It was a same day for everyone else out there but a great day for me and my family. Early in the morning of Guruparb 2015, I saw everyone doing the same things as they do everyday. The milk man distributing milk, lady brooming the road, the birds flying high, transport on the road as usual but what was different? It was me who was different that morning because I knew by the end of the day I will be having my baby in my arms for which we have been waiting for.
Early in the morning we reached Gurudwara(Sikh Temple) to take Babaji's blessings and reached hospital. My husband was busy in completing all the formalities and I was lying down on the bed and was surrounded by multiple staff of the hospital. To be very frank I was scared to the core seeing those hospital equipments, nurses, syringes, blood pressure checker.
Finally after all the these(s) and those(s), I was shifted to the labour room all alone without my family. It was somehow getting scarier by the time. The doctor started at 10 am, hoping that I would get pains which are helpful in the delivery. In the meantime, I had my and my husband's parents out there. All waiting outside for the good news, but no progress was seen in my case. The lady next to my bed was all screaming because of pain and making me worried about myself as I had less pains even after induction. Then the doctor came and gave her final words to my husband that we have to proceed for the operation because I had no intense pains and opening.
I was crying by the fear of getting operated, until I reached The Operation Theatre. OT was well equipped, air conditioned, lighted room with around 8-10 people including males also, which was making me more uncomfortable.
The countdown was on, I checked in to OT, anaesthetist was there ready with the injection. Just after 10 mins I could hear the first voice of my baby, I asked the doctor, "kya hua hai doctor". Doctor said, "boy hai shivani". I was on cloud nine when one of the male helper got my baby and let our foreheads touched. I was in tears of happiness. That was the moment I forgot everything i faced during the day, during my pregnancy. all i remembered was my baby's touch.
Doctors finished all the procedures and after 5 hours got to see my baby.
The phase has changed. My time of getting pampered has gone, now I have my baby to get all the pampering and attention. Now I got to know how beautiful is to being a mother, my baby is enlightening my world since 6 months.
Do comment below to know about my baby, my experiences of pregnancy and anything you want me to write about.
Lots of love from
Shivani
