TK turns 3 and gets to sing birthday song, make birthday wishes & blow the candles at family gathering..for the LAST TIME

Does anyone still remember that day when TK was expected to arrive in this world 2y 11m 3w 5d ago.. but didn't?

And the decision to go for scheduled induced delivery..

and the prearrangement for a companion to the gynae..including the regular check-ups..

And having to wait for something to happen in 2hr after lunch..but didn't?

And had to be re-induced and sent home..to wait for the waterbag to burst..

And happened just after dinner..

And a thorough shower and cleared bowels before taking a 6 to 8-min bus ride to the hospital

With a contraction every 10min..till it was few min..

And walking was even more unbearable & slower..after an hour or so..

And going through the subsequent contractions trembling..

And hoping for the whole episode to end soon.

And the pushing, and breathing, and going through the whole process with TK Daddy cheering..

with 2 nurses assisting by the bedside..

Finally felt a big lump of 'poo' coming out after a 4 to 5-hr ordeal..

And a greyish lil' newborn infant was brought to me for confirmation of sex of baby..

And TK Daddy taking photographs as best as he could..

And having to drink room temperature water after delivery even when TK Mummy doesn't want..

And wondering why no warm water..

Just so to urinate successfully, if not, may need insertion..

And the decision for the type of formula milk to feed newborn (NB)..

And dreaded to urinate as it hurts a little..

And TK Daddy visiting at the ward daily after work..

In short, it's not just about singing birthday song, making birthday wishes &/or blowing the candles..

it's TK Mummy Day too..

是的 宝贝，

你不一定吃到生日蛋糕、棉线鸡蛋

但孩子啊 在这个特别的日子里，爸爸妈妈想对你说 爱你 祝你

母难日快乐！
