Pregnant Narrative
I have a unique story to write about. When I was 15 I found I was pregnant. Initially, I just thought I had stomach cramps, but they got worse and eventually I went to the emergency room. My Mom went with me and stayed with me while the doctor ran some tests. The doctors thought I had the stomach flu, but they did a urine test and it showed I was pregnant. I felt nervous and afraid and my mom was upset. My mom was upset because she didn’t like the baby’s father.
My mom didn’t like my boyfriend because he spent too much time on the streets selling drugs, getting into fights and buying guns illegally. My boyfriend, Dray was happy about my pregnancy. I told him I was already 16 weeks pregnant. He was afraid to tell his mom. We talked …show more content…
My grandma told me that if they worsened, she would take me to the hospital. Shortly thereafter about 5 minutes later, the contractions worsened and my cousin picked us up to go to the hospital. I was already dilated to 5 centimeters when I was admitted. The doctor gave me an epidural which really helped, but I was so afraid to birth naturally that the doctors gave me an emergency c-section. I was awake during the delivery and remember that when they cut me open it felt really weird and numb. When my baby was born he looked like his dad. Dray came to the hospital, he was so happy as was my family. Soon after, I kicked everyone out so I could get some rest. I named my son, Tyrinn.
When my son was born he didn’t cry. He was a very hungry baby, he wanted to nurse a lot. When I had to give him a bath he would start crying because he was still hungry. He would sleep for 4-5 hours at time, which is good for an infant. Tyrinn changed my life. I started working at Six Flag Great America so I could make money to support him. I also returned to high school so I could get my high school diploma. I want to go into the United State Air Force so I can make a better life for myself and my

    Personal Ethnography

    On a quiet Sunday morning at Kings Daughters Hospital in Madison, Indiana, I was welcomed into this world via c-section. With my mother completely unconscious, my father was first to hold my whopping nine-pound six-ounce body. I was bald and twenty and a half inches in length. I arrived at 7:57 on January 8, 1999, and the weather was below freezing and snowy. For my mother, giving birth was an occurrence that she never intended to endure. Before my mother had me at the age of thirty nine, she went through multiple abortions. She had never wanted kids, but my father convinced her to…

    Describing the Characteristics of an Ideal Appraisal System.

    I then realized the look on the doctor’s face and that in it spoke the words that were unspoken. She started explaining to us that the mother was only 22 ½ weeks along and that she was going into premature labor. We had a decision to make -we could either let her naturally go into labor with the baby being breech (this will cause a head catch) which lessens the chance of survival or do an emergency C- section. For the first time in my life I had no way of fixing this. This was out of my hands and into the hands of God. I felt alone, desperate and frightened. I just kept thinking this wasn’t supposed to happen to me. I’m a good person! I go to church; I help people in need, and I greet people with a smile to brighten their day. So the question kept popping in mind why did this happen to me?…

    Personal History Project

    On September 8th 1990, it was a hot sunny day in the city of Cali, Colombia. Temperature around 88°F with very low humidity, normal for that time of year, since the summer was about to begin. A sky full of altocumulus clouds cooled the estimated population of about 1.7 million people ("1990 population estimate for Cali, Colombia."). Among that population there was my mother. Already late for her gynecology appointment, inconveniently causes by a car accident, she would shortly find out when I would be entering the world. The accident turned a 20-minute drive in a 45-minute drive. Rushing into the clinic, as the doctor’s assistant was calling her name, she rapidly was taken to the back to speak with the provider. When the doctor came into the room he calmly said, “I have good news, and bad news”. My mom’s heart already racing she decided to go with the bad news first. “The probability of being a complicated birth is pretty high, which means the surgical team will have to perform a cesarean section instead of a vaginal birth”. My mother relived thinking it would be something much worse she asked the doctor to go ahead with the good news. “The baby will probably be arriving today”. My mom became frantic, “that’s the good news? They might as well both have been bad! My mother panicked, she had nothing ready for the birth, since her first child was not due for another 10 days. Her hormone levels raging at an all time sky high, she shortly began to cry. The doctor and his staff hugged her and reassured her that everything was going to be ok. They quickly rushed her to the hospital where they would have all the equipment in the event that there were any major complications. Once she was all settled in, the operating room staff started to prepare for the birth around 3:15 P.M. The staff thought I was ready to come out, however I took another three hours to make my grand appearance. At 6:23 PM I arrived spreading my arms and legs with a…

