Proudly wearing the c section scar
.
.
It wasn’t a planned one nor did I have any complications during pregnancy.I wasn’t ready to go under the knife..who’d like to? To be honest I haven’t ever watched any c section delivery videos during my pregnancy unlike I did for vaginal birth.I had a very smooth going pregnancy with just morning sickness,one or two vomitings and feeling extremely hot all the time(which is all normal for a pregnant woman to go through this). Yet I had a c section..why you must be pondering?
.

As I mentioned earlier in my birth story..I was induced thrice and when my water broke, doctor found blood clots to be a complication.Nobody gave us time to think and take the decision..I was quickly shifted to OT from Labour room. When I stepped in,I just recited prayers and laid back on the stretcher saying ‘I want the baby to be healthy and fine..’ I knew what a c section body would be..I have had read about it. I knew everything.I wanted the baby but not this way..I cried.

During the operation, I was given two injections on my shoulders to make me more unconscious. I heard the cry of Simra after 6-7 minutes I saw her in the hands of my doc. I saw them stitching me..yes I did when one of the eye pad flew. The operation got over, I was put on another stretcher and bought to ICU. I saw my daughter again..and she was taken away after a few minutes.I tremble more as I pen this down now, as soon as the numbness in my lower body went away..it was horrific, the pain..the pain was unimaginable.

A small cut on our hand leaves us crazy..imagine your layers of body being cut and stitched. The night went away in groans and more groans..the very next morning when nurses made me sit. I almost got dizzy seeing myself in pool of blood. It was blood all over the bed. They cleaned everything and took me to my room downstairs where my daughter was waiting for me.
.

Yes I forgot my pain seeing her..but would never forget what I went through to bring her to life. C section moms are often taken for granted..c section mom or vaginal birth giving mom..all endure pain to bring little ones to life.

Never have I ever imagined that a normal pregnancy like mine would end up into a scary c section tale.
