dear mummies & daddies,
sorry i was unable to keep track with the forum as i was kept very busy with my gal. as i dun have a CL, i look after my gal round the clock so its very exhausting. hard on my hb too cos he helped me look after till ard 3am every night & he still need to go to work. my maid helps with my confinement, washing of bb's stuffs etc. my gal has ongoing jaundice for 2wks+ alr, praying her jaundice would go away soon & there's no underlying prob with her persistent jaundice. she was mostly formula-fed cos i had very little milk. only managed to express btwn 5-20ml each time. so far to date she had only managed to drink abt 110ml of BM. T_T she also has colic wind in her tummy & cries very often. unlike other infants, she dun sleep much & would stay awake either most of the day or night lor. really tiring to look after her cos she dun sleep after her feeding.
just a mini birth story here.
15jul @ TMC.
we admitted ard 9 am for my cesarean section scheduled for 1pm. we booked for a 4-bedded & we got a free upgrade to a 2-bedded. we were prepared to get a 2-bedded if the free upgrade is not avail cos din want to share the rm with too many mummies. mine is the last rm at the end of a corridor & we were told that ours is the bigger-sized 2-bedded rm. the mummy next bed is also under woody & her cesarean section is right after mine @ 2pm.
1230pm - i was abt to be wheeled in alr. started to panic cos hb went for lunch & had not came back yet. luckily on the way out, managed to see him.
1245pm - was told woody will be late for 15mins. saw the doc gg to administer the epi for me - dr. YC Lim. he was very nice & reassuring. he kept talking to me so i was less nervous. he helped me draw 3 tubes of blood for the SCBB donation & administered epi for me. both are pretty painless.
120 - 126pm - very shortly after the epi was administered, the next thing i knew, woody was telling my hb, "quick, take pic, take pic" & my gal was in my arms thereafter. i was a little taken aback by how fast the c-sect took. i was still waiting to be cut up & i thought it would take a while. lol.
