Hi mummies, I gave birth at 6.29pm to my baby girl, 3.4kg indeed as scanned last Thursday.
I saw @chweewy at observation ward but didn't talk cos I was so nervous! I believe chweewy too.
My induction was very draggy. Total 3 tablets, 11.45, 4.30am and 8am. First two was almost useless the contractions die off. Last one my gynae insert personally and almost immediately the cervix was in crazy pain! Could not walk at all and grabbing pillow. After 1.5h I was begging for epi. In 10min epi worked and it was shiok but I was tremoring cos of side effect. tremoring went off after some time and u could sleep through all the contractions. My dilation unfortunately was very slow... At 8am it was only 1cm, 12noon 3cm, 2.30pm still 3cm! Doctor say maybe have to c sect if still no progress. At 4.30pm it went to 7-8cm, 6pm fully dilated and started to prep for labour. I pushed 10 min and she's finally out.

Congrats StellaC! Good job for the hard work!
I paid 6.6k after medisave, incl. baby's charges.
Yea man now all the pain cOming. Uterus, stitches and also back...
Thanks!
The hospital recept kept trying to sell us the $1088 per night room. I didn't know they have sales target to meet haha
Really? My hubby done the registration so I didn't know if they promote other room type or not. I added hearing, metabolism tests etc for baby.
I only felt very sleepy after delivered, the pain killer worked well for me so didn't feel the pain at all.
Hello mummies, I am back to the forum!! Let me explain my whole labour process to everyone. On 3rd Sept at 8.30pm, I experienced some painful contraction. But I remembered StellaC was telling me about the false labour story. So I thought the pain will go away for a few hours. In fact it lasted until the next morning, 8.30am. (24 hrs, sleepless night) Strangely, there is no sign of mucus plug dropping off from my system or water bag burst. So I continued to stay at home until 10.30pm. (14 hrs, sleepless night) The pain become unbearable and decided to go to the hospital. The moment I saw my gynae, she gave me a dressing down for being so silly to bear the pain for so long. Immediately, she do a quick check up on me and realised that I am 1cm dilated. She put me in the labour room and waited for me to be dilated to 10 cm. After 10 hours of waiting time, I only dilated to 2 cm!!!!!! If I needed to be dilated to 10 cm, I probably will have to wait for another 8 days to reach 10 cm. of course, gynae put me on drip to induced the baby. The long hours of labour pain exhausted all my energy. I don't think I will survive through without epidural. So I decided to have epidural. It is a paradise. I slept through until I was dilated to 10cm. The nurse and gynae woke me up to start pushing the baby out. With 2 pushes, the baby came to this world. Mission accomplish. Oh man, I feel embarrassed to share this story to everyone. I don't think anyone has ever suffer labour pain for 42 hrs. My mum was amazed with my high degree of pain tolerance. Sigh. I failed to deliver the baby without epidural.....
Congrats, yiks! haha, I can related how you feel. I did the same thing as you.
Congrats, Yanting!!
