Geok's baby was delivered yesterday at 1338h, weighing a healthy 3.165kg!
My poor sister had been experiencing contractions for close to a week, and had been overdue by 5 days by the time she finally delivered.
From hearing her birth story, I must say she was really tolerant and strong! She checked into hospital at around midnight but for some reason they didn't want to give her the epidural until the obstetrician examined her! Which was at 9 am the next morning! So she survived on nitrous and pure grit through the night.
Anyway... she looked pretty good at 5 PM when we went to visit her. Madison came along too and she was quite taken with the baby. She kept exclaiming "baby!" and of course wanted to push the cot all over the place!( which she wasn't allowed when the baby was in it!)
Munhon was a pretty good dad to start... he was so gentle with his daughter and gamely changed her outfit, practised swaddling her...Chris showed him once and he could pretty much do it afterward.
More to come... we might go visit her again today... or maybe wait till she comes home tomorrow...
