Introducing Our New Bundle of Joy

Yes Yes! He's finally here, introducing Baby D.

Here's the birth story;
14th March: Abt 4:30pm was in the toilet and there i had it a bloody show. I thought it was the mucus plug as that point of time i wasn't sure of the difference. Started googling on mucus plug and hoe soon till delivery ... Apparently hours, days, weeks. Called the clinic as i wasn't sure what to do next. Sister Han gave me an appointment for the next morning 9am and to monitor for any contractions.

Drove over to Mum's to return the car and pick little R up. Arranged for hubby to pick us instead of driving home as i just wasn't sure... Felt excited yet worried.

On the way home i even had a drive through macs for supper. Had a quarter pounder with cheese, fries and and mango pineapple frappe. Even joked with hubby that this might be my last meal before delivery.

15th March 2013: 3am woke to head to the toilet as usual. This time something disn't feel right. Having on off cramps every 5 mins. Wasn't intense but i senses this was it. I knew what contractions felt like before so this was contractions.

3:30am: Woke the husband to get ready. Got mum to come over to baby sit sleeping Little R as well as ferry him to school that day.

4:30am: Checked into delivery ward. Placed under observation for about an hour. Dilated 2-3cm. Given enema to clear bowels the was moved to delivery suite room 3.

8:30am : Dr Tan arrived. Checked 2cm. Burst water bag and was offered breakfast. She mentioned still long way probably afternoon. This time i was a little smarter. Ordered the sandwiches for breakfast instead of the porridge as for no.1 i had porridge and by 6pm i was starving...

9:30am: Opted for epidural. Didn't even try the gas mask this time. Damn it was painful without the gas. Scream and shouted... Think the anestatist also scared of me.

11:15am : Started pushing and preparing for delivery. Could feel baby pushing down on my V. The pressure was a lot more compared to previous one as epidural was less dosage.

11:47am: DONE!!!
