I was on labor in this picture. Trying to smile but the pain is indescribable. I think I was 9cm dilated this time and having bad painful contraction. Very excited mommy and daddy.It was 4:30 in the morning, October 23rd of 2009 when our baby angel was ready to see the world. Finally after almost 9 months of having her in my tummy she was ready to come out to be with her mom and dad. Since it is my first baby, I didn't know that time that it was time to deliver her. I felt light cramps in my lower abdomen. I had a feeling that it was time but Jeff and I were not really sure and we didn't want to go to the hospital coz it might be a false labor. But few hours later the pain/cramps were getting strong and still we weren't sure. I called my sister from the Philippines and asked her. She told me to go to the hospital right away because I'm in labor. Of course she knows how it feels coz she have 3 kids. Jeff asked me to call her coz surely we will be experiencing the same. At 9:00am we went to the hospital and it was funny coz we told the nurses that we will just go home if it's false alarm but I was already 4cm dilated when the nurse checked. After less than 10 minutes the bag of water broke. Then in an hour it was 7cm to 9cm until at 2:00pm I was fully dilated. Baby came out at 2:14pm. And there she is when she was born, 6lbs 12oz.
