Daddy left the house at 5am for Ipoh to perform Cheng Meng <\/em>(All Souls Day)<\/em>\u00a0offerings to his late father and grandparents yesterday.\u00a0 We stayed at home.\u00a0 I slept in with the kids until almost 8am.\u00a0 After the gals finished their milk, we all walked to a nearby Indian restaurant to pack some food back for lunch.\u00a0 Whilst waiting for our roti canai, tosei and chicken curry, I ordered my favorite teh-C tarik (pulled tea with evaporated milk, minus the condensed milk and sugar).\u00a0 I also bought some nyonya kuih for breakfast.\u00a0 I know kuihs are not a\u00a0healthy choice but\u00a0the gals and I love them and I allow us to eat them\u00a0once or twice a week.<\/p>\n

After breakfast, I finally\u00a0packed my hospital bag.\u00a0 There weren’t many things to pack and I was\u00a0done in under half an hour\u00a0or maybe I’m already a pro in this, after having gone through 2 c-sections.\u00a0 As I was packing, especially\u00a0the baby’s clothes, I kept having a flood of emotions.\u00a0 I just can’t believe that in 1.5 week’s time, I will be a mother of 3 kids.\u00a0 I just don’t know how I am going to cope.\u00a0 As it is now, my 2 kids are already driving me bonkus all the time.\u00a0 But I believe God will not put me in a situation\u00a0that I\u00a0can’t handle.\u00a0 I believe God will help me out and will not let me drown.\u00a0 I also wondered how my baby will look – will she be pretty, will she be perfect, will she be fair or dark, will she have dimples just like Alycia and Sherilyn, will she have big eyes like Alycia,\u00a0will her kidneys be alright?\u00a0 Will my confinement lady drive me up the wall just like my previous CL?\u00a0\u00a0I also felt chills running down my body\u00a0when I think of myself in the OT again, waiting for the anesthetist to come and administer the spinal cord anesthetic on me.\u00a0 That is something that I fear the most as it is really painful and frightening….. \u00a0frightened that should the anesthetist\u00a0administer the wrong dosage or at the wrong place, I’ll be finished.\u00a0 I also kept thinking of the immense pain I’ll be experiencing again when I\u00a0get out of bed to walk after the c-section.\u00a0 I just felt soooo terribly worried and scared\u00a0yet excited, all at the same time.<\/p>\n
