Mother of Two Boys

This is just a short update but yeah.. Malas, tapi nak update jugak because it is not fair for bub numero duo not to get at least one post dedicated to him.

Dah la masa pregnant pon tak write anything about him. Pity baby.. hehe

The name is Khaleed Adrian. Still following the K and A initial of his dad. I like it a lot because who wants to sit at the back of the hall during ALL major exams in his life like me? No.. No S initial for my kids, please.

He was delivered way earlier than planned because I couldn't feel his kick on 2nd Ramadhan 2017.Tried to go to 3 clinics in Kluang, but "amazingly" no doctors were available to see me. I couldn't walk much either, so I just called it a day and wanted to try again tomorrow..  mere 10 steps will make me cry. So, on 3rd Ramadham my mother brought me to the hospital.

I thought the doctor will only say, "your baby just like to sleep" like his brother :P

However, within the first 20 minutes of CTG, the midwife ran to the gynae and few minutes after that all of them come to see me. They deliver the bad news that my baby heart rate was decelerating (whatever that means) and I could see that all the peaks in the graph was down peaks, not upright as what we normally see on TV. I break down. Hubby was somewhere in Klang Valley and I can't even speak to him on the phone. I passed the phone to the midwife who then explained everything to the ever-very-calm-daddy on the phone.

Hubby did not managed to arrive before the emergency c-section and I bawled my eyes out. The baby was delivered safe and sound few hours later. He was tangled with the umbilical cords, three times around the neck, hands and legs.. all limbs are tightly bound together. Oh, additional two almost-dead-knots on the cords too. How can it be like that? Nobody can explain it to me. That also explain the sudden lack of activity in my tummy.. Huhu..

He was born with low birth weight, prematurely at 2.03 kg. But, strong enough to fight jaundice and Alhamdulillah, he has no other issues. We were discharged to home soon and here I am, at day 41 still struggling to latch the baby who is too small for my boobs. 

He looks really alike with his elder brother, just few shades lighter. Pinkish and fair. No photos as for now because I am in the midst of changing my phone from the old Xperia to Huawei and most photos are still in transition.


Selamat Hari Raya!
