Went to Laffles Hospital to visit AuntieJ who just gave birth to Princess No. 2. Very Cute!! She look so much like No.1 when she was born on last V Day. Just 2 size smaller. :)
To think about it, it's pretty amazing how a young life can grow in a woman's womb and ultimately being born into this world after 9 nine months. But yet again, it's a new beginning to a life.. supposedly into this world with hope and joy. Sad to say, life (like i always said) is a torture and filed with pain and hurt, having to go thru so much shit. Sometimes you just can't help but to think if you should be happy or sad for this little child. In time to come, life in this society will be ten times or probably more, harder to survive. Everything is going to be very expensive, standard of living shooting up sky high and intense competitive amongst peers and to be your best will probably drive you nuts. :(
Have you ever wondered why every baby has this 'baby smell' that is so pang?? just by smelling the baby around the head and neck area makes you high man!! hahahah Where does this smell come from? Then how come when one grows up, the smell disappears and slowly it turns from pang to a stench, stench from perspiration!! EeeeKkkkkk
Just last week, I went to my fren's house warming and we were also talking about pregnancy and giving birth. So my fren was telling us that her fren (Fren A) just gave birth a week ago and Fren A said that the pain from labour was so intense that she thought she's going to die. She was pushing so hard that her face almost turned black in color and when her husband saw how hard she was trying to deliver the baby, he told her he will buy and do anything for her next time. hahahahah then we were joking and say, Pui! when it comes to quarrel, everything also forget liao, where will remember the time during her labour and the pain she went through???? Buy things for her??? few months down the road, everything also complain expensive, where will remember oh yes, my wife is so wei da, went thru so much for our child and buy for her???? All stinko men are sama sama one, say one thing do another one la! Say soemthing nice just to pacify the female then when things coold own, deny everything at all costs! Idiots..
But seriously, the pain from labour is no joke. Especially for women like me with low threshold for pain. Think i'll die or think i'm going to die also hahahah The tummy ache i get form time to time already is killing me, how to endure labour pain?? and through many hours some more???? Heng ar, there is this wonderful medical invention call epidural. I'll be the 1st to opt for it, even before the contractions start, i'll go like "Doc, 2 mega doses of epidural please and another dose of driip on standby" hahahah but heard from AuntieJ even after giving birth, the pain from the contraction of the uterus is also very intense. She asked the nurse for pain killers and it's so bloody painful that it doesn't work, or dun seem to work. and she had a slpless night. But I guess all Mothers are wei da one. Despite how much pain she's going through, seeing your little one will just make you forget all about it, and you'll unknowingly smile and think "that's my little baby" Dun say, even I myself, when I look at Princess Eilis, i smiled :)
Placenta for a meal, anyone? Sounds pretty disgusting right?? But it's a fact! There are people who actually asked the Gynae for the placenta so they can bring home and cook and eat. Or eat it raw??? When I first heard it, I was going like WHAT???? EAT PLACENTA?? Can eat anot??? But the fact of it is that it is super nutritious and Ladies, it's super damn GOOD, BAGUS BAGUS for the skin, the complexion!!! People who ate are live testimonies to it, saying that complexion really super improved, better than SKII or whatever funky beauty products out there in the market. and moreover, eating the placenta will help you to regain your figure faster and wounds heal faster, everything also fast fast.. But I seriously wonder if it's true. Hmmm maybe should go surf the web to see if can find anything on it. :p But for IceQueen, if it really can improve my complexion, TMD, I buay gobble up the whole piece!!! ahhahahahaha I heard there are some who freeze the placenta and slowly eat.. very precious, cannot one time finish it. Ma chiam like bird nest.. heee
Anyway, really happy for AuntieJ for the arrival of Princess Eilis :)
