21 Apr 2007, Sat

1030: Visited gynae, Dr Tan & decided to start the induction with 1.5cm dilation. Prostin was inserted.
1430: Admitted to hospital without any contractions.
1940: Gynae came. I was only 2.5cm dilated & still no contraction. I was put on Pitoxin drip. Contractions started almost immediately & i asked for epidural.
2045: Dr Lau, the Anesthetist arrived. Process of epidural started & i felt the pain relief after 30mins.
2230: I pain like hell & felt like epidural didn't work at all. Dr Lau was called back to ensure that epidural was functioning well.
2340: Dr Lau checked & confirmed epidural was well administered. He asked midwive to check for dilation. Suprise, i was fully dilated & ready to give birth.
