Birth story .. long post alert 🚨

On Friday dawn around 2:51am. I felt I was urinating on my bed . This time I couldn’t control wat was coming out unlike you can always control your urine. Luckily for me my mom has arrived Just on Thursday, so I woke mummy up to look at it . Immediately she said we have to go to the hospital.

The water never stopped.. I remember (Haj) talked abt that water sometime ago with her delivery. We arrived at the hospital by 4am n I was 3cm gone. Contractions were normal. @ 8am I was checked again n it was 4cm .. so I knew I was moving small small . Den from 4cm contractions kept going up saaa. It got them to check n surprisingly I have moved from the 4cm back to 3cm after a whole 4hurs (mercy🙏🏻)

My only hope at that moment was to look up unto the man up der . Meanwhile in all this the water that came out earlier was the one around the baby which makes the baby survive . Now there wasn’t any water n I wasn’t progressing as well . I was left in the position to do everything possible for myself n my baby to survive.  
Now at 2am on Saturday dawn I was checked again n now o have moved to 7cm

Here there was some kind of joy in my heart at least the pain was becoming worth it . At 6am I was checked again n now still 7cm . At this point dilation wasn’t going again . Now it means that I have laboured for 24 hours . It means that CS has to take place. At this point the only thing i could tell God is (in your hands on lord) . Remember I was still going thru contraction pains . By 7 :20 am from the way I was screaming in pain the midwife Just got me dressed n ready for theater . @ the theater in less than 8mins baby was brought out . The first qtn doc asked me is why did I allow all the water around baby to dry off and do I know I could have lose my baby .. I couldn’t say anything but said thank you Lord .

I held my baby wen I was brought from the theater tried raising her high n said ( ewurade maseda nie🙏🏻)
. Baby is well am Just being the one monitored because BP keeps going up . But I know that the lord has won victory for me .

I want to entreat us all that every birth story shared on this page has it on way of working thru our lives so we should read them well . Cos I remember one mummy said she was 10 cm but still ended with CS . At that point I was motivated . God works in many ways .
My current problem am facing is the emotional n psychological stress. But I know I will overcome with time .

I wish all mummies Good luck.
