Happy 5th Birthday to Mr K
Today is my son Mr K’s 5th birthday. Five years ago, I had a show on the afternoon of Wednesday 14th Nov, followed by a strong contraction just after midnight (into Thursday 15th Nov now). Being 40+ weeks pregnant, I was so ready to go into a labour. I had to get to the hospital to have antibiotics as I carried group B streptococcus. I still remember calling the hospital begging them to admit me. They refused and said come back when I had 10 minute contractions. It was another 18 hours before I had 10 minute contractions. We went into the hospital and had two course of antibiotic before I requested my midwife to have my water bag broken. The next 10 minutes was a blur. Suddenly, Mr K’s blood pressure and heart rate dropped. Emergency bells rang and suddenly approximately 10 medical professionals ran in. Within seconds, Mr K was born. There was a moment of silence followed by the most beautiful sound came. He cried! (Now, this is the most annoying sound from him!)
