My 2nd child - Jae-Drien

Now is the time to blog about Jae-Drien. When Ker-Vie was 2 years old, we planned to have a sibling for her. After a month of trying, the gynae confirmed that HM was conceived. So from that time onwards, HM went for monthly check-up, until the final month which was the 9th month, the gynae told us that HM got a slightly high blood pressure. He advised HM to induce a week before the actual due date.

On 28th Apr 05, this time no more watching movie, early morning we get ready and reached Pantai Hospital, Bangsar at 9am. As usual, after the registration, we headed to labour ward and HM gone thru the necessary checked and the nurse put the medication into the vagina to bring on the contractions.

Few hours later, HM started experiencing minor contractions. In the evening, she was in such great pain that she has to rely on the gas for pain relief. HM didn’t asked for an epidural. When Hui Min has fully dilated, Dr Jeremy prepared to welcome the baby. This time HM faced the same situation due to the baby's size; Dr Jeremy recommended the use of the vacuum to assist in easing the baby out of the birth canal. After a few pushed with the helped of the vacuum, Jae-Drien was finally born, healthy and perfect at 4.06kg. He was heavier than KV by 0.26kg. After Jae-Drien out of the birth canal, Dr. Jeremy passed the sterilized scissors to me and asked whether I want to cut the cord, I said ‘YES’ and he guided me where to cut. It was the good & memorable experience for me.
