The arrival of Reyden & Reyes

2nd of Mar 2007

The arrival of Reyden & Reyes.

1am: Admitted to hospital.Was in the delivery ward for 15 hours after Reyden's amniotic bag burst. No contractions, no pain, nothing & the gynae finally decided to do a c-section before infection sets in.
4.30pm: Pushed into the operating theatre for the 1st time of my life. Almost fainted when they told me I'll be conscious throughout the operation. Saw the nurses, anaesthetist & my gynae thru their preparation work & before I know it, I heard Reyden's 1st cry & Reyes' 1st cry 1 min later.
7.30pm: Transferred to the normal ward but both of them weren't with me. They were in the special care nursery as they are premature babies. Felt kinda sad when I heard the other babies crying beside their mummies in the wards ...
I was discharged 2 days later but both of them had to stay in the hospital. Reyden was due to bad jaundice & had to go thru the phototherapy treatment & observation. Reyes was due to underweight. She would only be allow back when her weight reaches 2kg.
