Chapter 56.-Giving Birth-
Sally kept her serenity as she parked on the hydraulic lift. Zoë flipped the switch to lift the table up just a few feet so that she could have a good inspection of Sally from below. There was a very prominent bulge by the entrance of the birth canal, an indication that the baby's hood was pushing against it. "Well, yes, you are ready girlfriend. If all goes well, which I'm sure it will, we will have a little racecar here shortly." Zoë said to Sally. "Has Lightning been called" "Yes, he has" Sally said, "He's on his way now, I can guarantee he's totally freaking out." Just then, Lightning raced in with a panicked look on his face. "Relax Lightning, Sally is only in the first stage labor, it will be a while before the baby arrives" Zoë said. For the next several hours nothing extraordinary occurred. Periodically Sally would get off the lift and drive around the inside of the hospital. In an attempt to relieve the ever increasing pressure on her birth canal. Lightning readily at her side, a lot calmer than he was a little while ago. Throughout the day, Sly and Charlie came and went to keep Sally company and to keep Lightning from completely freaking out. Outside the hospital, Lightning parked and looked up at the sky with a sigh. He couldn't believe how close Sally was to having the baby. He was excited, but he was both scared for Sally and jubilant that he was going to be a father, something that he has been dreaming about since he learned Sally was pregnant. Just last night, Sally had let him feel the baby kicking.
Ten hours later: Sally was nearing the end of stage one of labor and she grew increasingly restless. Her contractions increased in strength so did the discomfort they caused. Hunter parked herself next to Sally and let her lean on her as much as she needed to while encouraging to her to breathe through the pain. Lightning was at her other side lending his fatherly support. Periodically Zoë or Jackie would check her with an internal examination. The exams were uncomfortable enough when she wasn't pregnant, now in labor they were painful. The internal examinations were necessary to determine the baby's position and how far she had dilated. Sally was secretly beginning to wish her fantastic bedroom romps with Lightning had never happened. An another four hours: Lightning was ushered out to the waiting room, as Hunter and Zoë prepped Sally for delivery, he would be allowed back in as soon as they got Sally settled. Sylvester stayed with Lightning to keep him company. Charlie was sitting on Sly hood watching cartoons on his I-pad. Lightning paced, shaking like Mater when he heard the story of the Ghostlight. Sly gave Lightning a pat on the side with his wheel, and Lightning looked over to him, just smiling. "I know what you are gong thigh" Sly said "I was a nervous wreck when Hunter went into labor." Lightning didn't say a thing, he wasn't sure if he opened his mouth, if he would scream or squeal. Lightning was full of mixed emotions. Charlie, with his eyes half shut from sleep, watched as Lightning drove back and forth, back and forth. Lightning stopped dead in his tracks when he heard Sally scream. "Lightning" Jackie asked with a smile. "Follow me." Before Lightning left, Sly put Charlie in to his carrier and "If you need me, I'll be here."
Just as Lightning pushed past the delivery room door, there was a loud scream of his wife. Lightning entered the delivery room and rushed to a tired-looking Sally. Tears in his eyes, he kissed her as if it was their last, just as he always did. He could hear soft beeps from the monitors that tracked the baby's engine rhythms, as well as Sally's. Sally's contractions had increased tenfold. She was now in second stage of labor. Sally had an I.V. started and she had been given a mild sedative that only dulled the pain minutely. Sally asked Zoë for some more pain killers. "I can't do that, to completely alleviate your pain means risking your baby being born heavily sedated, or even fatally drugged…" Zoë said. Just then a strong labor pain hit and Sally had sank completely against the lift, moaning in pain. "Lightning I need you to park next to Sally. Lightning edged towards the lift and halted. "Doc?" Zoë noticed the hesitation "What is it, Lightning? Sally needs you at her side." "I faint at the sight of oil!" he confessed sheepishly. Zoë's face went blank and she blinked before saying gently, "If you get on that side of the lift I promise you won't see any." "O-OK," Lightning stuttered and jumped to Sally's side. Hunter had placed a wet towel across Sally's roof. Zoë was under the lift, watching and counting. "Excellent Sally, breathe in, now... push… push….push" She coaxed as Sally did so and strained with all of her might. Sally gritted her teeth in agony before letting out a loud cry, then falling back to the lift panting. A major contraction suddenly hit. Sally could not hold in a scream of pain as she trembled against Lightning and Hunter.
