How many moms do you know? And what kind of moms are they?
I just figured out I should write about moms, since I am already a mom, I have my own experiences to share being a mom.
I had my first born child, (Brien Ken D. Ugaddan) when I was 20 years old.
Of course, being a young mom, I had to experience everything first hand. I felt confident about having my own child but kind of scared at the same time. I have a little knowledge about babysitting because I’m the eldest daughter, but I guess it’s really different because it’s my own child now.
But since, I was a product of a broken family; I swore I’d do everything to have a happy and complete family for my own baby. And I won’t let the things that happened to me happen to him.
Just to share my experience giving birth, I think most of the women who are pregnant would know that they will be giving birth because of their water bag breaking. But mine was different; it was month of December 2008, after dancing and partying because of Christmas celebration. I didn’t get enough sleep because of frequent urination. Good thing I have a scheduled check up with my Ob-gyne the next day.
So the next day, I visited my doctor and she confirmed that my water bag was already leaking but did not break. She instructed me to proceed to the hospital where I should be giving birth because I need to be admitted so that they can monitor the heartbeat of the baby. Because she said that I could be giving birth anytime soon.
Good thing my in-laws prepared the things I need to bring and I just needed to tell my mom to get ready. I called my mom in panic, and cried in excitement. By the time my mom arrived at our place I was ready and waiting at our garage. My mom carried all my things to the car and we drove off to the hospital. After my in-laws settled everything with regards to our finances, I was admitted already.
From 3pm that afternoon, I was experiencing labor pain, frequent contractions… it was indeed very painful when you experienced labor pains. But then, my mother in-law paid for my delivery to be painless, after the tiring labor pains, last thing I remembered was being moved from the labor room to the delivery room. I remember shouting as they said “PUSH”…. and passed out.
Next thing I remembered, my husband was there beside me and my mom. They both said my first born was healthy and very handsome, they said he looks like his dad.
Since everything was ok they allowed us to go home the following day. When they allowed me to see him, and hold him on our way home, I felt so excited… He was so little, he looks fragile and at the same time I felt I was stronger, more inspired and more mature person. I needed to be because I have him to worry about now. It was the most wonderful feeling in this world….
