On September 10, 2008 at 10:13 in the morning, my wife gave birth to a healthy baby girl at the Royal Women’s Hospital in Melbourne, Australia which took her almost 24 hours of labor. She took a lot of painkillers during the labor due to excruciating pain… at first she took pethadine after a few hours the pain still unbearable so we opted to take epidural which is injected through her spine with chemicals/anaesthesia that made it numb from stomach to the feet. Around 6am, the doctor told us its already 10cm dilated so she will start pushing around 8am but after an hour and a half of pushing the baby won’t come out so we try another option by suction with the help of the doctor which was successfully done. Now i know how difficult it is to give birth to a baby coz i was there from start to finish… its not a picnic in the park but the severe pain and stress was much worth it after seeing the baby, very cute and healthy.
The sheer joy of having our own child was a gift from God which her name by the way is Gianne means God’s Gift from Heaven… Isn’t she cute? coz the babys parents are cute:) haha
