False Alarm

A week before my birth date, I’d bloody show in the wee hour. I woke my husband up and took a shower before going to hospital. Coincidentally, it was a public holiday and my sister-in-law was on holiday accompanying us to hospital. As there was no contraction pain, I still managed to have breakfast at Bangsar mamak restaurant before heading to hospital. It was extremely quiet early in the morning. When we arrived at Pantai hospital, we looked for emergency unit and none of the foreign workers able to tell us where it is. Apparently, most of the odd job at hospital are occupied by foreign workers.

Then, we went straight to labour ward where they monitored my baby’s heart beat and a nice nurse came around to check my cervix. L Bad news,….., cervix is still closed. My husband decided to go off to work and I stayed on to wait for doctor. Doctor finally came and confirmed the cervix is not opened and asked me if I wanted to induce or wait for another one week. I decided to wait after hearing so many horror stories about induction process.
