Life Begins

THE DAY has finally arrived. I was sleeping soundly when at 6.30am, I suddenly felt the warm & moist home which I was living for the past 9 mths getting colder & colder. I feel tat I can't swim anymore!! The waterbag has burst!!
However, mummy & daddy still take their own sweet time & even had time to make prata for breakfast before Ah Gong drive us to hospital during the early morning rush hour. Mummy worry about of dripping water & blood all over the car tat she brought a towel to sit on.
We reach hospital at 7.45am & mummy's cervix is already 1.5cm dilated. I can feel the pressure building up around me but mummy doesn't feel any pain. Wat a strong mummy!!However, she still go ahead with epidural cos she doesn't wanna regret later when it's too late.
Then it's waiting & waiting & more waiting while daddy reads the newspaper lying on the comfy massage chair. Soon, daddy is fast asleep. Mummy keeps herself busy by watching cable TV which is showing disasters documentary. The midwife comments mummy being weird, but
mummy says it's interesting. I hope I'll become like mummy when I grow up too!
