I Gave Birth

And just like that...light came out of my vagina and I had a baby girl.

I want to share my very exciting and unexpected delivery but I'm feeling too tired to weave a cohesive thought.

But in a nutshell, I had a vaginal delivery with epidural and episiotomy. It was not CS, as previously feared. Baby was born healthy at 5 lbs, 3 ounces  with a 9,9 APGAR score. 

I'm now here at my inlaws and I have officially started ge lai.

And yes.. l wash my privates with water and gyne-pro. I can't imagine those who follow strict  ge lai and really avoid  this. There is bleeding after delivery so you have to really wash to avoid infection.

It's also impossible to avoid washing your hands because when you wipe your privates everytime you go to the toilet. You need clean hand because you touch the baby during breast feeding. 

I will write separately about my ge lai experience and medications once I've completed my 30 days.

Thank you all for your prayers! I am alive and we are okay!

Grateful,

L

PS> the light on my vagina is called the peri light. The purpose is to help with the healing of the stitches. My vagina has sutures :(
