Counting down…
Tomorrow, a friend of mine will be admitted to induce labour. Her big day is here! Finally…
I pray that her labour will be short and simple (complication free) and I can’t wait to see her baby. We are seeing the same gynae and go to the same hospital.
Looking at my friend, I thot to myself that it may mean that I have another 6 weeks to go - I cannot wait! ~6 weeks seems so long~
Sometimes, I dream and wish that I would wake up one morning and it is time already! - I just cannot wait!
Labour pain!? Am I afraid of it? I guess I am not too worried about that now, I will deal with it when it comes. I told myself, long hours of pain (1-2 days) compared to months of sickness misery, they might just cancel each other out like a mathematic equation. I already come this far and deal with every blow of pregnancy sickness that came - I guess that already makes me tougher now. Whenever my gynae needs to inject me for blood or the small IV tiub need to be inserted into my vein, I do not really feel anything already, my heart did not even skip a beat, when the needle is poked into my flesh. Feels like some sort of "ilmu kebal" that I have mastered.
As long as baby is born healthy and I am out of this misery - I will be the happiest person alive. I just cannot wait!
But, wait I must!
Because I want baby to be born full term - healthy and no complications.
I am really counting down - never count down so seriously hard in my life before. I hope all is well worth it when the time comes.
Tears of joy and victory will fill our eyes as we celebrate our threesome.
i can imagine the count down, esp towards then end when we get so huge and heavy…u just wish u can deliver on the spot!!
all da best and no worries, pray hard, god will answer ur prayer
