Zone 8 (Closed with bhdire8 )

[bhdire8]

"Breath through it, just like last time, dont push I am telling you, DONT PUSH." Stephan could see from Talon's scrunched up face and how he shifted his legs that he was succumbing to the urge. If the head of the baby pressed down any further the blood circulation would once again be cut, the sweelling would only continue, if not worsen. He patted on Talon's face trying to remind him of what he needed to do. "Dont push Talon, this would be very serious if you pushed. Breath and pant through this."

[secretsparrow]

He groaned loudly his breathing coming in quick gasps he needed to push he was sure of it, he had to get it out. His whole body tensed and yet somehow Talon managed to breath threw it gritting his teeth and relaxing again once the pain had let up the pressure didn't fade much though.

[bhdire8]

"Good job Talon. Very good job. Thank you...." stephan wiped away sweat from his own forehead, the moment just now was simply too nervous. "Talon i am proposing giving thr cervix some ice to press down thr swelling. It would be the fastest and hopefully make things progress. I dont think you can hold on to it for that much longer, suppressing your urges. Agree?" He asked tentatively, knowing Talon was probably at his wit's end.

[secretsparrow]

Talon nodded slowly, "Do it." He wasn't sure he would be able to hold back for much longer and was quite willing to try just about anything at this point if it meant he could just get the child out of him. He knew it would be uncomfortable but hopefully it would work.

[bhdire8]

Stephan adjusted Talon once again, lifting him up to lean over the ball, splitting his legs apart. "Holding yourself up alright? " he asked as he put some ice chips into a glove, then pull the glove on so he could push in. "Deep breath.... I will stay in even when a contraction hit so be prepared." He got in without much resistance, but Talon shuddered with the cool intrusion.

[secretsparrow]

Talon shifted slightly leaning over the ball, he was right it was uncomfortable. Still he did his best to relax leaning on the ball as he had been before untill he felt anther contraction grip him. His body urged him to push and he did his best to resist drawing in quick breaths. The fact that Stephan was pressing Ice to his cervix did nothing to ease the pressure.

[bhdire8]

Stephan had two fingers in, one with ice was pressing on the swell, and the other was right on the dilating opening. He could feel the baby's head pressing down, cutting all forms of circulation and peoducing that overwhelming urge to push for Talon. He thought a bit and decieed he could maybe risk it and started putting counterpressure on the child's head, forcing it back a little so that pressure on the cervix would be reduced.

[secretsparrow]

Talon gasped he could feel it, the baby being moved back slightly it helped a bit he found it a bit easier to breath threw the rest of the contraction. When it passed he leaned back on the ball for support.

[bhdire8]

With the contraction gradually past, the pressure of the head on his finger lessen. "You feeling better this way? How about we raise your whole bottom up to lessen the pressure?" Stephan suggested, still nudging the cervix with the ice in Talon.

[secretsparrow]

"Yea, it's better." He muttered doing as Stephan had suggested and changing positions leaning down more so his head was actually pointed more towards the floor resting on his arms.

[bhdire8]

The belly was low and oblong now. Stephan continued to apply a little pressure on the head, moving it fuether back in. He wouldnt have dreamt of doing such thing to Talon, eliminating all the progress so far, but that's the only way and he worried when the dilation had indeed been achieved in full, would Talon have difficulty pushing it all the way back out. "Just wait for me a bit and I will find something to support your belly.

[secretsparrow]

Talon groaned it was uncomfortable and he couldn't help but squirm slightly as he felt Stephan pushing the baby back a bit. He knew why he was doing it but couldn't help but groan slightly. Talon nodded and waited trying to be patient but it was hard the contractions weren't vary far apart and it was difficult to find any position that was comfortable.

[bhdire8]

Stephan felt all the ice had melted on his finger tip and he retreated his fingers, the baby's head was not stuck at the cervix as before, now.wholly enveloped back in the uterus. He maneuvered Talon do that his hip was on the birthball, then held his upper bodyon his lap to steady him. He could sway his hip that way. "Is this alright?" Stephan asked as he stacked pillows below Talon's back.

[secretsparrow]

Talon nodded slowly "Yea, thanks." he said softly, he was soon gripped by anther contraction causing him to lean foreword a bit. he groaned it was easier to breath threw now that that the child wasn't so low. but the contraction was still quite hard to deal with. This contraction was strong and didn't show signs of letting up right away.

[bhdire8]

Stephan held Talon close, wrapping his arm around him so that he could grab onto his arm when he leaned upward. The squirm and whimper told of how agonized Talon was and Stephan felt helpless. He prayed that this could pass quick, but it seemed not to be the case whwn the contraction went on for over a minute, Talon was so overwhelmed in pain his face flushed beet red. "Breath Talon, open your mouth and suck the air in."

[secretsparrow]

He gripped Stephan tightly finally managing to pull in a long breath of air as the contraction died away. he was breathing hard clinging to him. He was tired he could feel the baby coming down slowly just as it had before. "Water please.." He said after he had caught his breath.

[bhdire8]

Stephan got him the glass and helped him sit up a bit to sip it. He offered an energy bar and asked him. "No more urge to push now right? Tell me when that feeling resurfaced." He tug on tight on Talon, getting close to him and kissed his sweaty face. Reaching over for the oil, he gently started rub in gentle circle of Talon's opening. It was said to be effextive in preventing tearing, and Stephan thought it might be time for that preparation.

[secretsparrow]

Talon shook his his head sipping the water and taking a few bites of the energy bar. He smiled lightly up at Stephan glad he was here with him, he wouldn't have been abel to do this alone. He thought back to how quick the twins birth had been, It was nothing like this. A minute of rest and anther contraction took hold, it came fast catching him by surprise he let out a cry of pain before remembering to breath.

[bhdire8]

Stephan held tight on Talon's hand, letting him squeeze it as hard as he could. "Yes you are doing well, pant judt like that, get the air in for you and for the baby, that's it." Stephan encouraged Talon and put a hand on his highly raised belly, which was as hard as a rock now. He put little kisses on Talon, his eyes red from the pain and he couldnt even utter anything. "Yes just a bit more, do not fight the pain but try to go with the flow. You will be relieved soon."

[secretsparrow]

Talon groaned loudly as the baby descended again rocking his hips slightly the pain let up like before he took a moment to rest before the next contraction began, where they really only a minute apart? They were strong normally pretty long, as the next one started Talon's eyes went wide he could feel the pressure starting to return.
