#vrikshambirthstory

Hi anu akka,
This is Divya from bangalore. I attended online pre-preganacy class in June 2020. I was married in 2016 and we were trying from 2017. By God’s grace and trusting my body (as you said) , i got conceived naturally in October 2020. My pregnancy journey is not smooth. I had a very low cervical length and had to take oil based injections weekly. Also, we planned our delivery in my husband’s native with my inlaws support (my mother is no more) and so we moved at 5 months.

After consulting the doctor in native, we stopped the injection and my cervical length reduced to 1.4. I had cervical sutures and was advised to be in bed rest since then. Also, i tested covid positive during my 32nd week. Initially I got so scared and worried but after reading so much of stories in your feed regarding covid, I got confidence and i overcome it. In all these phases, my husband and my mother in law stood for me as pillar of support.

During 36th week, doctor told me baby is in transverse position and ask me to check auspicious date for c section. Then we discuss with my family and decided a date and went to hospital at 37 week. To our surprise, baby is now in correct position and I’m 3 cm dilated. So immediately I got admitted and taken covid test. To everyone’s surprise I got delivered my baby boy at 8 pm vaginally.

My mother in law took great care of us and did everything from delivery to now. My father in law also takes care of baby when mil is busy. We are so blessed. And, my boy turns one yesterday.

I want to share this story to show positivity and hope in life. I lost hope in everything after my mother’s demise but now things changed in my life.

Thanks and lots of love to my husband and mil ❤
