6:30am Dr Aldrin came and see me, explain my condition and treatment goal, we aim to deliver 24 hours later, hope there is no contraction and labour now. By delivering baby now is consider pre-term still, am in 35 weeks. Ultrasound scan the baby, the size is good and the amniotic fluid is sufficient, it's good for the baby stay in the womb now. There also may be situation that the water bag stop leaking by itself, but rare. So, I am gonna be mama earlier ;)
The midwives did a vaginal check on my dilation, not open yet. I hate this part, it's so painful and uncomfortable.
I was on drip, and given antibiotic; while the baby was given dexamethasone to cause an immature fetus's lung to produce a compound called surfactant. A full-term baby's lungs naturally produce surfactant, which lubricates the lining of the air sacs within the lungs. This allows the inner surfaces of the air sacs to slide against one another without sticking during breathing.
Premature infants whose lungs have begun producing surfactant are more able to breathe on their own, or with less respiratory treatment, after birth.
Admitted to hospital, i am still able to smile, not feeling any contraction yet
8:30am
The ultrasound scan shown there is some contraction, but i am feeling anything. That's how advance of technology nowadays.
this is the machine that detect baby heartbeat, my contraction, i think also include the amniotic fluid level
12:30pm Dr Aldrin came, a check on me, apparently i am fine. I still didn't feel any contraction yet.
i stay at this condition until the next day morning, lying on the bed and wait.
Sam went home around 6am , came back to hospital to visit me at around 5pm, stayed with me about 1 hour or so. Around 11pm, Sam got me some food then he went back to clean up the house.
Though he didn't spend much time with me in hospital, but he can't contribute much if he stayed.
