Checkup in week 35
Found out the baby is in abnormal positioning; complete breech. A bit shocked but they said nothing to worry because it's still early, means the baby still have time to turn. I was relief.
Unfortunately it continues until week 38. Makes me wonder, kenapa baby tak in position lagi? Asked the doctors but no satisfying answer. I redha and stop questioning. So masa ni doc made a letter and refer my case to the hospital. I chose Hospital Serdang without hesitation. Hahah sebab dulu Jasmine dok wad lama kt sana, so rasa cambest je. 😬😬 Huhu berangan nak repeat Annur tapi kalau dh cenggini, lupakan! 😅
First appointment in Hospital Serdang.
Week 38
I had a new appointment on the next day. The baby still breech and they offered me to do version. After many thoughts, I was not keen to proceed. Don't judge. 😛 I just felt like this is fate. I put my effort much as I could but still, it was a big argument. I was happy with my choice and I still am.
I was scheduled for c-section on Sept 2nd (week 39) but need to be there on August 31st, 8 am sebab kena buat Covid-19 screening. 😩

Week 39
Admitted to PAC, Hospital Serdang.
As usual, register, check bp, check baby heartbeat. All readings kelaut sebab neves kemain. Haha pastu I haven't took any breakfast yet that day, tu yang baby pun syok tido. Doc pun syok la do ve nak 'kejut' baby. Bertuah sangat! 😏😏
Still menunggu turn dapat katil, so in the mean time lepak la mana2 sofa to comfort yourselves. It was okay, the food and all, nothing to complain. Sempat la lelap kejap. 😬 Lepas Asar baru dapat. Okeh settled.
1st September 2020
3-4 am
Mula rasa perut mengeras regularly in 10-15 min. Eh macam kes Jasmine je ni tapi takpelah rilek dulu. At the same time dah mula ada show. Risau plak sebab dulu Jasmine takde show. So masa nurse datang check bp & ctg, told them my situation. Dah ada instinct, emergency jugak aku hari ni but they said it's normal even derang dah detect ada contraction. 🤦🏻♀️
P/s: Dilation pagi semalam 2 cm. Dalam rekod, declare no contraction sebab I was not in pain. 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
8 am
Told doc pelatih yang datang check, dia tak boleh decide. Tunggu doc pakar datang katanya. So around 10 am, pakar and bos dia datang sekali dengan nurse nak check ctg. Reading memang dah regular, doc check dah dilate 3 cm, cumanya I don't feel the pain yet. Pakar terus decide emergency case because I was in labor. Nasib la pagi tu breakfast sket je, boleh proceed masuk ot, standby at 2pm. I was asking kalau proceed normal birth tak boleh ke? They said kita tak buat normal birth for breech baby here. 🤷🏻♀️
Emergency LSCS & It's not the end of the world 😌
2.30 pm
Get ready and I'm ready. 💪🏻💪🏻 First time oi nak belah perut. Kali ni baby memang menguji. 😌
The baby was safely out at 3.19 pm but I was having a heart complication. 🤦🏻♀️ Did ecg and rhythm tak cantik. Ahh sudah. Kalau tengok simptom, I was like physically all good. Kena pulak monitor kat situ sampai 6.30 pm. Kepala tingtong, effect lepas operation kot. Dah keluar ot nak hantar wad, aku muntah atas katil. Due to that complication, kena monitor tahan dalam labor room pulak, sebab nak buat ecg. Cant even drink sebab muntah2 and kepala pening teruk. Tido ajer. 😷 Baby nurse jaga dalam wad. So rest la kat situ.

Baru dapat pegang baby. Kepala tingtong lagi ni but still kena bf sebab lama tinggal baby kan? Pastu dah melambak lagi muntah atas katil wad. I was starving since last I remember makan half bun at 10 pm (31hb) macam tu. 😅
8 am
Pakar datang check, baby okeh takde masalah boleh discharge tp mak plak yang masalah, kena check jantung and buat scan kot la ada bengkak or anything wrong. Book appointment today tapi punyalah long que, plus I was in semi-urgent case, 2 hari kau kena tahan tak boleh balik lagi. Mak iz stress here.

9 am
Finally went to the Unit Kardiologi nak scan jantung. Memang ramai sangat orang (read:tua). Masa scan, Alhamdulillah takdak apa pun. All is well. Hahah macam-macam hal la. At first aku dah give up nak skip je scan tu since derang pun notice I look normal but they refused sebab takut aku anytime boleh collapse. So derang taknak take the risk la. Since aku pun memang dah kat sini, proceed jelah kata doc. Betul jugek. 😞 Result pun cantik, baru la doc release.
