Here she comes Part II

As promised here are the rest of the pictures. Still can't believed that I delivered her normally at 8 lbs ! The nurses keeps on telling me that she is too big for me, but with the patience and good skills of my doctor, I was able to deliver her with the help of a vacuum. Her head is quite elongated, but her pediatrician assured us that it will go back to its normal size. She has some bruises on her head, but aside from that she is healthy and strong. A good eater too !!!

Baby Andi after her first bath at the hospital. People were surprised how loud she cried :-)


Big sister was so happy to see baby Andi. She was so excited, but quite hesitant when she saw me lying in bed with a lot of tubes attached to my arms.

My Family :-)

Thank you so much guys !

People who gives you support, strenght and love makes this experienced a memorable one no matter how difficult and painful it is. The staff of Overlake Hospital is outstanding, great service, and good food :-) Even though my doctor was on vacation, I was so happy that Dr. Moore was there to help me. She really is great, I made the right choice to asked her to deliver my baby.

Here she comes :-) Part 1

After nine months and five days of waiting, she finally decided to see her Mom, Dad and big sister Gabz. On the wee hour of 23 Sept., 2009 Adrienne Danielle decided to see the world.

At 3am, I woke up with a sudden gush of water coming out. I thought I was dreaming, but started to stand up and it was still running down my legs. I woke up my husband and told him that I guess I broke my water bag. Went to the bathroom and after a while it stops. Oh, I told him; "Was it my water bag or just my urine?" Hmmm he suddenly went back to bed to sleep. Huh? why is he sleeping? I called the hospital and asked them what to do. They told me to go to admission so they could check me since I was already five days overdue to make sure what is happening. So, I woke up my husband again and told him that we need to go to the hospital. By then, I started to feel the contractions, and he started to panic!

To make the story short, when they checked me at the hospital, I was four cm dilated and my water bag indeed broke. So they start the labor process and took Andi the whole day before she saw us. I gave birth to baby Andi at 4:50PM, who is 8 lbs. 20 1/2 inches long. I did not expect her to be that big, no wonder it took me 16 hours of long hard labor. But all of that was over, and the moment I hold her in my arms, I could not stop crying. My heart was bursting with happiness and unexplanable feelings.

Here she is :
