Wan Hanis Arisya

The next day I went to the hospital and was able to give a closer look, sine the baby was now in the room with the mother.

She's real cute!! My first niece, my parents first grandchild. I'm the youngest, so I never really feel what its like to have a newcomer in the house.

It was nice.
She's so adorable.
So tiny.
So pure.

and she sleeps all the time. (inherited that from me, i guess.)

but i told ya didn't i?
i am not the kid's friendly type.
never ever.

i wonder what kind of aunt i will be?

My dove, My Baby Love

Monday 28/04/2008

My pregnant sis-in-law, kak aida was due on 12.05. But due to her high blood pressure, the doctor advised her to be 'induced' (the way I heard it). This morning me and umi went to the hospital and waited in her room (312). The will-be mother was in the labor room.
We waited.
Ok, things got a little bored, so me and umi walked to Ampang Point having one of those, you know, girlie times? sounds weird.

Umi got a call from my oldest bro, abang, and we scuttled back to the hospital. It was afalse alarm though. The baby was supposed to be matured (the way i heard it, with some doubts. Even a 16-year old can be quite immature, how could this niece of mine...oh, never mind) but looked like the baby wasn't very keen to see the world.

The water broke at about 3pm. Kak aida's temperature started to rise.She had to be given the epidural. She was suposed to give birth hours ago!

So the doctor decided to operate her. Caesars.

You know how in the movies the concerned relatives all wait anxiously outside the surgery room, and when the doctor came out, everyone surrounded the doctor, sent the doctor suffocated, asking how's my baby was, or how's my wife was, or how's my sister was, and everything?

It wasn't quite like that.

We waited in a room with a TV (Impak Maksima, starring Fasha Sandha and Awal Ashaari), and a nurse asked abang if he wanted to come inside and watch, and he wore this green uniform and a scrub, looked very cool and went inside. and the grown-ups talked about how the weather was shih shah shih shah. and the kids (kak aida's nieces and nephews) hoo haa n hoo haa. Yiyi and Imie sat talking, watching Impak Maksima. Me sat silently reading a Jeffrey Archer.

There was this cute little boy, aged two I think, called Muszaphar (or so I heard), kept playing near me. since I wasn't really err.. kids-friendly, I just smiled, and continued the reading. My brother Imie played with him. And they got real closed. He had a gift with kids.

Suddenly the door opened. My brother got out. Everyone just stared (no rushing). He said she was okay. The baby was okay. and we all rushed back to third floor, to see the baby. We could only watched the baby from outside the room with a big glass window. She was so tiny!
The nurses gave her a bath.

And Imie held Muszaphar up and pointed at the baby. he whispered in an sad-mocked voice.
"Tengok tu.. dah ada baby.. Apar dah x comel dah.."
Muszaphar's sister continued "yelah.. apar dh xglamer dah.."
The toodler's face was so funny! He looked so gob smacked and kinda blurred and you know, terlopong.

Imie continued " lepas ni kalau orang tanya, mana baby?? Apar dah x boleh angkat tgn dah.. org x tgk apar dah... " His voice was really gloomy and conspiratorial as he added a very slow and deliberate whisper.
"Booooooo..."

I coudnt stop laughing.

corrections! though...

Let me clarify first.
Not ALL chick lits or novels are like that. Seriously. You guys might read my previous post and say 'she's so shallow. I read a lot of books and only few have characters like that.'

Duh.

yeah yeah.

what a poser

god. i hate chick lits. seriously. but why would i spend my beauty sleep's time reading one?

1am till 4am for Shopaholic & Baby *Good GOD, woman!*
prep time (long time ago) for The Mystery of Husbands *oh, self..*
One whole day (I had to read a line twice.Don't ask why.I wont tell) for The Little Lady Agency *Yeeesshh!*

There were others. The whole series of Shopaholics. And Can you Keep a Secret?. you know, others.

A total waste of time. But willing to spend money to buy those. And willing to fall onto my knees, to borrow from friends.

Good GOD, woman!!
I really hate chick-lits.
Though I love reading them.



What a poser.
