tete-a-tete

the bundle of…screams and soiled diaper has arrived! whooopee!

let me try to recall D-Day and the night before…

i was told to fast after 12midnight on 24 May. so my kind husband has decided before all the ordeal began, we should feast first.

nothing beats whampoa hokkien mee. we settled for second best lah, singapura was closed that night sigh…

now you see it, now you don’t kekeke so satisfying!

we checked into the hospital (ward 42, Post Operative Area) at 7.30am after we checked out from fragrance hotel.

i was feeling sian, knowing that its gonna be c-section and i was feeling hungry already, although it was only 6 hours ago i had my feast haha

shortly, i changed into the pretty pink robe, the inside white dress is totally BARE BACK! cool huh…i was given a dose of ultra sour thing to drink with only a few drops of water to run it down, yucks hated it! when my time is near, i got a hair cut DOWN THERE ha ha…i told the nurse ‘please shave nicely ok?’ i just needed some entertainment ok?!

shortly a doctor by the name of, surprise surprise, VICTORIA, came and check me and my tummy and said i’m ready to go. ahhhh…so scary…

and finally after my bikermice gave me an encouraging smile at the entrance of the theatre (not explanade), i was whisk off for the op with the same question ask many million time …

‘what’s your name?’

‘you ic number is…’

‘any allergies?’

c-section is not as easy as natural birth. not that i’ve gone thru a natural to compare but its definitely not painless or i’m smiling thru it eventhough i’m more prepared for it this time. anyway its undescribable lah, so i’ll spare you the details. go youtube and search for c-section if you dear to watch. KK didn’t allow husband to be inside with me so no video from us.

so finally after about an hour (victoria only took 15mins, don’t why hers so fast) dorothy was yanked out. after i watch some of the video online then i know what they meant, ‘we can see the head already’

this is dorothy

this is victoria…

so different hor!

dorothy face round round, victoria face long long
dorothy hair thick thick, victoria’s hair wiry and sparse

both are beautiful in their own ways.

i was hoping to have more then 2 kids, but while they were yanking and pulling and giving me all the ‘you will feel a little pressure’ (my a**!!) i say to myself in the midst of singing ‘my Jesus, my Saviour…’ i will never go thru another c-section again! NEVER! so i guess i’ll stop at 2 until the time i’ve lose my mind and get pregnant again ha ha…if you’re reading this, remind me everyday that i said i’ll stop at 2. if i get pregnant, its your fault!

everything else was fine. i was eager to see dorothy unlike victoria. i didn’t wanna see her till 24hours later. i was walking faster. had so much milk…see the precious colestrum!

the golden juice!

i wasn’t given food immediately, so hungry i even ate sor-da-pia which i hate most! see the lady in blue at the background? she squeeze my breast like squeezing orange for juice. its such a love-hate-realtionaship with the ‘lactation consultant’. my breast was so full, that i felt it was pressing on my heart and i can feel milk up to my chest (i am so not joking!) anyway, as you’re reading this now, my breast is seasoned already after all the pain and bleeding (yes, bloody show i tell you!)

dorothy is sleeping on a bouncer beside me as i’m typing now…ahh bliss…not for long! she’s gonna scream very soon and i smell like a fish ha ha…and i haven’t even tell you about confinement, which i didn’t follow at all. all the best to my old age.

hello everyone!

i’ve finally arrived! i was yanked out on Friday, 23 May 2008 at 11.39am at KK by cutting my mummy up…poor mummy, she has to go thru the same ordeal all over again. although she’s more prepared for the butchering, but all the side effects just cannot be ignored…but God is good, we are both healthy and happily putting on weight now (yes, my mother is also putting on weight ha ha…)

hope to receive all your hugs and kisses soon…
