this morning i woke up at 4.30am to go the loo... then when i lie down at about 4.45am... i felt many strong beats in my baby belly! I got a bad scare cos baby #2 had such rapid heartbeat that was so constant and strong then i check my book it says baby in distress cos mit be the cord around the neck i freaked out! Then she didnt kick or move after the next 15mins and i called the emergency line to speack to the nurse and she adviced me to head down for a checkup... we head to TMC, leaving home at 5ish!
dumped a few more items into the bag and i got the milk ready for baby R, as baby R drank i talked to her telling her i will be leaving to see doctor to check on baby #2 and she actually acknowledge and nodded her head as i spoke to her... gave her a kiss and i left. Did baby R know what baby #2 was coming? She might! she actually started climbing back up on the big bed half way thru the nite to squeeze really close to me!
daddy on the other hand who slept 3+am was awoken by me cos i needed help to the loo cos my foot was numb then next i told him my worries... when i told daddy what the nurse adviced... we got prep and woke my inlaws up to inform them... We got to the hospital 5+ and by 6am, Gx was told to get registration done cos contraction had started and was getting regular.
my gynae came in late and he had already had 2 scheduled C-sec op and i was told to do mine tommorrow! i told him the strong beats i had in the morning and he checked i wasnt dilating yet and suggested he can do an evening op for me cos he needed to attend to his patients before my op... had to wait till he was done with his 1st op and we confirmed our 4.30pm scheduled op!
i asked for food cos i was starving! given 2 slice of toast with butter and strawberry jam and a mini pot of milo and no food after 11am! then i was brought to my room to rest. the internet access was off and i was very eager cos i needed to settle a few online buy payments and of cos if possible update as closely as possible! thank goodness the IT guy got my stuff solved before the op!
nurses came in at different timing to shave me, then i was given something called Fleet to make sure i clear my bowels before the op... Gx at this time has gone home to pack his bag... he came back with our little gal baby R, all dressed up ready to attend the party of her twin yiyis! Yup my gal will share the same bdae as my twin cousins! its crazy and i am having stronger contractions as i type now! Took some pics with little fairy baby R before she left for the party... my mil will follow her together with my mum, bro and sil C who will help me watch her at the party!
the party should have started and i sure hope baby R enjoys herself before dropping by after the party to see her meimei!when i called home earlier to check on her, baby R told me she wants to see baobao! before she left, she blew me a kiss... think she is feeling all confuse, excited but she knew i couldnt follow her to the party... waving goodbye to me... think the book on baby sister that we borrowed from the library helped her understand the progress of receiving her new baby sister very well.
soon the nurses will pop in to ask me questions and then get me ready to be wheeled down to the theatre... gx is now napping! he's trying to catch as much a wink he can! i joked that the nurses may not be able to wake him up! he is excited yet haha scared! cos once baby # 2 is out... we will start our busy parenting life to a newborn 24/7!
baby R didnt engage the 1st time round and this time, i went thru contractions and its kinda scary to play this waiting game as time to time feeling the tighness in the tummy! Also when the nurse and the gynae checked if i had dilated... it was super painful when they really push their finger really deep to check if i started to dilate! for now i can't load any pics but we sure took some pics thru the morning...
am i ready? sure i was caught off guard but i was prepared that baby chooses their own dates and was prep if she decided to come early but she sure scared me with the beats and no movemment in the morning... nurse jus came in with a salted gasy drink and she say soon they coming in to bring me down!
so this is to be continued... prob tomolo!
