Today at dawn my sister called saying that she was ready, everyone in the house ran out and went to the house where she was.

Hoy en la madrugada mi hermana llamo comentando que ya estaba lista, todos en la casa salimos corriendo y nos fuimos a la casa donde se encontraba.

When we got to the hospital, my sister's friend Ali (the midwife) told us that my sister didn't want to leave her house yet, so we made a detour from the hospital to Ali's house.

Cuando llegamos al hospital, la amiga de mi hermana, Ali (la partera) nos dijo que mí hermana no quería salir de su casa aún, así que nos desviamos del hospital a la casa de Ali.

When we arrived it was a shock for me, seeing my sister in this process of contractions was a very strong experience.

Cuando llegamos fue un impacto para mí, ver a mi hermana en ese proceso de contracciones era una experiencia muy fuerte.

At first I tried to talk little to her, sometimes I would throw jokes at her, however I was very afraid of the severe pain she was having, she shared with us when she was lucid at other times not.

Al principio trate de hablar poco con ella, a veces le lanzaba chistes sin embargo sentía mucho temor por los fuertes dolores que tenía, ella compartía con nosotros cuando estaba lúcida en otros momentos no.

Her mother and grandmother did not disagree with the process they were carrying out, they wanted to take her to the hospital, on the other hand Ali (the midwife) did not want to be taken away, she is against the mistreatment of women in the hospital, That is why they were trying to make this process of childbirth live it close to her family and when she is almost ready to take her to the hospital.

Su madre y su abuela no estaban descuerdo con el proceso que estaban realizando, ellas quieran llevarla al hospital, en cambio Ali (la partera) no quería que se la llevarán, ella está en contra del mal trato que viven las mujeres dentro del hospital, por eso estaban tratando de que esté proceso del parto lo vivieran cerca de su familia y cuando ya esté casi lista llevarla al hospital.

We had to be aware, each contraction had to be written down in a notebook along with the time, and she counted the number of contractions that came, when we arrived there were 12 and we went to the hospital with the number of 20, just when my sister said that They will take her to the hospital.

Teníamos que estar pendiente, cada contracción tenía que anotarse en un cuaderno junto a la hora, y ella contaba la el número de contracciones que venían, cuando llegamos eran 12 y nos fuimos al hospital con el número de 20, justamente cuando mi hermana dijo que la llevarán al hospital.

Carrying her was also a process, the father of the child along with me accompanied her little by little to the car. When we got to the hospital it was a totally distressing moment as soon as we left her, the bad treatment became evident, they asked us to leave her alone, it was difficult for us to leave her, we suffered a lot not being able to cope with her.

Llevarla también fue un proceso, el papá del niño junto a mí persona fuimos acompañándola poco a poco hasta el carro. Cuando llegamos al hospital fue un momento totalmente angustioso a penas la dejamos el mal trato se hizo evidente, nos pidieron que la dejáramos sola, nos costó dejarla, sufrimos mucho no poder con ella.

I spend half an hour and manage to give birth in perfect condition, the goal was achieved, we did not want her to last long in the hospital with the contractions and she did, we are proud to be able to be in that strong process with her, I thank Ali very much (the midwife) who always guide us at all times.

Paso media hora y logro parir en perfectas condiciones, el objetivo fue logrado, no queríamos que durará mucho en el hospital con las contracciones y así fue, nos sentimos orgulloso de poder estar en ese fuerte proceso junto a ella, agradezco mucho a Ali (la partera) que nos guío siempre en todo momento.

As I said at the beginning, the experience was unique, a great learning and a process of sensitivity with life that I will never forget, from today a delivery will not be the same as always, thank you very much to the Hivers for reading this content so full of love I hope May this experience help you to become aware of this issue.

Cómo dije al principio, la experiencia fue única, un gran aprendizaje y un proceso de sensibilidad con la vida que jamás olvidaré, desde hoy un parto no será lo mismo de siempre, muchas gracias a los Hivers por leer este contenido tan lleno de amor espero que les sirva esta experiencia para sensibilizarse ante este tema.
