As mention in my previous blogpost... at week 35, I experience pre-term labour. My gynae decided to stop my contractions and given me jabs to mature baby's lung.
Things were good and I pass week 35 & 36 without much "drama" and enjoyed my CNY feasting.
4th Feb 2014 - Visit Dr Tseng
Visited Dr Tseng during my week 37 appointment and prior to that, the night before, I experience some contractions but i decided not to call him since the next day, I will be seeing him.. As usual, strap on the CTG monior on me... and he check my dilation.
Dr Tseng announced that I'm already to deliver... the NEXT DAY (5 Feb 2014)!!!! MY EDD is 23 Feb.. Wasn't really ready to deliver my baby that soon... but since God has decided that it's time for her to arrive, we will just take it as it is.
Because it's such a sudden announcement, (I have a gut feeling that I might deliver early but I always thought that it will be around Valentine's Day week) So I didn't even have the time to remove my gelish manicure, do my b-wax and remove my eyelashes.
And the worst thing that is, it's only the 5th day of CNY. Not many shops are fully open yet, Browhas & Strip were fully booked, no way to slot me in for my eyelash removal and B-wax. So I called all random beauty house and salon that does waxing.
Luckily this kind lady advised me, not to do B-wax as I am going to deliver soon. In case of allergy reaction.. so I shaved. It's a tough job to shave ur vajayjay with a huge belly but I did my best.
The day went pass and no contractions, I did all my prep work for the next day..
The night came, hubby return home from work. We both are very anxious cause we are going to admit to Gleneagles the next morning @ 7am.
5th Feb 2014 - Getting Ready for Baby Danielle
Went I'm about to hit the sack, I have the urge to pee.... while peeing, I heard a loud "POP". It's like my baby did a super big stretch inside.... and my water bag broke... I'm leaking water everywhere.
Told my hubby that my water bag break, contact Dr Tseng and informed him and we made our way to hospital. At that time it's only 1.30am and I should have listen to Dr Tseng when he asked me to shower and slowly make my way to GlenE...
Imagine my dishavle look when I was in labour and the aftermath of labour... I look horrible.

| Off I went to the labour ward |
After the epidural, both hub and I managed to catch some sleep as I won't be able to experience the contractions pains.
But I felt the common side effects of epidural, shivering and pins and needles on my legs.
Poor hubby.... didn't have much rest. Imagine he was still sleeping when the staff nurse came in to check on me and said that I'm 9cm dilated and I can start to push my baby out.
When he heard that I can start to pushing, he quickly freshen up and help me with my labour...
It's isn't very tough but it's damn exhausting..
Dr Tseng came in around to help me with my labour and shortly after... my pretty little baby is born.
