" Thank God my second daughter was born healthy and safe.
Thankful that I could give birth at home with my mother.
In the past, Iman was born accompanied by adoptive mother mas Ali because mother was accompanying mbak Titi who was going to marry bang Ari and also mother did not know if I gave birth to Iman. "
" It feels happy to be able to give birth accompanied by the mother, not to want to bother the mother but I feel the affection of the mother who has never been interrupted even though I already have children. "
" The morning after Titi left for the office, I started to feel contractions. My waist feels sore and hot. I immediately called mom to say if I had started to contract. "
" Mommy, Tuti's stomach has started to hurt, the waist also feels hot. "I said to my mother as I approached the mother who was feeding the children to eat in the kitchen.
" Of course, then have father Iman call a midwife, mother will prepare the needs for you to give birth." said mother to me while asking the children to eat alone.
" Nanda, Faith, eat alone huh? grandma wants to help mother Faith first.
It's Dik-dik's adek to help feed him. " mother's pinta on Nanda and Iman.
" Yes, grandma! " answered Nanda and Faith together.
" Mr, why mother? " ask Faith in Mother.
" His mother is sick, wants to give birth, later Iman's sister will be born." replied the mother to Faith.
" So soon Iman will have a sister huh, Grandma? " ask Faith again.
" Yes, that's why the clever Faith? kan already want to have a sister "mommy replied to Iman
" Hurray.. Faith wants a sister..! bang, Iman wants to have a sister. "Iman said to Nanda cheerfully.
Nanda simply responded by nodding while continuing to eat it.
" When you've eaten, the same plate as the cup put in this bucket, huh, Faith? bang Nanda's? also put the plate got Dik-dik. " said mother before mother went to room on Nanda and Iman.
" Yes, grandma! " answered Faith and Nanda, and the two continued to eat.
" Tut, where do you keep the plastic for the birth mat? you brought it here, right? " ask your mother when she is in the room.
" That's ma'am, it's in the basket on the sideboard. "I answered my mother.
Mother lowered the basket from the top of the sideboard and took the plastic that used to be used mbak Titi to give birth, then stretched the plastic over the bed.
While mom prepared the necessities for me to give birth, I walked to the side of the house to find Ali's mas in the meubel and asked Ali to pick up the mother midwife.
" Mas, please pick up the midwife now, it feels like Tuti is going to give birth. "my door to Ali who is preparing the tools to work.
" It's getting sick, mom? then I'll pick up the midwife now " said Mas Ali while putting the sugu he was holding.
Mas Ali hurried to pick up the key of the motorbike located on the tivi, then bid farewell to pick up the midwife.
" Mom, I went to pick up my midwife first" Mas Ali said to me.
" Yes, be careful on the road" I said to mas Ali.
After Ali left, I walked to the kitchen to see the children eating.
Apparently they had finished eating and were storing dirty dishes in a bucket.
Very smart children, want to obey what was said by the mother.
" Eat it, already? " just ask them.
" Already, mom. "
" Already, bi. "
answer Faith and Nanda at the same time.
" When you're done eating, you guys watch tivi aja huh? don't go anywhere, his Dik-dik bang is nurtured." I said to Iman and Nanda.
I set the story for the kids using the DVD so they can watch quietly.
After that, I continued to walk around inside the house while occasionally enduring the pain.
In the room, I had everything ready. Plastic is installed on the mattress, clothes and equipment for the baby also have the mother prepare on the other side of the bed.
I am so grateful that there is still a mother who helps all my needs, because I do not have in-laws who can help at times like this.
I do not know the Ali mas family because here he just wander and he said his family is on the island of Java.
" If you are not going for a walk, take a break in the room" said my mother to me.
I just patted my mother's words while rubbing my stomach that felt more pain.
I tried to catch my breath and throw it away slowly while having a sigh in my heart.
Because this is the birth of the second child, a little bit I already have experience during childbirth so I don't panic too much.
" Sit down first Tut, this is drinking warm sweet tea so that there will be energy. "said mother asked me to sit down, then gave a glass of warm sweet tea for me to drink.
I sat near the children who were busy watching a cartoon from the cassette tape I had just played.
They were so engrossed in the spectacle that they did not notice me sitting on a chair not far from them.
I drank the tea made by my mother while rubbing my stomach.
The pain is still gone.
After finishing one cup of sweet tea, I wanted to pee, then I walked slowly to the bathroom to urinate.
" Where are you going, Tut? " ask mom when she sees me walking over to my mom who is in the kitchen.
" Want to go to the bathroom, ma'am, it felt like Tuti wanted to pee. "I answered my mother.
" Beware the road, do you need help? " ask mommy.
" No need, ma'am, Tuti can still walk slowly. "I replied to my mother.
In the bathroom when I pee, I feel that it is not urine, but maybe amniotic fluid that has started to come out.
From the bathroom I went straight to the room and laid myself on the bed because the pain in my stomach had started to feel more and more pain than before.
Mother came over and rubbed my waist to help calm and relieve the pain in my waist.
After almost an hour, Ali returned with his mother, who checked the birth canal.
" Alhamdulillah already want complete. bookkeeping, patience huh? stay a little while longer " said the midwife to me.
I could only smile in response to the midwife's words because I was feeling pain from my stomach.
I have served a glass of tea to the midwife while waiting for the complete opening.
Ten minutes later from what the midwife said, I felt my stomach twisting and felt like I wanted BAB.
With a swift bu midwife inspects the already perfect birth canal.
With the help of the mother midwife and the prayers of the mother, I was finally able to give birth to my second daughter safely.
It feels good and happy after going through this process.
After the baby is bathed and the room is tidied from a plastic mat, I rested in the room accompanied by three boys who did not want to be away from my baby because maybe they were surprised to feel excited about the tiny baby in front of them.
Thank you mother who has accompanied the process of giving birth and helping all my needs.
What a mother's love from the time we are in the womb until we will not still be able to feel.