    Anesthesiologist: A Short Story

    Upon arriving it became obvious the night ahead of us would be long. I had not dilated at all, but my body was in labor. After some time, the doctor hooked me up to I.V. medication to speed up the process. I requested my epidural and the anesthesiologist came. After inserting the epidural, they informed my mother they would be back when they did the c-section on me. My mother did not tell me this until after the delivery. She knew I had prayed, and believed by faith I would deliver Micah naturally. Several medical people had told me I would not deliver my baby naturally due to my size and shape, but I prayed and trusted God would somehow aid me in a natural delivery. I had to go back to work seventeen days after Micah was born.…

    Cleft Palate Surgery Narrative Essay

    I'm so nervous and worried but they called us into the room to get her ready for the surgery. My little baby girl didn't know what was about to happen. My heart was falling apart to see her so small and having to experience this. They finally take her in so I tell her how much I love her and cry. After seven hours of waiting, they call me and tell me that the surgery was over and I could go in to intensive care to see her. That moment was the worst seeing her in so much pain. She passed out on me twice and doctors were so concerned of her reaction. Being there for a month wondering if she was going to make it or not is something I don't wish no one will ever have to go through. But my little angel, my warrior, fought so hard, she overcame it and we left the hospital on January 29th making our way back to El Paso,…

    Personal Narrative: How Death Changed My Life

    At 12:30 at night on June 1, 2015, my life would soon change forever. I was pregnant with my first child and my water had just broken. My mom rushed me to the hospital where I was immediately put in a private room, in the hospital bed where I was about to deliver my first child, a son. He came so quickly (5 & 1/2 hours in total) and I had requested no pain medications and turned it down on several occasions as the medical staff pleaded with me to use it. The pain began to become more and more unbearable, so much so that I honestly felt paralyzed from my waist down. My body was taking over to my surprise and I was just there with my legs in stirrups. They seemed immovable and with the pains coming faster, it is as if they stopped receiving any of the signals my brain was sending to them.…

    Hypokalemic Paralysis: A Short Story

    It was a cheery Wednesday morning I was skipping alongside my mother, excitedly chattering away about my new friends and the things I was learning, when suddenly my mother started to slow down. She stopped and grabbed her head and then crumpled to the sidewalk. Confused, I assumed she was joking so I nudged her asking her to get up. She remained unresponsive and panic began to set in. I sat down next to her, and my friend Beatrice’s parents came rushing over. Her dad kneeled next to my mom and dialed 911, and her mom assured me everything was going to be okay and walked Beatrice and I into the school. The ambulance arrived and my Mom woke up, and my family was launched into four years of searching for a diagnosis.…

    Personal Narrative: I Want A Baby

    I belong to the classification of people know as educators. I am a teacher and unfortunately, I am not a mother. Yet. Just recently my younger sister of 28 years, just gave birth to her third child. The most beautiful seven point fifty-two pound little baby girl. With hair brown like melted chocolate and eyes the color of honey, dressed up in a pink mommy’s little girl onesie. I see her kids every day and I see other parent’s kids every day too, but why don’t I have any of my own. I thought about that as I sat there rocking little Evelyn in my arms and it suddenly occurred to me that I, too, would like to be a mother. Not just an educator or an aunt, but a mother with a baby of her own. Why do I want a Baby?…

    “ Either Ricky or Emmanuel” said my mom.I was somewhat sad to hear that because I was hoping to see him that day. We headed out afterwards to go and get something to eat, but my mom said she was going to stay a while longer and to go back for her later that day. All day long I was just thinking about when we were going to be able to see him, when was I going to be able to carry him, I was just feeling so anxious.
