Sharing Love: Winning Without Love
37 Weeks
It does not feel the age of pregnancy Khaira has entered the age of 37 Weeks, it means that soon both will officially become parents and Baby A will soon be born into the world.
This afternoon after Radit returned home from work, the two visited the Mother and Child Hospital to double check the baby's womb and position. If possible Khaira chose to give birth normally. Even though her husband doesn't bother her. To be normal and Caesar, to Radit his wife is a great mother. Mother who has given herself voluntarily to conceive, give birth, and later raise her child.
After waiting for the queue and examination of weight and blood pressure, now Radit and Khaira again see Doctor Indri, the Doctor they trusted since the selection of contraception to conceive, now Radit and Khaira again see Dr. Indri, to give birth later both also want to be handled directly by their doctor of trust.
"Good afternoon Mrs Khaira and Mrs. How healthy is Mom?" doctor Indri greeting them both.
"Alhamdulillah good Doctor. We are also healthy." replied Radit and Khaira in unison.
"We do the USG check first, ma'am, so we can see the position of the baby" said Dr. Indri and invited Khaira to go up to the gurney and check using USG.
As usual, USG Gell was applied to Khaira's stomach. Then, the USG tool began to be moved. "Welcome to pregnancy at 37/38 weeks. The weight of the baby is about 2.9 kilograms. While there are still approximately 2 weeks, so the possibility at birth can be 3 kilograms of baby later. If you feel hungry, you can eat small portions, but more often it's okay Mom."
Radit and Khaira listened to Indri's explanation very seriously.
"How's the baby doing Doc? I actually want to give birth normally later, Doc. Are the criteria for giving birth normally fulfilled, Doc?" ask Khaira to Doctor Indri who is still moving the ultrasound device on his stomach.
"Baby is a normal weight, ma'am. There is no winding as well, on the screen can be seen if there is no winding in the baby's body, then the position of the head is also below. It's starting to get into the pelvis. The location of the placenta also does not block the birth canal. So, in my opinion can give birth normally, ma'am" said Dr. Indri.
Khaira seemed relieved to know the position of her baby whose weight is normal in the sense that it is not too big, there is no winding, and now it has entered the pelvis.
After the examination with the USG tool, the two now continue the consultation session with the Doctor.
"Because the baby's head has entered the pelvis, increase the walk Bu. Drinking enough water or drinking coconut water is also allowed. Having a husband and wife relationship can be as long as it does not press the stomach. So the HPL can later go forward or backward, Mom. Mother should be more sensitive, if the stomach is tight but after a long time the pain does not come again it is just a false contraction. Meanwhile, if the pain comes more routine and the pain increases, it means that the time of delivery is coming soon. As the contractions increase, you can go straight to the Hospital. I'll help Mom give birth later. Usually can wait up to 12 hours, but if not add opening then we can do Induction yes Ma'am."
The explanation of Indri Doctor which is very detailed makes Khaira so satisfied with the consultation obtained. Moreover, he was still very layman, so knowledge like this was very useful for him.
"Oh, yes Ma'am. Start preparing a bag that contains the needs of the baby and the mother as well. If at any time the contraction comes, just lift the bag. Because the state of panic and still have to prepare the bag precisely the result is chaotic. So it is better to be prepared from now on. While waiting for the birth period can be prepared bags for Mother and baby. Can make any checklist needed." additional from Doctor Indri. "Is there anything you want to ask?"
Indri doctors also understand it is not easy for mothers who will give birth to children for the first time. It is true, every woman who is going to give birth needs physical and mental preparation.
"It's okay Mom. All women who are about to give birth will definitely feel all that. However, yes what I say is true, inevitably must be faced. You are also prepared physically and mentally to accompany Ms. Khaira later. Support from the husband is very important for women who will give birth. Patience too, because the pain of childbirth can not be said with words."
Radit nodded his head. "Yes Doc, I'm also actually quite anxious because it's the first experience. However, I will accompany the Wife to give birth later."
After the examination and consultation sessions were over, the two chose to return home.
"So how's baby, are you ready?" tanyanya while holding Khaira's hand walked out of the Hospital.
Khaira looked at her husband. "Yes get ready. But, it must be faced. Euhm, deg-degan the hell Mas." said Khaira while sighing.
Radit now embraces his wife. "The doctor said it's natural, all women who will give birth also feel the same way. We go together, yes. I'm always there for you and Baby A. Be lived because in the end we will be happy because we will meet the fruits of love we both love dear."
Khaira nodded her head. "Always accompany me during childbirth and welcome Baby A later. I need you so much, Mas .. I won't be able to deal with it myself."
"Yes dear, I will accompany you, accompany you. We welcome Baby A both. As I always said to you, I will always be a support system for you. I will always be there for you, hard or happy, healthy or sick, we live together. I'm sure you can be darling." said the man earnestly.
"Baby A healthy in the stomach of Mama yes, later if it's time we fight together yes dear. Papa will accompany Mama to welcome you born into the world later. Mom and Dad wanted to hug and hold you. Fighting equally yes Baby A his Papa and Mama." said Radit while stroking his wife's stomach gently.
Either way, from inside the stomach apparently Baby A also responds by kicking Khaira's stomach.
"Eh, Mom ... Baby A nendang. He's responding to your words, Mas. Here's your hand, Mom. Nih, still moving baby." said Khaira while putting her husband's hand on her stomach.
"Hi Baby A Baby .. You heard Papa say? So, we'll fight together, baby. We will soon meet my dear. Baby A grows up healthy, complete, and perfect huh..."
