Rae's Back!

Hahaha.. It's been awhile I have been posting up blog. Perhaps, it's the time and passion factor! I only blog when ever needed. I strongly needed it for now.


Now, am in semester 5 postings. Labour ward?? Tell me about it. Hahaha... it's the BEST EVER! seriously, honestly i indeed enjoyed my time. Despite starvation and thirst, i loved it. On the first day, 2pm sharp I reported myself to the Labour ward, there was a labour going on too. That was my very first Delivery experience. Initially, I don't know what to expect, I was kinda blur but excited too. I felt my peripherals were cold, heart palpitated really fast, legs are shaken by the chills in my body. I salutes these moms and including all moms in the world who gone through this stage of life, LABOUR ACTIVE PHASE!


Imagine you wake up in the morning at 4 am, felt strong contractions over your belly and guess what? ooopppsss.. I think my water broke. I think I am going to give birth. Actually that's just the beginning. Our impression, water broke means time of birth. However, there's still more to wait. Every mom with water broke, still have to wait for cervical dilation. And every centimetres takes about an hour. Total full dilation is 10 cm. So, perhaps 10 hours at least! If fortunate, might be earlier. If unfortunate, later then. :) Mom who thinks they gonna deliver wouldn't have appetite to eat neither to drink. Meanwhile, they also have to NPO ( nil per oral). That made them weaker and more lethargic. Every 10 mins, contractions maybe mild or severe for at least 2- 4 times. Once severe, it feels like your belly hardening and you'll feel like you're gonna have a bad bad constipation. (bearing down feeling) . 10 hours plus of waiting, 10 mins every contraction, mommy, you surely very tired right? That's so TRUE. During delivery, the head is the biggest circumference for expulsion. Moms need to really take deep breath, and push in one strength! One strength! And it's really tough. Once baby's head is out, no worries. It would be easier then. Some mom will just fall asleep or faint because of extreme fatigue.


Hey guys, this experience I shared it's not to scare your heart out but to share with you guys how important to treasure our moms. They may say it's painful, and it's seriously indeed painful from the back of the spine!! They resisted the pain for us to make sure we step into this world and to feel the world, to experience the colours of the world. Why women have to suffer so much? Man also have to suffer to earn the living! God has a planned for every man and woman. Instead of complaining of troubles and problems, learn to submit our difficulties unto Him. Only by faith through Lord Jesus Christ! When mom holds a baby, love starts overflowing and joy filled in the air. Just like how Jesus hold us, we are filled with the Holy Spirit in us and in the covering of God.


May the Lord continue bless those blessed moms and babies. You're indeed the child of God. Jesus is the same Today, Yesterday and Forever!


Rae smiling out!
