Well, I hope Dillon is enjoying himself being a kor kor to Kaith.

Dillon is trying to “cubit” Kaith’s rosy cheeks.

EDD: 7th July 2007
Actual due date: 3rd July 2007 (4 days earlier)

1st contraction: 12.30am (very mild), waited till 2.30am when contraction happened every 5 minutes interval.

Arrive at hospital: 4.00am (only dilated 2cm)

At 4.15am: After all the registration procedures, I was admitted to the ward, then hubby left (if only he knows he need to be back so soon, he would have just stay). Contraction pain is still manageable at this time.
At 4.45am: The contraction suddenly became so intensive, my whole body is shivering due to pain & I was cold sweating as well.Between 5.15am – 5.30am: Doctor said I was only 3cm dilated, baby’s head still quite high & she then decided to break my water bag & send me to labour room to induce.

At 5.37am: Admitted to the labour room & I immediately called hubby to come. (I have the call record that’s why I’m so certain of the time I was sent to labour room). Doctor checked & I was already 6cm dilated, & she decided to give me the drips. As she was preparing that, I felt a very strong urge to push and I was yelling to the doctor to have a look, she was also shocked to find that I’m already 10cm dilated & baby’s head can already be seen.

She & the nurses quickly prepared everything and I just can’t hold back anymore but to start pushing, without much effort (less than 5pushes), baby Kaith arrived to this beautiful world at 5.47am (yes, in just 10 minutes)

I’m proud that I’ve done it again, without any drugs (didn’t even have the time to inhale the gas ), without forceps or vacuum. But the only thing is that my hubby was not there to witness, even he has tried to rush there. (baby Kaith was too impatient to wait for her daddy….)

Compare with my 1st labour story when I delivered Dillon in Dec 05.

Hello all I’m back home, with my lil’ baby Kaith

Thanks to Huisia & Judy who has shared the news in their blogs, and those who have congrats me via sms, calls, or comments in my blog. Both mummy & baby is doing excellent.

It was a surprise for me that baby has arrived 4 days earlier than my EDD, Dillon was 4 days past the EDD last time. It all just happened so fast, too fast indeed. (Check out my labour story later….)

Anyway, I’ve now entered to a new chapter of my life & I’m looking forward to enjoy every bit of being a mother of two.

I’ve been tagged by both The New Parent & Lzmommy, these 2 blogs are great parenting blogs which I’ve always enjoyed reading. This tag is to share about 8 random facts about myself, well here we go:

1. I’m the youngest in my family, my sister & brother are 12 & 8 years older than me respectively.
2. My mum delivered me at age 42 & it was an “accident”.
3. I am a lazy person & hate to do any exercise.
4. I like eating & I like cooking as well, but I won’t do the dishes.
5. I like reading & writing too, esp. in Mandarin, I was Chinese educated since primary school.
6. Once I started to play any PC games, I’ll be hooked & will not stop playing until I accomplish the game missions.
7. I’m impatient and easily get annoyed over small matter but usually it won’t be long & I don’t keep it inside me.
8. My mood swings pretty often, I can be mad at this minute but in the next minute I’ll be ok already.

After revealing the facts about myself, I would now like to kepoh about the following blogger’s as well:
Cheryl Leong
Vivian Wong
Nottibee
Baby Shern

Hi hi I’m still around & baby still inside my tummy.

Anyway, I have started on leave today, as I wanted to get away from work & get myself ready for labour, which might just happen anytime this week.

It seems like I’m still carrying high & “lightening” hasn’t took place yet. But I have had some early signs of labour i.e. the show, diarrhoea & Braxton Hicks, which might indicate that labour is around the corner.

So during this “waiting period”, these are what I’ve planned to do:
1. To run through the checklist again & see if anything is missing or need to be prepared.
2. Eat whatever I wanted to & sleep well.
3. Spend more time playing & bonding with Dillon as I might not have much time for him later.
4. Play PC games, watch some dramas, do a bit of online chatting, check & reply emails.
5. Last but not least, update my blogs & finish up my tag homework.
