my first ‘BABY’…

Hmmm…how do i start..well,the title ‘my first baby’ sounds dodgy eh…:-p..
anyway…it’s not ‘MY BABY’ actually…it’s the first baby i delivered during my Obs n Gynae rotation…it was my first day in labour ward and i did not expect at all that i was gonna deliver the baby..i thot that i was just gonna assist the midwife or the obstetrician…but it was really an unforgettable experience,i tell u..
How to describe the feeling..hmm…let me think…i felt excited..proud..happy..satisfied…that i actually brought a difference by helping another human being into this world…yeah…i’m so excited when i imagine that i can see this baby grows up and i can actually tell her this..’i helped to deliver you,you know..:-D’…hihihi
But that’s not all…being in this rotation has made me see how traumatising this whole process is…not just the labour itself…but going through the process of getting pregnant, being pregnant for 40 weeks, and the labour…and it’s not just physical trauma that we’re talking about here…pregnancy and labour affect the woman’s psychology and her social life as well..the moment the ovum is united with the sperm,her life will never be the same anymore….hold on..what am i trying to say here??hmmm…let me put this right…looking at the whole process made me feel grateful to Allah that has allowed me to be born and how grateful i am for the love of my mother who brought me into this world…nobody in this world wants to have pain in their life, and just imagine how bold and brave these women are when they know that the pain is far beyond than anyone can imagine….thus i salute those women out there who jeopardise their life to give another soul a chance to live his life..and we..as children…should never forget the woman who gave us this chance to live our lives..love them..appreciate them..cherish them whenever you still have the chance to do so…
It’s not hard to do that…just 3 words will do…yes…I LOVE YOU…tell them today coz when the time comes that you won’t be able to say anymore,even 3 million words mean nothing….
