39 weeks and 3 days, based on what the doctor said. Last night, til now, I am experiencing something that, well, a pregnancy woman-whose-due-date-is-ticking-by feels. However, my due date is still 5 days from now.
Hurt. I must say. From 9 PM til now. Alhamdulillah I have a midwife next to my parents house, so yeah, she said earlier this morning that the baby is getting to closer to the “mulut rahim”, but still bukaan 1 yang “dipaksakan” (HURTTT).
It will take around 24-48 hours ahead til the full opening, she said.
Just bukaan 1 and I can’t sleep all night long. So does my husband who looks so worried and he has to cancelled his duty trip to Semarang this morning. Maaf ya, Mas :”(
Ibu bidan bilang kalau masih ketawa-ketawa masih lama lahirannya (lama in this matter means hoursssss to go). Katanya kalau udah sakit banget udah nggak bisa ketawa. Wkwkwk.
Normal labor is that what I want, indeed. Even though, for now, I just want to pasrah lillahi ta’alla. Doakan ya.
Can you imagine me as a Mother? Well, I am quite afraid, furious, and lots of mixed feelings. Can I? Am I capable? This is a lifetime responsibility. I am still 24. Lots of things that I want to achieve. And baby get a long the way?
I constantly talk to my-son-to-be to pray for his parent-to-be, so we can take this amanah faithfully, thoroughly, and happily toward our baiti jannati’s dream insyaAllah.
ASI, MPASI, first teeth, first crawl, first walk, first this and that. Phew. Wish me luck, will you?
Lots of people said, “Jangan galak-galak, Fa.”
Hey, son, I might not be a perfect mother, but I am trying my best, you know that? Sorry for the MSG I keep on taking a few time during my pregnancy. Sorry for the emotional feelings. Thank you for surviving. Thank you for your kicking. With all the silliness and happiness, we are praying for you. Been a wonderful-39-week with all the perks and joyful experiences.
Show time, eh? Waiting for the collaboration, Nak. InsyaAllah, aamiin allahumma aamiin.
Love from your Mother and Father :)
