21 Sept 2015 at past 12 am, I was awakened by a jolt in my tummy. My queasiness woke my SO and he asked me if it was time but I dismissed it with,
"di pa, sa 25 pa ko dba."
As with my previous Caesarian deliveries, I have a schedule and it was always followed. It has been ages so I am having doubts but still I closely monitored each kick and in between sleeps, I was keeping tab of the intervals and length.
What seemed like forever, I got up and that's when I found myself gingerly moving in our house. I was initially questioning myself whether this is the real labor as I never had one, lucky me. I even re checked my bags and placed them on the hallway. I even wrote instructions for my kids should there be a need for me to be rushed to the hospital. It was Monday.
I knew well now is the time when my water bag broke and fear has enveloped me. Again, I was unsure if this is the real thing as with my previous scheduled CS, I may have been under medications to notice my water bag burst. I was still so composed (thanks to my high tolerance in pain) that I even googled what it was like and how long should I keep the baby after my water bag broke. (Like it was my first time, right). Every time I'd feel the contraction, I'd push. It pacified the pain.
