Rachelle Ann Go recalls 'amazing birthing experience'

By Nherz Almo

Rachelle Ann Go remembers how she endured her long labor before giving birth to her son Lukas Judah.

On her Facebook post earlier, April 10, the Miss Saigon actress shared a photo of her wearing shades while in labor in the hospital. She even candidly captioned, "If the contractions are strong, make it fashion."

Then, Rachelle related her long labor journey, which had her doctors considered her to deliver via C-section.

She related, "My midwife said she'll give me an hour to push. If not, the doctors will have to examine me again and might do emergency CS.

"I said 'NO! I will do it in 15-20 mins!' It took me 18mins to push Lukas out!😅 Praise God! Tinodo ko na talaga ang pag-push 🤣

"My midwife was just incredible. It was just the 3 of us in the room(Martin, her & me)!

"What's amazing too is that Martin was assisting her during the delivery!👏🏼"

Despite the struggle, the 34-year-old singer-actress said she actually enjoyed each contraction.

Rachelle continued, "I cannot believe we did it! We kept praying for a miracle. It was a loooong labor...

"I was progressing really slowly but I was actually enjoying the contractions! LOL. Weird...But yeah I found myself saying YES to each contraction 😅

"The Holy Spirit just filled the room! We were praying and singing worship songs... Our first midwife started singing with us!

"I had such an amazing birthing experience!

"I was so scared of giving birth before but after going through it, I realized God made it possible for us to do this! My big take away is FAITH over fear. God will meet us at the level of our faith."

Rachelle and her husband, Martin Spies, welcomed Baby Lukas on March 26, 2021.

The couple tied the knot at a sunset ceremony in Boracay in April 2018.
