Till then, update again :)

Inez is 3kg!

Brought baby Inez to KK for the jaundice check up yesterday. Blood was taken from her little hand for the liver test, didn't dare to look when the nurse prick her little hand with the needle (the needle is almost the same thickness as baby's vein!), I left the room while hubby was inside with baby. Within seconds, Inez cries was loud~~~

Went back into the room to carry baby, her face was as red as a lobster and there's tears around her eyes *heart pain*. Waited 2 hours for the result and her liver function is normal, no need to go for checks anymore!

Also, baby Inez weight 3kg already! And, I'm back to my pre-pregnancy weight, 45kg!!! Hohoho~~~~

Little updates...

It has been a long time since I last update my blog. My 'die-hard' fan (she know who she is!!) neck should be as long as a giraffe already.

Ok, just a little update of what I had done...

1) Still doing my confinement... another 11 days to go. Almost everyday, the girls will receive my 'ranting' sms... *Just let me throw at you girls ok? Lian and Mei, you will have turn to throw back to me*

2) Fall sick (again) during the 2nd week of my confinement... Down with fever, runny nose and cough. Lack of sleep? Didn't eat well?? The girls know why...

3) Had completed my 7 days post natal massage from Babies Bellies, at least a little time for me to relax during the massage.

4) Preparation for baby's full month is almost done. Date will be on the 17th Oct, Saturday. Venue is Mainland Tropical Fish Farm. Buffets and cakes already ordered, still waiting for SIL to get the banner done.

5) Birth registration, baby bonus and CDA account also done, just waiting for the government reply back on the CDA account.

6) Still struggling to breast feed but things start to get better compare the first 2 weeks..

That's just some update of myself.

Here's little update of baby.

1) Name of baby is Lam Jia Xuan Inez

2) Baby weight 2.430kg at birth. 3 days later, brought her to polyclinic for check up, she's weight 2.530kg. 100gm within 3 days :) Another check up on day 14 of her life, she's weight 2.850kg and again 2.970kg 2 days later...

3) Got to bring baby back to KK for jaundice check up tomorrow as checks from polyclinic shows that baby jaundice is still on high level even after day 14, so it's better to refer back to hospital. Hope everything fine.

4) Baby Inez never fail to be on time for her feeds... she's just like an alarm clock. The only difference is that, we no need to set the timing.

Ok, end of the updates... need to go bathe and wash hair already (yesh yesh~~)

Another update will mostly be after full month celebration.

The Big Day

The Arrival Of My 2nd Princess

Scheduled to be induced on Sunday 20/09/2009 6am at KKH.

6.30am - Reached KKH, lead into delivery room and changed into delivery gown.
6.45am - Antibiotic Drip for GBS and the Induce Drip to start contraction.
6.50am - Doc KT Tan came to broke my water bag and checked on dilation, still 3cm.

7.15am - Contractions kick in every 2 minutes, trying to endure.

7.40am - The pain is getting unbearable and the nurse suggested me to get take Epidural as the pain will get worst as they gonna increase the drip.

8.00am - The anaesthesia came and explained the side effects of taking epidural and I signed the consent form. Sitting very still, the jab was inserted into my spine. All I felt is the electric shock as the med went down my spine. Within minutes, I felt numbs on my lower body. The epidural is taking it effect as I start to shiver and itch (a common side effect of the epidural).

*During this time, the next delivery room lady was screaming and it's scaring the hell out of me!*

8.30am - The nurse came to check on me, 4cm dilated. Still got 6cm to go~~~

9.30am - Starting to feel pain again and I can feel like the baby is pushing down to my pelvis bone as well as the feeling of pooing whenever the contraction kick in. I called for the nurse and she checked again, 5cm dilated. She asked the anaesthesia to come and check on my epidural.

10.00am - Anaesthesia came and increased my epidural dosage. It takes about 15mins for the epidural to take the effects.

10.30am - Nurse came to check again, fully dilated! 10cm!! Oh my god~~ If only I know that it will dilate so fast, I would have endure the pain and won't want to increase the dosage!! Doc Tan came at the same time and was surprised that my 1st stage of labor is faster then she expected. I'm being asked to push whenever there's contraction but I can't as there's no feeling so Doc Tan switched off my epidural! :(

11.00am - After trying to pushed for a good half hour, Doc Tan decided to let me rest as my pushing is not good and it will only waste my energy if I continue to push.

11.30am - Doc Tan together with a midwife and a staff nurse came to help me with the pushing again. This time I can feel a little of the contraction. While pushing, the midwife put her hands onto my tummy and she tried to help me by pushing my tummy (I got muscle ache around my tummy area after that!). Doc Tan and nurses keep telling me: Just take 1 deep breathe and 1 long push and your baby is out! Within minutes, I saw Doc Tan use the scissor and 'snap' me and the next thing I know was MY BABY IS OUT!!

After that Doc Tan continue with the delivery of my placenta, asked if I want to keep it! Then start pressing my tummy to drained out my excess blood and also 'sew' me back...

While me just lied there flat, energy-less and watching hubby take photos of baby and mms our friends...

That's the delivery process of my 2nd princess.
