after almost 33 hours of being in bed no. 2 of the st. luke's delivery room, i gave birth last april 1 at 35 weeks. had to go through a c-section because my cervix refused to fully dilate. (duh... wasn't due for 5 more weeks!)
seeing baby rauf (pronounced ra-OOF) makes everything worth all the moans, groans, sweat & tears.
BUT i swear i will not go through that harrowing experience ever again.
(erase harrowing experience here lest i scare all my single female friends)
my baby is still being kept under close watch at the st. luke's nursery for infections and other complications he got due to prematurity. but thank God he's strong enough not to need to be placed inside an isolette/incubator. despite my own need for rest, i am prepping myself for the daily visits to the nursery to breastfeed him.
and so the path to motherhood has begun. wish me luck.

Constant support is vital for breastfeeding moms... so, If you need tips or just feeling frustrated (yes it can and will be at times) and need encouragement... just howler. Will be glad to share with you all i know. Still breastfeeding my son til now, (1yr9mos), ayaw magpapigil! dont like na nga e. hahaha... although, he's been taking formula since he turned 13mos :)
