docCT only comfy to wait extra 7 days... no more than that.... 

and people!! mummy has few more days to eat durian and ice-creams!!! ahahahhaha....
