Re: Moms to Be
i am 33.5 weeks now and even tho i know all the medical situations (emergency or not) since I am a doctor but i still can’t stop worrying about it all. my husband thinks me knowing it all and especially recently finishing my internship in ob/gyn is whats freaking me out more cause i have seen things go wrong. there have been nights where I cry because I think I might die cause my mom passed away from placenta accreta (the placenta was attached too deeply in the uterus wall and when they delivered the placenta the wall of the uterus was damaged and there was too much bleeding) while giving birth to me. I KNOWWWWWWW that a death from placenta accreta is nearly impossible these days cause its recognized as soon as the placenta is delivered and if nothing else can happen they’d do a hysterectomy but i feel like it can happen to me - there is no genetic correlation what so ever. but still i have these moments and i’ll tell my husband he has to be as good a dad as my dad is lol.
just two nights ago - i had weird cramps and the baby was moving a lot but then suddenly stopped moving so i started freaking out (about the umbilical cord being wrapped around his neck - ALLAH NA KARE) and i checked his heartbeat with my doppler and i couldnt get a heartbeat so both my husband and i got really worried and then i tried a few things and after 5 mins i got a heartbeat and i spent all night checking his heartbeat. its crazy how I love him so much already I can’t imagine anything happening to him.
I am sorry for sharing all my worries here hahaha. but the point is that YES - I am freaking out! i am not as scared of labour (well I am!) but i think that I can handle that but I wouldn’t be able to handle anything happening to my little baby. I am just constantly praying that he comes to this world safe and sound and may Allah bless him with a LONG life ahead.
May Allah bless all the pregnant ladies with a healthy and happy babies, ameen <3
Mashallah it is your first baby? May Allah bless you and him with all the health and happiness in the world. Worry not and do share, a support group helps a lot, especially when you are a new mom. Allah will protect you. Begin listening to surah rehman and surah maryam as well. Read durood when you can and try to send positive vibes to him. Talk to him. You are nearly there!