At this point Sally was totally naked and she didn't care that everyone in the room was treated to a view of her 'girl parts'. With every nerve in her body focused solely these awful contractions the last thing she was preoccupied with was who saw what. Lightning watched Sally's undercarriage undergo a minimal change in shape and identified it as a contraction. Just as he predicted, Sally suddenly shrieked as she curled upwards, involuntarily bearing down. The contraction automatically forced Sally to start pushing whether or not she was prepared to do so. It was like her womb had mind of its own, focused solely on evicting the baby. Lightning took to caressing her hood. Hunter took a position at Sally's rear, gingerly putting one of her back tires in a birthing stirrup. Jackie, put the other rear tire in the other birthing stirrup. Both Hunter and Jackie, stroked and rubbed Sally's rear axle, which was to helping Sally to relax. Sally drifted into a realm of brief solace because, their rubbing and massaging her lower half was soothing, as was Lightning's hood rub. Zoë had situated parked herself between Sally's rear axles ready to deliver the baby, her front tires were covered up with sterile coverings.
Sally's brief hiatus was rudely interrupted by a harsh contraction, one so strong that it sent her screaming in pain. "Push Sally," Zoë instructed. Sally was getting very tired. She had been in labor all day, and the last two hours she had been in this 'pushing' stage. "Don't give up Sally; the baby is almost here." Hunter said into Sally's ear as Sally collapsed to the lift. Sally was sobbing. "Lightning I'm scared…" panted the baby blue Porsche. "Shhhh... It is ok, The baby's coming and it will all be over soon" Lightning caressed her tire and kissed her fender," He shut his eyes, feeling the tears running down his face, He loved that they were having a baby together, but the pain that she was in was tearing him apart "I can't do this!" Sally gasped, "I can't no, no way" "Sally you have too." Hunter said "You have to dig deep!" "I can't, I can't" "YES you can!" Hunter said, "You have too! now PUSH!" Sally's moaning and groaning turned into shrieking Zoë counted the long ten-second push. Lightning shut his eyes as Sally screamed. "Everything's going to be alright, you're doing great Sally" Zoë comforted Sally. Sally began moaning again as she felt another contraction coming. "Come on...Push." Hunter cooed sympathetically with her. Sally let out a series of strangled gasps and heaving breaths before bearing down with all her might.
Sally started to feel a stinging sensation where the infant's hood was emerging from the birth canal. The stinting increased around her opening. "OWWW!" The laboring Porsche cried out. "I know. I know. It's your baby's hood coming out out." Zoë said and began to firmly knead the supple metal around her opening that encased the infant's emerging hood, which was more visible by the second. OWWW!" Sally shrieked when Jackie took over kneading, while Zoë tended to guiding the infant's hood out. Hunter grasped one of her fount tires and softly comforted her. "It's okay Sally; just breathe and push." she told her. Take a breath and push for me." Zoë instructed her sweetly. The urge to bear down was strong and she inhaled before bearing down with all her might. As the mass grew near Sally's entrance it, the pain intensified. The baby's hood was suddenly pushed halfway out. Sally arched, letting out a sudden shriek of agony. "OWWW!" she pleaded. Sally attempted to retract her rear wheels backwards to clamp shut against the throbbing source of pain. The birthing stirrups held her back wheels steadfast.
"Alright Sally! Just one more big push!" Zoë said. Lightning looked back over where the Zoë and Jackie were working, and found… a bunch of…. things…. Just…. Sticking out… and… He started to feel a tingly sensation causing him to slowly start to pass out….Lightning quickly looked away, feeling himself starting to regain his strength. Lightning focused on a wall, trying to focus on one spot. Zoë and Jackie were encouraging Sally to look into the refracted mirror over her where she could see her baby being born. Sally shut her eyes momentarily then reopened them, focusing again on the image of her baby's hood. Everyone all saw the middle part of Sally's under carriage suddenly constrict. She suddenly jerked from it, gasping desperately. She let out a piercing yelp. "One, two, three, four, c'mon you doing it! And deep breathe and relax! See? You're doin' it Push! C'mon!" Hunter encouraged. Sally pushed again. " The baby is almost out! you' doin good." Zoë coaxed Sally. Just when Lightning didn't think Sally could take anymore, he heard some sort of fluid pour on to the floor. "Congratulations, it's a girl. " Zoë said.
