Birth to Badass Dimitri's Story
Chapter 1 Birth Olena's POV
I just woke up and rolled my awkward pregnant body out of bed. I caress my big watermelon of a belly and whisper "Good morning my baby, you need to get off my bladder. Mommy has to pee 24/7 because you are so big and squishing it. It's time for you to come out now." Bam, I feel a kick in my ribcage. Ouch, that hurt. I rub the spot on my side where the baby just kicked. I am feeling every bit of my nine months of pregnancy. Any day now I am going to pop! I waddle myself to the bathroom as fast as I can go because I really have to go pee, really bad, my teeth feel like they are floating!
I am only 20 years old and this is my second child. I really hadn't planned on being such a young single mother, but who does? I was only 18 when I had my daughter Karolina. I thought he loved me. I thought he would marry me one day. But I should have known better, in our society that doesn't happen. The children's father, well what can I say, he's an ass, but I love him. If it wasn't for the fact that he is a Royal Moroi maybe things would be different.
I head for the kitchen. I hear little toddler noises so I am guessing my mama is feeding Karolina. As I come down the stairs one at a time, trying to maintain my balance with my huge belly, I hear mama grumbling about something. That's nothing new, I love my mama, but sometimes she is so ornery. I finally make it around the corner and enter through the narrow doorway. Well it feels narrow to me.
"My god mama I feel as big as a house!" I say to my mama Yeva.
"You will have big boy!" Yeva said in her broken English with the heavy Russian accent. "I know, I see it. You listen to your mama." She placed her hand on my cheek with her thumb on the other side and under my chin; she shakes my face in her hand.
"You should rest; you will have hard labor, Soon! She said throwing her hand in the air.
"I just got up mama, I need to eat." I say tiredly.
"Ok, you sit I feed you!" she said in her demanding tone.
I sigh, "Yes, mama."
I only had like two bites of food and I felt full! My god this baby is huge. So big it presses on my bladder and pushes up on my stomach so I can't eat anything, plus my belly sticks out like a huge beach ball. I really just can't wait for this baby to come out already!
I have been having Braxton hick's contractions for weeks. I just sit around in a recliner with my feet up because they are so swollen and I wait. It's been fairly warm in Baia so the heat is making me pretty uncomfortable.
I decide since I really don't seem to be able to eat anything more I will just go to my recliner. I get up to take my plate to the sink and suddenly I am wet from about waist down.
"Oh shit" I curse, my mama gives me a dirty look, "Mama, my water just broke!" I said excitedly. Her eyes travel down to the floor. She makes a face that says 'great I have to clean that up' "sorry mama" I say apologetically. She just waves her hand at me and starts gibbering in some incoherent Russian. She runs off to the laundry room and comes back with am arm load of dirty towels.
"Olena, go change and we go to hospital!" she said angrily snapping me out of my daze. As she tosses the towels on the floor to clean up the mess I run off to change. It takes me a while because every few minutes I am having a contraction. I am trying to breathe through it, but damn they hurt!
"Finally!" Yeva yells as she sees me waddling down the staircase.
"I'm coming MAMA as fast as I can. Did you get my bag?" She just looks at me like I asked a stupid question. Which I have to admit it probably was my mama is very efficient.
She gets me to the car and drives fairly fast to the hospital. I am relieved when I make it through those big glass double doors of the hospital. I walk to the desk and say in Russian 'I'm having my baby' to the nurse at the desk. She smiles politely and says "name"….. "Olena Belikov" I reply "Ok, have a seat someone will get you shortly." She said back to me in Russian.
I waddle over and sit down waiting to be brought back to my room. I try to concentrate on my breathing to make it through more contractions. They are definitely getting harder. Mama comes in after parking the car and sits down next to me holding Karolina in her lap. She is not much of a talker so we sit in silence. Finally my name is called and I waddle my way to the back rooms.
For the next several hours it is the usual crap. They take my blood pressure, then check the monitor, then check to see how far dilated I am. Then things start picking up for me. All I can do is concentrate on the breathing and the pain. Mama took Karolina to the nursery so she could be here with me. I'm really glad I have her support right now.
"Ok, Olena, It looks like its time to push. You are dilated to 10 so its time. On your next contraction you're going to bare down and push hard. Count to15 while you bare down and then take another breath and bare down again." The doctor says encouragingly.
I let out an ear piercing scream as I push as hard as I can. Forget counting! Are you kidding me! Like I can even think straight. I am exhausted and in serious pain. Suddenly I get this unreal sensation. I literally felt the baby slide down the birth canal. The next contraction hits hard. I scream bloody murder again.
"Good job Olena, the head is crowning keep breathing." The doc says again. I suck in a couple of deep heaving breaths. My chest is rising hard with the panting ragged breath. Sweat is dripping down my forehead and my hair is stuck to me. My mouth is so dry from breathing so hard that I can barely swallow.
"Ok Olena, here comes the next contraction, push hard." The doc says again. I squeeze my eyes shut and take a deep breath. I push as hard as I can. I scream in burning pain as the head slides out of my vagina and as it rips and tears my skin. Tears leak from my eyes as the pain seers through my body.
"Oh my god that hurt!" I say in a raspy breathless voice. I swipe my hand across my face to wipe away some of the sweat and tears.
"Ok Olena we're almost there. Just a few more you can do this." I nod my head in response to tired to answer.
"Here we go Olena, push!" I scream and grunt as I force the baby's shoulders out of my body. Suddenly, relief- oh thank god.
The next sound is so beautiful it makes all this pain and suffering worth every moment. The sound of my baby' first cries. "Congratulations, Olena, it's a boy! A very big healthy looking boy!" The doc says with a smile and lays my new born baby boy on my chest and stomach and hips?
"Wow, he's huge!" I laugh and cry at the same time. The doc nods his head smiling at me.
"He sure is! We need to take him for measurements for a minute; we will bring him back in just a few minutes." I nod my head and kiss my baby boy on the forehead. I relax the best I can as we deal with the last of the birth. The placenta comes out easily after that huge baby boy and the doc sews me up.
A minute later a nurse brings my son all wrapped up in his little blue blanket with a little blue hat on his head. A soft brown tuft of hair sticks out from under his little blue hat. I smile at her as she lays him in my arms. "He's absolutely beautiful, perfect in every way." She says to me.
"Thank you. How big is he?" I ask curiously.
She gives me a big brilliant smile. "25.5 inches, he broke our hospitals record for longest new born. And he weighs 10 pounds 4 ounces. That's not a record, but it's a good healthy weight for such a tall little guy."
"Wow, that's amazing that he broke the hospital record. I knew this big guy was going to do amazing things and look he has already started." I say with a small laugh. The nurse smiles and laughs too.
"Well he is absolutely beautiful, Olena." She says sincerely. "Have you got a name for your little man?" she asked adoringly.
"Yes, I'm going to name him Dimitri, Dimitri Belikov." I say proudly.
