The Day I Became A MOM!!

I had almost completed 8 months and that day was the wedding of I my husband's cousin. I had to go to the doctor and then the plan was to go to the parlour for a bit of threading coz god knows when i would get a chance to go again..a few months may be. As usual, I went at 1.30pm to the hospital as my doc would only come at that time there. I went to her, she did my routine check up and gave me the news that my BP had shot up and they had to keep me under observation. I was not at all prepared to go & get admitted in the hospital but to go to the cousin's wedding. I went back home and on the way called hubby dearest to come home ASAP. Came back home and told my mum - " the doctor asked me to get admitted right away and I am scared" she said - "why?" nothing will happen do not worry. So hubby came and took me to the hospital. The doc checked my BP again and put me under observation. hubby did not want to go to the wedding reception but I sent him off as all his cousins were there and in any case I was not delivering that day..in the morning my mum had made Bisi bele bhath and I relished it :-)! When the doctor came a lttle while later, and asked me what I had for breakfast - i told her. She is like oh oh! we will have to wait for the food to digest before we start on you. Then she asked me how I wanted to deliver as a debate was going on b/n mom & MIL -natural VS C section. Finally I went in for the C Section - not coz I wanted to obey my MIL but was scared to go through the natural child birth. Finally I went in to the operation theatre at 4.30pm. My daughter was born at 5.21pm. When the baby cried, I was crying too..the doc did not tell me what baby it was, when I asked her - she told me it was a baby girl! I was overjoyed and cried. The doc thot I was crying coz I wanted a baby boy?? no ways!!! nada I always wanted a girl! I had got her. my little angel. She was born at 5.21pm on the 31st day of August in the year 2006! She is soon going to be be 6 yr old. I have been a mom for almost 6 years now! But still remember the day she was born and her first cry so vividly!!
