1. The week before.
Dra. Chona told me a week before that I was already 2-3cm dilated and can expect to give birth in a week or so. She actually gave me admitting orders already just in case! I was 36 weeks and a day by then.
She didn't advise naman that I take it easy. So I found myself working out and swimming pa that week.
(gym time the day before!)

I was ready with my bag when I saw Dra. Chona that Monday. The last pregnancy, she didn't let me go home anymore after one regular check up. So knowing Dra. Chona, I had a feeling she was going to ask me to be admitted after IE that day, and she did! She said I was 3-4cm dilated.
Hanley left work early and I was waiting for him at Bo's Coffee below the clinic. We went to the hospital across around 2pm. I was asked to go to the Labor Room, while Hanley waited somewhere. What I recall was being given Oxytocin around 4pm, experiencing minor manageable but regular contractions after that. Around 6:30pm I think Dra. Chona came in, broke my water. I remember experiencing stronger contractions until I was eventually wheeled into the delivery room.
Shoti Nolan came out a big bigger than Maddy, longer too, and apparently on a short coil! So his shoulder actually got stuck daw down there and they had to do a maneuver pushing him and his legs back in before pulling him out again.
3. So year, he came out...yet again with another baby..purple.
But people have been saying he looks more like me now! So yay!
