Due Date Club February 2003:yet another birth story...:)
2003-03-12
Name: smitha



How r u all u guys...mommies and mommies to b doing? Its been indeed wonderful reading all those lovely messages and birth experiences...Finally feels good to b out of the expecting mode.... so thot of sending u an account of how everything went by...

I started having early signs of labor on the 14th of feb...(note it was Valentines' day..:P). Was asked to get admitted and from there on, the fetal heart rate was continously being monitored...it so happened that the heart rate went up at times which was a concern for the docs...I was given an induction medication at 10.30 pm and from about 1 am on 15th..i went into labor in the full swing...it was painful man...had close to 10 hrs of labour...I had opted for an epidural in the meantime...doc found that i was fully dilated by the time it was 9 am..but the irony was that my brat refused to come down...LOL. at the sametime the baby's heart rate further peaked up...Hence they thot it wasnt worthwhile taking a chance and opted for a c-section.

I was totally conscious during the surgery and to b honest i was relieved since i knew the end for all this pain was getting closer...Ritvik was born at 9.54 am. I just couldnt react when the doc showed me the little one...I remember tears trickle down my eyes...

Ritvik keeps us busy day and nite...life suddenly seems to b just consisting of nappy changes and feed times...LOL.

Hey vidya and shannu how r u guys doing...Why dont we sign up at feb baby club so that we cud continue to interact and discuss topics related to how r babies r doing and otherwise...

Hope all u guys r enjoying urself with the little one...Let the fun continue....
Do keep in touch folks

Lots of luv,
smitha
