Welcome Adriana Hani

Ok, sorry about the 'live' update part, was caught up with the moment and decided that attending to the mrs and the girl was way more satisfying than trying to update this.

The delivery was scheduled at 1:30 pm, but with all the necessary pre-op precodeure, the mrs was only wheeled in at 1:50 pm. As she was wheeld into the OT, the spouse has to wait outside. SJMC has a strict no spouse allowed in OT, due to histories that husbands have fainted during the procedure and need more attention than the mother and baby themselves.

At 2:45 pm, 28January 2008 Adriana Hani was born. I was introduced to her about 15 minutes later. Quick check reveals that she has all 10 toes and fingers, quite a good size at 3.32 kg, 40.6 cm with an AGPAR score of 10, has a great pair of lungs as most importantly is a GIRL! After a more thorough check, I was able to 'iqamat' in her ears before handing her over to the nursery staff for cleaning and warming up. Her features was more on the mrs side of the family, with me wandering whether they got the right baby or not as her eyes were just slits. Even the nursery staff has to double check with the OT staff that they haven't mixed up the baby.

At about 4:30 pm. I went back home to do the 'cleansing' of the placenta, along with picking up the boy from school so that he would be able to go to the hospital. I think among all of us, the boy was the one who's really looking forward for the arrival of his sister. He was really excited and was talking about things that they would do together, oblivious to the fact that his sister would need about 4-5 months before she can play along with him.
