Thanks mummies!
My birth Story
Had brown show on 10/9 .. Went in but no contractions So was discharge fed. 11/9 - bloody show and happen to have Gynae appt so went to see her as per normal n 1cm dilated. She ask me to be warded also coz my water was low already. So went to labour ward at 12noon to start being induced! Man all the poking really hurts plus the drips. So I was oxytocin n mummies.. Like what my friend advise.. Take epi coz that makes contractions regular n more painful. But after like 3 hours.. Still 1cm dilated. N I didn't take any pain relief till 3cm. Gynae came at 5pm to break water bag.. N it started feeling weird n even more painful the contractions. That was when I had epi. Mummies, the number of contractions u have is not equal to how much we dilate and I was stuck at 3cm for hours!!!!
Hence labour ward 12 and delivery 5! Just like another mummy. Sorry cant rem.
another word of advice.. Don't lower epi dosage coz when increase again, it made me shiver so badly but maybe coz I was like 8cm n counting dilated.

How are all mummies doing? 
feel so relieved with CL at home I can sleep and rest only to wake up when baby wanna suckle or carry her when she cries. But sometimes just cannot resist popping over to look at the angel sleeping. Bearing the heat and perspiration, today is day 4 no shower. Always thought I will break all confinement rules but somehow still manage to endure, afraid that all the side effects will come.
Cant wait for baby to grow up and call me mummy but also love the way she is so newbornish and tiny in my arms.

My mother in law is currently staying with us. She wakes up at 5am every morning. Hence she is bored. So she will enter my room without knocking on my door and carry my baby away. I ordered confinement food from a company so that she don't need to especially cook for me. In the end, she lazy to cook. All she did is to cook one veggie with my confinement food and shared among with my husband, my mother in law and me. That night, I was so upset that I blew my top by throwing my chopstick. I went back to my room without dinner.
