SECS 8 Week 5: The story of my birth

_{Edited by Canva}

Tell us in the most creative way, What is the story of your birth?

In order to answer this question, I went to my mother to tell me the details of my birth, and I know her, do not forget those moments, and i wrote down her speech as follows:

As for me, I delivered you without my due date. I was going to do a follow-up, and they told me that there was not enough water around the fetus, and they immediately decided to deliver, I mean, I was not prepared for anything, and I never was, but I put my trust in God.

They put me to sleep for your safety, a day later the doctor came to see me and examined me and said that I was still due a waste of time. But after a few minutes nurses came, they said to me, "Come on, madam is going to give birth" 😳 I was shocked, the doctor said, "Not today???"

But because of the baby's situation, I trusted God afterwards and walked..I sat for hours in the delivery room, not feeling anything, no pushing, so they gave me artificial pushing through a syringe, and every little period they added me dose, with the screams of the women around me and the pain of the artificial pushing, fear entered my heart, but I kept on remembering God and was patient.

Praise God, after waiting for about 13 hours in the delivery room, on October 7, 1984 I saw you, my beloved baby, in my arms 💗the sight of you was worth all the pain and fear I was feeling and more..

And then I realized that if I thought about childbirth, death, and I don't know what, as some women say, you will have a hard time giving birth. If you are patient and trust God, remember him and entrust yourself and your fetus to him, the hours will pass for you like minutes.

May God make it easy for every mother to carry it, give birth and raise it, and increase its reward and elevate its status.

Have you had any particular experience with a pregnant woman?

During my wife's pregnancy period with my two children, I tried as much as possible not to make her cook or do anything at home, even though she wanted the opposite, and although due to my job I am not able to help her with many household chores, but I would at least ask her not to cook and eat sandwiches or ready meals.

On the other hand, I supported her psychologically, as I tried to love her about the pregnancy with positive words that encouraged her to endure or distracted her from thinking that pregnancy was just pain and fatigue.
I always told her, "Going to heaven is not free or money. Why are mothers going to heaven?"

On the other hand, I tried to ignore everything that had happened because it was known that the change of body hormones negatively affected a woman's mood, behavior and emotions, and I did not allow any dialogue or problems that arose to become major, and we quickly dealt with them and on one occasion a major problem arose because of me, but thank God it went smoothly. .

It is true that the woman will be tense and nervous at times during the pregnancy due to hormonal changes, but at the same time, embrace it with a conscience that guarantees any problem will pass, no matter how strong it is.

Did you inherit any disease from your parents? Tell us the details.

By the grace of God, I am not a carrier of any hereditary disease from either of my parents, although my mother suffers from seasonal allergies, which affects her throughout the period of pollination between the trees in spring. We also have a law in Tunisia which obliges couples to submit a medical report before marriage, which has helped to reduce the proportions of hereditary diseases which increase through consanguineous marriage, because the risk of infection increases in because of the similarity of certain genes of the same family.

During your childhood, Do you remember any recurring illnesses?

During my childhood, I did not suffer from any recurrent or chronic disease, on the contrary, I was very active and obsessed with the sport, especially the football game which I played daily, and my diet was quite healthy. I had only visual impairment (if that can be considered a disease) when I was fourteen, which has led me to wear glasses to this day.
