birth story of Reyes Lim

and so... Dr Choo says 小小宝 is getting bigger and would've definitely hit more than 3Kg by birth, so we were to decide if we would want a planned csect instead of VBAC. 

she gave us 3dec-10dec to choose from and hence after seeking ah gong's opinion, we decided on sun 6dec, if things doesn't happen naturally on his own. :)


on 5thdec mummy and daddy spent quality time with raynor gor gor, tucked him to sleep before showering and head to the hospital. after all the admission at the conceige, we head up to level 5, ward 506.

thereafter we were given orientation by the nurse and then the nurse monitor 小小宝's heartbeat, a good 150.... the nurse took a long time to look for the heartbeat cos 小小宝 was v active keep moving. lol

and so we rested, mummy couldn't sleep well and at slightly past 5:30am was woken up and asked to insert the saline water to help mummy pass motion. 

after which mummy went back to rest and then nurse came in at 8am to test mummy's blood glucose level which was 3.6mmol so nurse was quite worried and called Dr Choo to see what they should do. but Dr Choo says it's ok she will give me glucose drip after op. :)

at 8:45am nurse came and push mummy down to the OT. at the OT checks after checks then mummy was pushed in with the aneathetist Dr Ong yiling and Dr choo... they both assured me that it's gonna be fast... 

so epidural was inserted and soon Dr Choo started the surgery. at 0946hrs we heard Dr Choo says baby's out and there we go hearing our little miracle's cry for the first time. mummy teared.

carried little Reyes in my arms and mummy couldn't believe u are here right in my arms already. 

mummy and daddy love u so much!
