I\u2019ve written our birth story as follows from here.<\/p>\n<p>Melissa had to have her induction at 38 weeks due to gestational diabetes.\u00a0\u00a0She was originally hopeful for a water birth, but this was ruled out due to the monitoring requirements of an induction.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately due to scheduling requirements, the induction was delayed by a day, which felt like forever and we were very eager to meet our baby. On the 21st of April, Melissa had the balloon catheterisation and the artificial release of membrane on the following day. The catheter was not comfortable, and after about an hour Melissa started experiencing intense cramping sensations. We were advised that these would happen, and that they would reduce shortly after, and they did.<\/p>\n<p>The following morning, I arrived to the hospital. We met one of our midwives from the MGP, and ran through our birth preferences with her. I set up the room, with our LED candles, the diffuser, Mel\u2019s affirmation poster, our playlist, and I also prepared all the snacks and refreshments that we had already packed for the big event.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/hypnobirthingaustralia.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Images-for-website-11.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-104919 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/hypnobirthingaustralia.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Images-for-website-11-300x188.jpg\" alt=\"water using labour for pain relief\" width=\"300\" height=\"188\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hypnobirthingaustralia.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Images-for-website-11-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hypnobirthingaustralia.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Images-for-website-11.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>We requested to wait for half an hour after the AROM for onset of labour, but this did not occur, so Mel proceeded to have the syntocinon drip at 8:00AM, which definitely got things moving. Very soon she was experiencing regular surges, and she started happily labouring away on the fitball.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, a small spanner in the works presented &#8211; our baby\u2019s heart rate was falling substantially for short periods, fairly regularly, which was quite distressing. To keep Mel calm, the midwives kindly turned down the volume on the sound that the monitor played. We then established that the drops in heat rate only occurred when Mel was in comfortable positions on the fitball, so she had to labour in positions for several hours that made the surges feel more intense. Melissa was also distressed as at the second examination, the doctor reported to us that she was still at 3.5cm, just like she had been hours before when they did the AROM. We tried to go through the scripts but this was not easy when Mel was lying in the uncomfortable positions. Instead, we had more success keeping calm by repeating mantras like \u2018Each surge brings my baby closer to my loving arms\u2019, and reminding Melissa that she could take each surge one at a time. She later said that visualising the baby moving down with each surge, and gently helping her dilate with each surge, was extremely helpful.<\/p>\n<p>At about midday, Melissa was finding the surges very intense and decided that the best thing to use to cope with the surges was the shower. She could labour away in much more comfort, holding on to the rails in there to support herself, while being soothed by the hot water. I forgot to bring a raincoat or a change of clothes so I had to shower her while shielding myself with the shower curtain. Mel\u2019s surges got more and more intense, and she started making more noise, bravely and loudly moaning through many surges over a couple of hours in the shower. I am very glad that I didn\u2019t have to pay for the water bill.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/hypnobirthingaustralia.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Images-for-website-10.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-104914 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/hypnobirthingaustralia.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Images-for-website-10-300x188.jpg\" alt=\"Melissa's baby\" width=\"300\" height=\"188\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hypnobirthingaustralia.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Images-for-website-10-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hypnobirthingaustralia.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Images-for-website-10.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>After a couple of hours, Melissa returned to the bed, and we kept going through mantras and calming techniques. Our midwife noted she was 8.5cm dilated, which strongly encouraged Mel to keep going. The feelings became even more intense, and Melissa nearly panicked, crying out due to the intensity &#8211; but our midwife helped her to remember to breathe that surge down towards our baby. Shortly after, Mel started feeling the occasional urge to push &#8211; Our doctor did say that we could start pushing in about an hour\u2019s time, but as the urge became more intense and frequent, our midwife realised that this was happening much sooner than that. She managed to stand with me holding her, to help things along with gravity &#8211; and a very short time later, Mel started to feel the need to bear down, and she just kept breathing, and vocalising, until the baby was nearly there. She had a huge smile on her face when we could see the top of our baby\u2019s head. A few short minutes later, Oscar was born at 8lb, 4oz. Melissa had delivered him in 8 hours.<\/p>\n<p>She had this to add;<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Having Adam calmly help me through labour was instrumental in my positive birth experience. He was a brilliant between the doctors and myself. Adam held me and rocked with me a lot, and having my face resting against his shoulders meant that one of my strongest memories of labour is the smell of Adam\u2019s perfume. I\u2019m so glad that\u2019s a memory I get to take with me. Being able to watch his face as our baby was born and seeing him cry with the rush of emotion is one of the most special moments of my life. I\u2019m so grateful that hypnobirthing helped Adam feel confident and comfortable during the birth of our son.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Thank you!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Melissa &amp; Adam&#8217;s Birth Story Melissa &amp; Adam Baby Oscar April 2021 Bunbury Hospital We attended the positive birth program at Bunbury hospital a couple of months back.
