All that Normal is not so normal
Baby Girl. Congrats
No worries, it's a normal delivery
Nurse opened the labour room door and said
Rahul, his mom, her parents all are happy and excited. The cute little pie is in his arms now. Rahul got thrilled and planted a kiss on Pooja's forehead.
She winked and smiled at her husband with a proud feeling.
Came out of the room, relatives shared the news "Yes baby girl and normal delivery"
After the 9 months of the carriage, all mid-day vomiting and sleepless nights, Pooja is smiling! The most beautiful feeling in the world- Being a mother, enjoying motherhood.
The pain started 2 days before and pooja was hospitalised. Well, who knows is it a labour pain or just a dose of pain?
Doctor, look I'm getting a pain. said Pooja
No dear, it's not the pain, you won't be even able to tell like this if it's a real labour pain. Doctor said
Ohkay, so something big is on the way. Pooja thought and laid to her bed
After a few hours, the doctor came and said: Let me check whether the baby is in a good position
OUUCHHHHHHH! She screamed aloud
what are you doing?
Inducing medicine to increase the size of your cervix! The doctor said while inserting 3 fingers to her vagina.
Hours passed, 1 day down
The so-called "Labour Pain" has not yet reached, though she is experiencing a very good amount of pain where she is not able to stand, sit not even eat.
Day 2 Morning, she opened her eyes and touched her stomach. Maybe today I could see my baby's face! Oh dea come soon, your mama is waiting. A nurse came and repeated the above said cervix size increasing procedure for many more times. She cried, screamed yet controlled all her worries. Meanwhile, they induced a few more medicines to increase the pain and break the fluid also.
Hours passed, by evening she started experiencing the labour pain. The famous filmy dialogues "Push Pooja, Push" started echoing in her ears
Yes, even we do know only this "PUSH dialogue" in related with delivery scenes!
Took all her energy, oh remember she has not eaten anything from the last day, pushed maximum. Meanwhile this push mechanism, Doctor cut her vagina wall, she didn't even know that until post delivery treatment. We can't blame her, who will be noticing this cut while she is experiencing the labour pain.
One last push and yeah! Our heroine is into this world!
Pooja cried with happiness and pain at the same time and her baby, the munchkin is here finally.
The so-called "NORMAL" delivery is not so that Normal. She thought in her mind.
Little princess came for breastfeeding. She took her close to her chest, kissed and prayed
Dear,
May your day start with a smile and good vibes, May your journey on the way to the school be without any safety pins in hands and pepper spray on bags, May you apply for a leave for your menstrual cramps, May you don't be a selling item in the dowry market,May your character doesn't get judged based on your short sleeves and high heels, May you get married only when you needed and only to the person whom you love,May you get your job without discriminating based on your sex
And above all may you live for you and not for the society
Took a deep breath, she again winked and smiled at her husband.
And that smile requires a lot of courage that even 1 million of men could not make.
