My second baby J birth story 25 Aug

Week 28 5days. 6am: As usual I will normally wake up few times around midnight. Especially entering into 3rd trimester, i can only sleep on certain side with a bigger tummy. Little b prefer me to sleep on left side of my body. Around 6am, I can feel some liquid coming down under so I went ahead to toilet to check. Sure enough, the blood start to drip and slowly turn into heavier flow of bleeding. So wake my hubby up and told him to prepare to goto hospital. He just feel that it is unbelievable but to get up and getting ready. 7am: drop off Jevin to his grandparents house and write an email to Prof Han before we head over to hospital. 7.30am: When we checked into the hospital, I was brought to the observation room but immediately transfer to the delivery suite due to the soaked pad the nurse saw. 8am: the nurses did some routine blood check, poking of vein, putting on drips, etc, few doctors including a senior Dr Ann Wright came into check the ultrasound and heart beat of baby. In order for babies lung development, the nurse gave me an steroids injection. I promise that's the most painful injection I have ever had. I screamed and cried so hard because of the pain and worrisome. And need to take this medicine again in 12 hours time. 8.25am: another doctor came in telling me I need to take an ongoing medicine for baby's brain development. We went ahead with the longest drip in my life. In the beginning I feel some pain going on at my arms, eventually my whole body feels warm and has burning sensation. So looking at the clock ticking and thinking when is this medication going to end as I'm feeling so uncomfortable and burning already. 9+am: Eventually Prof Han came in and told me that baby heart beat doesn't look good and it's better to carry him out for better survival. Obviously both of my babies decided when they want to come out and come out fast everytime. Everyone is preparing for emergency caesarean including Prof Han after he agrees to help me with the emergency surgery. Everyone kinda feeling unexpected later I found out that he usually won't do this kind of surgery probably due to his seniority (he's too senior 🤷🤣) anyway I feel more relieved with him around. 9+ a handsome anesthetist, I think his name is Frank, explained to me the usual T&C and side effects of epidural before we proceed to the operating theater. 10am: they move me to the operating bed and ade preparation. We proceed with the epidural injection. I can feel the sharp pain at the back when he injects to my spine so I screamed la. 2 years ago I was on laughing gas before I get the epidural. So I went to another world before I can feel the pain of the injection haha. Then he proceeded w the cooling test with the ice pack. Within short period of time, I dunno when Han came in and started the knife test I guess. And I screamed and told them I can feel the knife cutting. The anesthetist who is inside and look like ah boys to men's actor botak officer, Justin Misson.obviously sounded lao jiao asked me "u know the difference between pain and pressing feelin?! " Duh... Obviously 🙄. So they went ahead increasing the dosage to make me feel better. Thereafter Frank keep talking to me and ask me how I feel and tell me what's going on now. I can feel han pushing and pressing my tummy. I can hear him talking to another doctor etc. He then carry the baby and check with me after his stiching. The whole process was quick. I just replied him I'm giddy. Then also tell Frank the same thing and Frank asked me to rest well with his soothing voice. And then I went to my lalaland as the medication kicks in. When I started to regain my consciousness, I started to feel worry again. I didn't hear my baby crying and I'm no longer pregnant at week 28 plus 5 days?! How's my baby with the baby doctor? (My baby will be transferred to ICU immediately after birth) is my baby ok now? I cried after having all these thoughts going through my mind. The nurse there passed me tissues and touched my head to console me. She wiped my tears and Frank also came to console me. Telling me that the baby will be in good hands of the baby doctor and ICU team. Although I was still crying but he still reassuring me that things will be ok. 10.16am the baby was born at 1.27kg and immediately send to the ICU to insert all the tubes and breathing material. The Dr later updated me that the whole placenta was separated from baby causing the blood to flow out of my body (bleeding) as baby could get the blood through the placenta. Luckily we rush down to the hospital as the baby's heartbeat is not doing well when we reach the hospital. The Dr was able to do operation in time to save the baby. I lost 800ml of blood and some water during operation.     The timing was blurred to me after that. I was pushed to the recovery room before we proceed to the ward. That's where I manage to say thank you to Frank after he has completed his handover procedure. I continued to cry but this time there's a nurse name Jaslin ask me to stop crying and eventually gave up and said : it's ok you continue to cry when u need anything you can call us 🙄😡. Funny thing is she's not the one who stayed in my room area but her colleague did it professionally throughout the entire process. Around 11 plus or 12 plus I was pushed to my ward alone. Obviously the baby is not with me at this time. We downgraded from class A1 single bedded ward to class b2 6 beded ward to prevent bill shock and save some cost. Since the baby might need to stay at least 4-7weeks in the ICU because ICU rate follow mummy's room rate. I think the range can be quite huge from 1k plus per night for class A vs 100 plus per night for class b2/c. We called the hubby to wait outside but he went to see the baby when we are outside. So I'm waiting for him in the ward until I buay tahan called him to come over. He's really waiting outside the operating theater dunno for how long. Anw I managed to finally use my phone around 2pm. Lol to be continued... Love
