13.11.2007 ~ the day of your arrival...

mon cherie (my darling)...

this is the story of your birth...
mommy gotta cut short, otherwise not enuf space to write hor... hee hee...

your original EDD was 23 Nov and mommy decided from the beginning to have natural birth. but our plan is not God's plan... after months of gynae visits and scanning, it was confirmed that mommy must go for C-Section delivery due to 'placenta privia'. it was the only choice for the sake of our safety... and the gynae also advised to have you delivered earlier to prevent any potential accidents/risks.

It was a waiting game on 13 Nov…
waiting for day break… [mommy can't sleep just thinking about the C-Sect delivery.... ]
waiting to go to SGH… [so many things to bring over....feeling anxious...]
waiting to meet up with Cord Blood Bank personnel… [last minute decision...]
waiting for additional tests [busy day at the hospital... busy day for the staffs...]
waiting to check in [as the original delivery schedule in the morning was pushed back to late afternoon...bad service lah, SGH!!!]
waiting for friends to come over [too much time to kill… need a good chatting session to ease my nervouness... thanks Irena & May for popping over!!]
waiting for my turn to be wheeled into the operating theatre [aiyoh, so gan cheong, wana faint liao...]
waiting for your arrival… [nurse ask mommy to count to 5... one, two, threeee.... fuuueeerrr....zzzz....]

Finally at 4.45pm… everything falls into place… and indeed everything was worth waiting for… the first glance of your face, your first cry, your first everything… [daddy was super privileged to experienced all of them coz mommy was under GA and completely zonked out…]

welcome to the world... and into our lives... mon cherie…
we love you so... much and can't wait to spend the rest of our lives with you!
*** little episode on day 2 at the ward... ***
when daddy wheeled you to mommy's bed on day 2, mommy can't help but goes *muaks* *muaks* *muaks* *muaks* on your forehead and tiny chubby cheeks for missing out on your 1st day...
daddy: "dar, dun kiss baby so much lah, later you pass your germs to her...."
mommy: "wat you say??!!! i cannot kiss my own baby??!!!!"
daddy : "err... ok lah, just kiss a little bit hor..."
