We're glad to be back home from the hospital. It was around 6pm on October 30 when I started feeling contractions. I have worked hard over the past few weeks to get things ready before delivering our baby. I must say, I still have a lot of work left undone until these contractions began. At first, I really wasn't sure if these contractions would continue. Upon monitoring, each contraction was at a 25-minute interval. I consulted my doctor, who advised us to go to the hospital. In the back of my mind, I felt unprepared to give birth, worrying about the tasks I should have completed. Pakner4lyf had many scheduled appointments the next day and had to cancel them all because he needed to take me to the hospital. It took us a long time to leave for the hospital. My husband needed to stop by the supermarket first, and from there, unexpected incidents caused further delays. Meanwhile, I continued to monitor each contraction I was experiencing.
My husband finally arrived, and he immediately pulled out the groceries he bought for our bakeshop. Then he loaded the things I needed to bring to the hospital, and off we went. We were fortunate not to encounter heavy traffic on the road. When we arrived, I was about 2 - 3 cm dilated and was having contractions at 10-minute intervals.
