Poem
Jayden Makieh Kelly Later on that day others came and kept us company. Everyone sat around, talked, and watched t.v. I eventually got up a few times and walked through the hallways with the contractions at times stopping me in my path. But, I always had someone there with me so that helped make it not so bad. I was put on pitocin to help me sleep and my contractions become closer together and stronger. My friend T’tiera came and rubbed my stomach until she had to leave and go to class and could not stay longer. I was very, very drowsy, in pain and the contractions made me feel lousy. Your nana could not get a break to sit down. She was there to rub my back and stomach every time I frowned. I thank God that she was there, even though at that time she was there with me all alone. There was even one moment where I was calling her to rub me, someone was knocking at the door, and people were calling on both the hospital and cell phone! After hours of dealing with the pain, at around 4pm I decided to get the epidural medicine. That was a very tense moment for I had to be perfectly still and manage the pain of the contractions within. But, boy oh boy was that the a great joy! I was desperately in need of some relief and great sleep. That epidural made it possible for me to do that and help all of the pain cease. I went to sleep and had dilated to a six. However, while I was sleeping some complications came up that they had to fix. My heartbeat had dropped and was infecting you. They put a monitor on your head to monitor you. They were even discussing performing a caesarean delivery to get you out. However, everything turned out fine and the labor went about. Everything had been stabilized with me still sleeping not knowing anything, not having to realize what was happening with you inside. But hours later when I awoke I was informed about all of those complications that had aroused and how the doctors fixed them like a mechanic. I think it was a good thing that I had been in a deep sleep because I probably would have over-reacted and made things worse with panic. However, I was thankful that everything turned out to be fine. If something would’ve happened to you I would’ve lost my mind.
