Yes is abit out dated. I m trying to lcatch up with some of the post here. Anyway here are my birth story.

04 June

3am - can't get into deep sleep. frequent toilet visit and was having mild contraction the whole nite

6am - hubby woke up and tell him that i m having contraction. started to time and was 5-7 mins interval.

7am - hubby need to go back office even though is his off day. told him it might be real contraction cause the feeling is almost the same as i had 2yrs ago. he ask me to monitor and anything contact him immediately.

8am - contraction still at 5-7 mins interval. pain are bearable.

8.45am - had my breakfast and bath just in case i might go into labour anytime.

9am - ask my sis to accompany me to the doctor. I called the clinic on the cab to inform them about my condition. Last checkup was on Monday. On ctg but no contraction at that time. Dr Wong didnt check dilation also.

9.15am - Dr Wong not around and ctg room was occupied. I waited at the clinic for 15mins. Until the nurse came and touched my tummy. She commented that my tummy is very tight ask me to go labour ward directly.

9.30am - went down to labour ward. was put on ctg. contraction was regular and did VE. I was surprise when the nurse said i am 3cm dilated. My sister have to wait for me at the visitor area. My bag and hp are with her. So called her in and sms to my hubby.

9.45am - Change into the hospital gown and clear bowel. Thereafter was directed to the labour ward. Kind of nervous cause don't know if hubby can make it on time. He has to rush back home to take my hospital bag.

10am - lying on the bed and wait for hubby to come. was talking to a few nurses.

11am - Dr Wong came in and break my waterbag. I was only 4cm dilated. I asked her roughly take how long to dilate fully. She replied if fast will be an hour time.

11.15am - Hubby came. Contraction still bearable but is getting more intense.

11.50am - Cannot tahan anymore and ask for laughing gas. Ask the nurses to check and was alrdy 7cm.

12.10pm - Nurses use her finger to soften the cervix so that it will dilate faster. I was having the urge to push but afraid of tear. When she say 9cm dilated.

12.20pm - Gynae came, about 2 pushes bb is out.
