The Birth of my Baby

When I heard my baby's first cry, I was swamped with overwhelming feelings, I started to cry silently with tears rolling incessantly from my eyes. My husband asked me if I was OK. I just nodded. I couldn't speak then, so overcome with my emotion at the time.

We asked them if they saved the cord blood, and they told us that it was done already, we just need to give it to the delivery man later.

It just took them less than 30 minutes to deliver my baby but it took them 2 hours more to finished everything. I heard them say, we'll irrigate her when they were almost finished. They told my husband he could watch our baby outside the nursery but he told them he will stay with his wife.

I didn't even have skin to skin contact with my baby because I couldn't move. She is tightly swaddled too. My husband talked to her while they finishing up.

But they made him leave and go ahead to the recovery room when they were about to remove the barrier that covered my lower body from our eyes.
