Big day

The wait was finally over! Gave birth to a healthy baby boy last May 4th. Like any normal deliveries, it wasn't a walk in the park. Though many think that the 2nd or 3rd childbirth doesn't hurt as much as the 1st one, not in my case. My pain tolerance is very low and so the pain is still like the 1st time. I got admitted to the hospital May 3rd at around 3pm, I was already at 2cm. They gave me 10 buscopan tablets to take every hour. May 4th came and I was still at 2-3cm. My doctor decided to put dextrose so they could administer the drugs through IV para mas mabilis. By 2 p.m. I started having constant contractions. The type of contractions na mapapamura ka sa sakit! Ang nakakainis pa, i HAD TO walk, walk and walk kahit namimilipit na ko sa sakit. Then at 6pm my doctor arrived to check on me. I was still at 5 cm, so 5 cm more to go. Buti na lang my OB knows me well, so kahit na 5 cm pa lang they wheeled me in the delivery room. After an hour of excruciating pain, i survived and gave birth to Ethan Marcus "boya" Cordero- Serrano.
