The story I'm going to read to you is about Florian our first time our first child who was born in Taiwan.
Preparation for my first delivery did not reach any further than learning how to wash a plastic baby though in a Taiwanese hospital.
But all my birth were sacred to me. It is 3am and it's my two dates January 13. We parked in front of the hospital and my husband seat helps me out of the car.
The nurse looks at me, I'm panting and in the middle of a contraction. And she says hospital for no state. We must have looked like Mary and Joseph. I ignore her comments and sit down on a bench in the hallway. What was she telling us in her best English? I could hardly talk because the next wave washed over me. I'm getting my baby now. I'm mumble full hospital no bet for you. She says trying to communicate her authority again.
Another nurse comes along and she looks at me. And she points at the stretcher behind a curtain in the emergency room. Lie down is all she says. I climb on the stretcher and wonder what will happen next. My Files are lost. It takes the nurse a while to figure out what to do. Even though I have visited this Chinese hospital every couple of weeks for the last seven months. They can't find my name. However, I know that Taiwanese woman have babies here. And I figure if they can do it. So can I
the contractions are coming within seconds instead of minutes. Now. The doctor is not in sight. And I wonder if they know how far dilated I am. I can feel my baby dropping the pressures hard to resist see keeps reassuring me I'm doing fine that I have all the time in the world.
And I know I don't. Suddenly another nurse comes in. And she moves me into a room with patients who recover after operations and their family members are there to help. It's accustomed forum is to us. It's a room with at least eight people. Family members are lying on the floor.
And patients are in their beds. And there I am. I feel so uncomfortable and I feel my baby coming but I can't allow it. I sit on my leg and I push the baby's head up into my belly. Never in my life when I push up again. It goes against my body's wisdom. Nobody is here to help me. And I really need assistance. The gynecologist had told me over and over to never push if no one was there. He said I could rip open and die.
I'm not looking forward to that. So I push up instead of down. For one divine moments. I sit still and pull my legs up. Due to this odd movement. An old lady peeks behind my legs and she streaks and stands up from her chair. She runs to find a doctor. The old woman must have been an angel sent to save me. Her tone of urgency set something in motion within seconds. invisible hands roll me into the delivery room. It's dark and everything feels cold and metallic. As the nurse straps me onto a small errand table. My legs are in stirrups. I can't move yet because I'm afraid I will roll off the rather small table. After she leaves I'm alone.
SIP is taken to another room to change his clothes. My contractions are gone. I feel very peaceful. though. I'm confused about what to do next. Doctor Jen steps in. Suddenly all is well. I'm saved. My favorite doctor looks at me with questioning eyes. He thinks I'm doing this too, too fast. Given this is my first baby. He checks to see how far dilated I am. You can polish. He says speaking the magic words, though. They are too late. I have pushed my baby up and tucked him tightly back into my womb. I have no push contractions. My belly has come to arrest. Everyone stares at me, including sleep.
You go and push says Dr. Chan again. I wish he knew how he was too late with his encouraging words. And then I take a breath. This is I have a push contraction, but there's nothing there. I pretend that I feel another one. And I reached deep within with all my power. I connect my mind, my body and my spirit to this baby so and suddenly everything feels easy and effortless. Wash. Florian is born in one beautiful movement. A moment later, Dr. Chen holds him like a trophy in the air. You first the Son he says with pride 30 years ago, this culture openly believed it was far better to worse a baby board and a girl and my husband would be celebrated for his young potential. Dr. Chan is proud of sleep, very happy at this auspicious moment as if he had played a major role and created a gender of our child. He smiles at sleep, and gives him a thumbs up. As if to say good work.
I feel as if I'm not of this world. As I hold our newborn in my arms. You are so beautiful are the first words I say to Florian. Before I know it, they take him away, roll me out of the room, my stretcher is pushed again, against the wall. Only 15 minutes have passed. Since I was in the same spot. The old lady who saved me is fast asleep on the floor.
