saya study and plan for my birth sejak awal tahu preggy lagi. sepanjang 9 bulan tu makin banyak kita belajar ada lah adjustments yg dibuat. plan asal no induction no painkiller no episiotomy no pitocin fundal massage for 3rd stage, basically none to low intervention lah. tapi sebab bersalin gov kan. ada certain doktor di govs still with the outdated practice of first mom wajib episiotomy, and masa bersalin tu dah tak larat nak argue so iyakan aje bila doktor kata nak gunting. pitocin fundal massage pun saya layankan je atas sebab yg sama, tak larat nak argue. tapi ada lah few other things doktor respect my decision, macam tak nak pecahkan ketuban, etc. and despite being diagnosed with GDM, saya dapat delay induction until 41w alhamdulillah. basically yg penting communicate with your provider. kalau di swasta, check up & bersalin dgn doktor yg sama, inshaAllah senang. kalau gov, make sure inform semua awal2 masa mula2 admitted (salah saya kena juga episiotomy & fundal massage etc tu sebab tak inform awal).
and "nikmat bersalin" tu to me bukan part sakit tu, tapi part feeling high from all the hormones (oxytocin, endorphin, adrenaline etc) especially felt immediately after baby keluar. and these hormones juga yg akan bantu kita immediately bond with baby, act as painkiller, progress 3rd stage etc. epidural akan ganggu penghasilan & action of all those hormones. and sakit bersalin is physiological, yg akan guide kita apa nak buat untuk lahirkan baby etc, bukan pathological yang perlukan treatment. saya ambil jugak painkiller once dah hit active labor, PCM je lah tapi haha 😂
