~The Birth Story~
finally, managed to find some time to update my birth story =)


7th Oct : Went for gynae appt..realised that i am 2cm dilated
Dr Adrain asked "r u all ready? so i see you @ TMC later..at 11pm"
Gosh, quickly went home shower & in about 2hours, Dar & I were @ TMC

11.30pm : Dr Adrain came & broke the water bag (not painful, jus felt a warm gush of water)

8th Oct
12.30am : felt contraction (tot it was still bearable, like menstral cramps..)

3.00am : still 2cm dilated..but the contractions start to intensify..
was kinda in 'distressed' & asked for epi

3.45am : Epi administered..& i fell asleep

5am : was abt 5cm dilated
(in between, poo-poo like 3x!! nurse said it was cos i was relaxed..thus kept
poo-pooing..mmm)

7am : fully dilated but bb still high up

8.05am : Dr Adrain came & told me to get ready to push..3x but no avail.. tried another 3x & finally BB Ashton cries was heard =0)
(playful boy had the umbillical cord round his neck twice !!)
when the nurse placed bb Ashton on my chest..i just smiled..
finally after 40weeks...everything was worth it !!

& now as bb Ashton is beginning to 'create his own lil milestones', Dar & i have decided to create a blog for him..so cheer him as he embark on his lil adventure c",)
