We are going into the delivery room, the lights are bright, disorienting and every emotion within, is in the in between and without. Breathe with me we are almost there.
lyrics
Mmm Mmm Mmm
Ah Ah
We ey oh
The amniotic fluid is borderline
Is it time to push?
It hurts
I feel like pooping
Sing, don't scream
Your body will know
Did the water break?
What is going on?
Hold my hand
Pray
In distress! In Distress!
Emergency cesarean
We can't stand our ground
Blood pressure
Loss of blood
Hemorrhage
Heart beat
Low cry, sing
Sh!
Pray
The induction is not working, balloon
Risk of complications, mucus, the blood, how much?
Here she is, almost there, I can see the head, push
Where is my guide?
Preeclampsia?
What is going on?
I don't know how to do this
Tear, tear where?
Cardiomyopathy, stitches, the placenta looks good,
Stitches, bleeding after
Pain, don't do too much
The blood will show when you are doing too much
Go, go, stop, stop, work out
Oh sleep, sleep, nurse, breastfeeding
Just, argh ooo, she is here, please cry, thank God
The blood will show
Heel prick, love, so tired, love, my blood, my heart
Love hear me, can anyone hear me?
Who is this, who am I? I am everything
What is this? I did it, we did it, I didn't know how to do it
Oh what have I done, who am I?
Wow, elation, euphoria, please be okay
The cord is cut
Two to three times, three to four times
I survived
I am here, I am here
She is here
