Labour Room Drama 109

Sometimes the things that happen in the labour room will leave you asking why like i just did down there....



Hello Stella kudos for the great work.
Anyway labour for me was not so bad. I was induced at 39 weeks as my genealogist was quite liberal with me.

Got to the hospital around 1pm.After settling in the delivery room, i had something inserted inside my vee. I guess it was to open my cervix as i was just 1cm dilated. My sister was with me all through as hubby was in Nigeria. So she kept checking the babys heart rate for me and cheering me up.

I had so much to eat at the hospital even though i had heard about women not eating when they are almost having a baby. Well the nurses kept telling my gynea said i could eat whatever. So i ate through out .

So at about 12midnight, i slept for a while and i woke up shivering. The next thing the Anesthesiologist came in to administer my epidural. See me shivering, i was terrified at some point i held on to the nurse so tight. 

The Anesthesiologist just said to me ''woman please comport your self because you move, you paralyse" in her mexican accent. I was scared because i didnt want anything to happen. Guess what? I had no clue when she give it to me cause i felt nothing.

I began to dilate faster and faster but at some point i began to feel pains around my abdomen. I thought i had been duped as i kept muttering to my sister '' this epidural thing isnt working mehn'' even though i couldnt feel my legs. So one of the nurses inserted pain killer in my drip. I know she administered it twice or so.

 I kept breathing in n out. I guess i got used to the pain killers but i was refused as soon as i was fully dilated. The silly nurse didnt even have the nerve to tell me. she just told my sister the baby was coming but they both kept playing me. Shortly after my water broke.

When it was time to push i became so thirsty. My legs were wide open with my male gynae in front of me. In my mind i was like see how this one just they look person yansh any how. So i was given ice cubes to chew instead. I remember spitting on the doctors face and he just wiped it with tissue and he kept telling me to push. 

Then this fowl smell took the whole room.i pooped like a baby and my sis had this funny look on her face like ewww. But i didnt know when the poo came out cause i had epidural. My sister kept shouting puuuuuuuusssssshhhhhh, push this baby out mehn and the doc was like 'thats the spirit thats what i'm talking about'. i was like what is wrong with these ones now?. After about three pushes my son was born at 3:59 am. He weighed 6pounds 9ounces. He was as white as a snow man.

My sister was ecstatic but i was just so glad the drama was over. I didnt cry o i was just looking at my son like a stranger cause it all happened so fast and it was all  surreal. I never got to see him again till the next morning as i was moved to the recovery room. I bonded with him as soon as he was brought to me in the morning. I was so happy to hold him properly for the first time.

My son is 2 years old now and he's my world, my everything. Post partum was awesome. My stomach went down drastically as soon as he was born. In 2 weeks my body was fully back. Motherhood is amazing.


*Wow you spit on the Doctors face? Did he do anything?Because if you were not feeling any pains or shouting and crying then i wonder why you did that.na wah....i sure say you for slap your hubby if he was there..lol

    1. As at 2013.. epidural in a good hospital I know was 50k, I guess it would have remained the same or slightly higher if not for the current state of affairs in the country.
      I don't know how much it is now.. but I don't think there will be a 💯% increment.

    2. It's also expensive abroad. So your basis for comparison is....bleh!' If u have money u can do it anywhere. If u are poor in Nigeria, u would def be poor abroad.So sharrap!

  17. You spat on a doctor doing all he can for you to deliver safely and you are proudly saying it? Evil woman!na you first start to born? Onye iberibe

  18. That's so gross! Why did you spit on the doctor's face? Meanwhile, thank God for safe delivery anyway.
    By the way,a friend told me she lost her sister in law while she was giving birth (her third child for that matter) and I just keep thanking God for the safe deliveries I read here everyday. It's a pity though. May God deliver us all.

  19. I also did epidural sept 2015 in Nigeria, delta state and was 150k.

  20. Hello stella, i didnt spit in his face intentionally. Remember i said i was given ice and i was breathing in and out at the same tyme hence the reason why i spat in his face. For those asking epidural for me did the magic and i would take it over and over again.the only after pain was when my tear was healing which is quite normal.

  21. And she didn't spit saliva. The is she was eating flew out while breathing in and out
