Jerlina, the moment the doctor asked if she wants an epidural, readily agreed. She had a trial of labor pain when she miscarried and she was not prepared to go through it again.
It was Jeremy panicking and walking around nervously.
"Tell me if he becomes unbearable. I will knock him in the head," Dr. Kruger whispered in Jerlina 's ears.
Jerlina grimaced not knowing if Dr. Kruger is kidding or not. But the glint in Dr. Kruger's eyes made Jerlina believe that the doctor was not jesting.
Well, she didn't care much. The doctor was too stressed to sleep and her dear husband was too nervous to even sit. She, on the other hand, had a nice rest; for a couple of hours, after which that terrible pain started.
She patted herself for having the wisdom to get the epidural. She didn't know how more terrible the pain would have been without it.
"It's your fault!" she said gritting her teeth after two hours.
