Although, I have a lot of memorable moments in my life. I would have to say the day i gave birth to my first child, would be my favorite memory that stands out. In 2009, I was expecting to give birth to my first baby girl in October. All throughout my pregnancy I had a lot of complications. Ranging from morning sickness, to high blood pressure, to kidney stones. Even with all the problems I was facing, I was still very excited to give birth to my daughter. On August 5, 2009, while eating out at Chicos Tacos with the father of my daughter, I began to have contractions. By now this was a normal feeling for me, so I just took the medication that my doctor had prescribed to me. After a few minutes of more discomfort, the medication started …show more content…
At one point, I felt so much discomfort, I thought I had to use the restroom. But my grandma warned me that the baby could come out if I pushed too hard. At that point I could no longer hold back my tears, I was in excruciating pain. By there I began to become impatient and frustrated with the pain. My grandma saw my frustration and demanded my boyfriend to take me to the hospital. Once again he denied to take me. So then I started to call my friends and family to ask for a ride, but I got no luck as no one answered. But I couldn't give up, I kept on calling and calling. At that time it was around 6:00 a.m. i made one last try to contact my case worker. She finally answered, I explained all my symptoms and let her know I could no longer take the pain. Still half asleep she assured me she would be over shortly. I didn't have to wait long within ten minutes she was ringing my doorbell. I let her in and she told me to start counting how far apart my contractions were. She asked my grandma if she could borrow some towels so she could put on her car seat, just in case my water ended up breaking. My boyfriend then
One of the most memorable moments in my life has to be when my grandaughter Aliana Marie Garcia was born. I had been waiting for her to come to this world for a whole nine months!. it was already a special day I held closely as my religion celebrates a special occasion on that day, it is called, "El Dia de Los Reyes", which is a special religious holiday in Mexican culture that is centered around small gifts for children. It was definitely a very wonderful surprise with the precious gift any person can obtain, the gift of life.
Not many people understand the severity of an emergancy c-section. When I first heard those words I was terrified, not only for my life, but for my daughter's life as well. A rush of sadness came over me. I wasn't sure how to react to the news when the doctor told me there were complications. All I knew was my daughter's life was in danger and they wanted to cut me open.
My husband and I had moved to the States from the Middle East when I was seven months pregnant. We never had a chance to take any child birthing classes. I was nervous. A very pleasant-faced nurse came into the room to talk to us. My unfounded fears were brushed away by her calm demeanor. A few hours went by, the contractions started to get stronger, and I requested an epidural. After I got the epidural I didn't feel any pain at all. I was excited. I told my husband if this was how child birthing is, I was ready to have a brood like the Waltons. Then my labor pains stopped completely. My dilation stopped at seven centimeters. The doctor came in to check me and said that it would be better if they induced me. So I got a dose of pitocin. I felt pain like I had never before. I couldn't bear the pain of the contractions anymore. Finally, after twenty two hours of labor, the doctors told my husband that they would do an emergency Cesarean section. By then I was oblivious to al...
One day coming home from a long afternoon from hiking, being 31 weeks pregnant, I felt much drained so I headed to bed. I woke up to a feeling of wetness; I turned on the light to find that it was blood. I screamed for my husband and we immediately went to the hospital. I was scared and just not sure what to do since this was my first child. When we got the hospital we found I was in labor. The hospital did everything they could to postpone the labor so I could at least receive steroids for my child’s lungs to develop faster. These needed to be in my system for 24 hours before delivery. After delivery, he was rushed to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). I wasn’t even able to see him. I was worried, anxious, and stressed.
After almost one hour of “tube procedure connections”, I got up to go to the restroom with an IV pole following my s...

My second event was a little different. It was the event the totally changed my view of life. The unforgettable day was my wedding day. April 29th in the year 2002 was the day when I became responsible for my own life. Even though I have so many responsibilities I would never regret the moment I agreed to be my husbands wife. My wedding ceremony was the event that I dreamed of since I was a little girl. I imagined every detail of it. It was like a fairy tale wedding. I was wearing the most elegant dress in the world.

My mom took me to the hospital. The doctor had drawn blood and made me urine in a little cup. After the tests came back, the doctor came back in tears and my mom asked what’s wrong. He said
She just handed my mom a bunch of papers and stormed out like I did something wrong! It wasn’t ME who was putting a NEEDLE into HER arm! After that, we ended up going to a different
Becoming a mother has been the best part of my life. I became a mother at a very young age. I had no idea what to expect and was not in the least prepared for the journey that lie ahead. I have truly embraced motherhood and enjoy all the wonderful things it has taught me. While living through motherhood, I have found that it can teach you the most valuable lessons there are to learn. Being a mother has taught me how to have patience. I have also learned that being a mother takes a lot on mental and physical strength. My children have been the best to teach me how to juggle many tasks at once. They have made me strong. Even through some unexpected turns, I have learned how to get through hard times and really learn what it means to never give up. My children are my biggest blessing, and I hope they will learn valuable lessons through me. The skills I have learned from being a mother have helped me in my college journey.
High school years are supposed to be a time for fun and exciting events in every adolescent's life. There are parties, ball games, and local after school hangout joints where we can meet. All combined to making high school the most memorable years of any teenage girl?s life. However, my experience in high school took an uneventful turn in tenth grade. My carefree ways had to end and a new wave of responsibility was presented to me. I found out that I was two months pregnant. My thoughts tugged at my conscience, how was I to tell the father of my unborn child? Would my mother support my decision? I had to forget about my partying ways and hanging with my friends. My freedom days of coming and going were about to be over and I quickly became the girl about whom everyone was talking.

This day is one of the most memorable because of the feelings I had when I received it, the opportunities that were opened up for me and the long lasting benefits that I received from it that still exist today.
