It is almost 3.5 months since Richie joined playschool in our native place. We can see tremendous change in him. He can sing a lot of nursery rhymes with proper pronounciation. His favourite songs are "Humpty, Dumpty sat on a wall, Jack and Jill, Johnny, Johnny yes papa, Incy Wincy Spider, ABCD song etc.". He also does picture coloring, paper craft, finger painting etc. He can recognize and read capital and small alphabets and numbers till 20. He can speak in long sentences with proper tense. He knows names of everyone in the family and sometimes calls us out with our names instead of mama and dada ;).
Sometimes he getz lazy to go to school, but once he is there he is lost in his world. He comes home happy and tells a lot of stories of school and what he has done.
Birth of our second angel - How it all happened
Just the last week I had written that I am in my ninth month. And today I am already holding our dear lil one in my arms. He came 2 weeks before the due date. As I was saying, he/she doesn't follow any trend. He tries to take his own decisions.
Last Saturday, I started getting slight pain at 4am in the morning. I felt that maybe itz just that the baby was uncomfortable when I was sleeping and hence the pain. But then the pain started happening every 30 mins and I was feeling like running to the loo. From my last pregnancy experience I knew something big was coming up, but thought maybe itz a false alarm considering it was just 8.5 months. Then at 6.30am, I felt slight water coming out. I felt maybe thatz the signal. I woke up my hubby who was fast asleep and explained to him the situation. I had not packed my hospital bag thinking there is still time. So I hurried up doing it. The contractions had become regular by now.
As there was noises in the room, Richie woke up, though it was unusual for him to wake up so early. But he has a sixth sense. The moment we told "Mama's stomach is paining", he said "Mama, baby paining, going to doctor? Change my clothes". We were surprised. Without telling him he already knew what was about to come and he did not want to miss the adventure. ;)
I phoned the doctor and he told me to see him immediately as he was afraid the baby maybe in the breech as was shown in last week's report.
We hurried off to the hospital. After all the hospital formalities, I was admitted to the hospital. By now the contractions had become regular and strong.
Yes the baby was on itz way to meet us. After the water bag burst, I was taken to the labor room. Since it was my second delivery, it seemed a bit easier just as the doctor had mentioned. After some good efforts by the doctors and me, we got to hear the first cries of our baby who almost shook the hospital.
In all this, I forgot to mention what Richie was doing. When the contractions started, Richie was holding my hand as he could see mama in pain. Can you believe that? Since Dada had to step out for a little while, he was prompt in taking care of mama. Then I was taken to the labor room. When he heard the baby, he said "baby crying" and then happily and tired from all the activities, fell fast asleep.
