My C-section story.

"Wait! What? You had a C-section? Doesn't seem like."

.

This is a common reaction when I first tell someone I had cesarean delivery. Until then, I never knew there's a difference to seem like someone with cesarean delivery and one with normal delivery. It was quite late that I realized people assumed you should look someone with a giggly belly when you have a C-section. Because it isn't "normal." Because it is against nature. But what people fail to realize that if done correctly, C-sections help reduce infant and maternal mortality rates during childbirth.

I had the best pregnancy anyone could dream about.

Morning sickness- nope

Nausea- nope

Gestational diabetes- nope

Pre-eclampsia- nope

Pain- nope

Pica- nope

Cravings- nope

Mood swings- nope

I worked until the last day of my delivery, commuting to work every single day.

Then why did I undergo a C-section?

.

Because until the very end I had no labor pains.

.

My gynecologist, who is also my aunt had checked a day before and told that I should expect labor pains anytime in the next 12 hours. But I had zero pain anywhere in the tummy. The next day I called her up and told that I don't have any pain. She called me directly to the hospital. She checked for fetal heartbeats. She looked at me and said, "the baby's heart rate is dropping, we don't have enough time to induce labor. We need a C-section. Are you willing?" I trusted my aunt and nodded. I walked to the operation theater blowing kisses to my husband. I could see he was quite tensed and I wanted to lighten the mood. Within an hour of me entering the OT, my aunt walked out proudly holding a small Bonny boy and telling my husband, "Congratulate me. I'm a proud granny now"

.

That day C-section helped my baby.
