After yesterday killer paper which i will need a miracle to pass, I decided to declare today a No Study day..

Meaning its a all Wifey + Naomi day!

and today its Wifey Birthday!

Wifey, Thanks for being a huge part of my life!

To many years ahead!

Daddy! U r not in sch in the morning! Wooooo

Daddy, can you buy a pacifier that doesn't drop off!

Sun tan!

i think i'm becoming like any of those random dad...

Every night when I'm home, I'll tell wifey that Naomi is so cute...

that is even when she is crying away...

haha.....

Not feeling in the best of health recently..

Combination of Sun & Rain...

face mask on!

my pacifier DROP!

ok, one for daddy's camera!

and so these images greeted me as I reached home from sch..

:)

On another note, no daddy bonding time tonite.

My ever cool Dad

My 1st photo with Naomi

My wife, my hero!

random shot from a recent ROM which I think is pretty cute. :)

say cheese.

and so Naomi is still loving life like an owl...

super alert @ nite and super cranky...

And me being a heavy sleeper, sometimes I can even sleep thru the nite without realising 

that Naomi is screaming and Wifey have brought her to her Mum's room for feed.

Talked to many colleagues and there's lotsa school of thoughts on the best way to bring up an infant.

Trying my best to mix & match.

Its been tough on Wifey..

Wifey, you are the best!

Happy 1 week old, Naomi.

Daddy & Mummy love u!

Wifey, I will give you all the encouragement & positivity strength that you need.

Positivity will bring us across any hurdler.

and for you, i will control myself.

Naomi likes to poo....

to be specific, Naomi likes to poo while being breastfed!

For the 5th time since day 1..

haha...

and so we fetch Naomi home yesterday noon.

She slept throughout the trip so it was a smooth smooth ride..

and also the 1st time i drive so slow... haha..

Anyway it was a pretty dramatic 1st nite at home..

with me reading the milk formula instruction wrongly..

and with Naomi crying n crying non stop at nite which caused us to sleep at 3+am..

well.. as tiring as it can be.. its a learning process...

and if GOD decides to give us a child, I'm sure that GOD will equip us with the skillset to take care of the child.

what we need is practice n time to understand Naomi..

Feeding wise, currently Naomi is on both breastfeeding n formula cup feeding.

Wifey is an expert with cup feed while i seems to fail at it..

I gotta practice harder...

Naomi seems to cry most of the time i carry n try to pacify her... haha...

maybe i din talk enough to her during the pregnancy period. maybe.

:(

Naomi keeps crying today..

I do hope that this is normal.

the world greatest

These 2 days are the MOST memorable days of my life..

Memorable in sense of both Joy & Pain..

Yesterady 4pm+:

We checked ourselves into TMC and Wifey was directly admitted into the labour ward .

Baby's estimated delivery date was 5th Nov and Doc Adrian doesn't want the baby to be in the womb beyond the EDD thus we had to induce...

The nurse inserted a pill/tablet into Wifey's private which I think it used to cause some dilation.

Wifey felt a little uncomfortable at this time.

Wifey's mindset is to go all natural and no epidural.

Yesterday 9pm

Wifey was transferred to the delivery ward and Doc Adrian arrived.

I was told to leave the ward for a while and when I came back in abt 45mins time, Wifey told me that Doc Adrian burst her water bag and it was a very painful & uncomfortable moment.

After the water bag was burst, contraction starts to occur and Wifey started to feel the pain every time contraction comes.

Time seems to pass by so so slow...

The contraction starts to frequent and Wifey is in unbearable pain..

Repeatedly, i asked Wifey to go for Epidural but she refused..

Nurse advised Wifey the same thing as the pain will only GET WORSE and Wifey's dilation is only 1cm+.

Only when dilation reaches 10cm then the baby is ready to be delivered..

It was 11+ at this time and nurse said that Wifey should reach 10cm by 7 to 8am the following day..

THAT IS 9 MORE HRS OF HARDCORE PAIN!

Wifey in so much pain still refused to go for Epidural...

Contraction frequents and when I see Wifey suffering, there is really nothing I can do except for praying, hugging and encouraging her...

Felt so useless as a husband..

and it totally breaks my heart seeing Wifey suffering for HOURS..

many a times, i almost teared... but i had to be strong..

2am..

Seeing Wifey's agony and pain getting worsen and fearing that Wifey still need to go thru this for 5-6 hrs more and may end up with no strength to push in the end, I had to really convinced Wifey to take the epidural...

Through countless attempt, Wifey finally agreed and she was given epidural..

Nurse mentioned that 98% of mothers used epidural during delivery..

As expected, Wifey started to feel numbness in her lower body and got some side effect like shivering...

The pain became more manageable at this point of time.

2am-650am..

Once a while, baby heartbeats seems to weaken and we had to alert the nurses...

Wifey was asked to breathe into the oxygen mask to provide more oxygen to baby..

At ard 630, Wifey had full dilation.. The nurse asked Wifey to PUSH, PUSH, PUSH..

nothing came out...

After a couple of attempts more, Nurse mentioned that this is not a favorable scenario and she have to call in Doc Adrian..

Doc Adrian came.. and again with the pushing and pushing, Baby is still unable to come out..

No choice and the Doc used the forceps to pull Baby out...

The moment I hear Baby cries, i myself felt like tearing..

Tears of Joy for our love creation and Tears of agony seeing the pain that Wifey had to go thru..

Wifey, besides GOD, you are the world greatest...

Words can"t describe how I felt during these 2 days.

taking a quick nap now before checking in to TMC later.

ok. no contraction today either..

Think Naomi is finding it too comfy inside!

So according to Dr Adrian, no matter what Wifey will need to check into TMC on Sunday 4pm.

Time to catch up on sleep these 2 days.

HOME

3 years ago, we wanted to go industrial and I'm glad that we stick to what we want. :)

More photos in my Facebook soon!

and so Naomi doesn't wanna come out on the 2th Nov.

no contraction today.

:(

Baby Naomi don't wanna arrive on 1st Nov.

On a side note, today wifey told me..

"I pack my bag for delivery bag liao & got pack 2 energy bars"

I asked, " energy bar for what?"

Wifey said, " The guide say must pack snacks for the husband. I also help you charged your psp le."

:)
