Day 2 - Oxygen supply reduced to 23%

Papa brought you the baby bath gel, baby oil and wet tissue.
Because your mom is still at the hospital ward, Papa has to do the shopping with your 2 sisters.

Papa chose the most gentle type because you are so small.
Hope you like it.



Your grandfather has put up 2 suggestions for your name.
Papa and mom have chose to name you as "Hao" 浩.
The meaning is the grand, the great and the vast.


You did well on day 2.
The oxygen supply of the ventilator has reduced from day 1 40% to 35%.
On day 2, it has reduced to 25% in the morning and subsequently further reduced to 23%.
It shows that you are coping well with the oxygen intake.

You are more active now.
You are able to control your fingers better. You can open your palm and grip it.
You kick high with your right leg.
Because you are so active, and your hand tend to pull off the tape that hold the tubes, the nurse has to tie your hand to ensure you do not harm yourself by pulling of them.

You started to open your eyes.
You eye balls are turning right and left, are you wondering where are you?

I recorded your mom messages and keep playing to you.
I knew you can hear it.
The mom is teaching you how to breathe,  inhale, exhale.
Your mom also want you to be strong, and determine.
You get excited when I played you the records.

When I say good bye to you, I can notice your facial expression and you turn to me.
You are good boy, and very strong.
We know you will make it.

Day 1 - 2 doses of Surfactant

You are small and thin. At 28 weeks, your weight is only at 640g.
Doctor said you may have suffered for a long time in your mother's worm.

Doctors put you in the incubator and you are assisted with oxygen ventilator.
You are able to breath well with the aids and oxygen level in your blood is satisfactory .
You are treated with surfactant in the evening and will be followed by another dose in the midnight.

I touched your feet and palm. You knew it.
I guessed you like it, you kick back and press your foot on my finger.
You were gripping your palm.
You sensed papa, and I hope you are able to listen to me.
I told you "Baby, be brave, be strong, and grow fast and be healthy"

I hope you sleep well at night. See you later. 

A Hero Is Born

Today, 30th May 2015, is a long day for me.

I am at the Universiti Malaya Hospital waiting for my wife and our 28 weeks preterm baby where they are undergoing the classical Caesarian operation.

The preterm baby is my third child. What I hope is both my wife & my baby will be safe. And I pray that my baby will do well at the NICU and get home healthily.

婆媳实战录三

想当年㓜稚到期待婆像对待自己的孩子一样的对待媳妇,但在一起住了十年终于悟出了这是不可能的。毕竟女人的心胸是比较瞎窄。
曾经买过一遍文章,说道只要做丈夫的会做人,好事都说是妻子的功劳,那么做婆婆的就会很疼惜做媳妇。
经过十年的经验,告诉我这不是每个人都管用。我的婆婆就很不管用,在她的脑海里,好的肯定是儿子的功劳、不好的肯定是媳妇所教的,不管这话是从谁的口中出来。
也因此我从以前的忍让及百分百配合到后来的勇于表达和做些自己认为对的事情。
比如回娘家,因为公婆的家也是在同个村,自从公婆搬来城市和我们同住后,回乡下总是一起。后来我尝式在公婆没有回的情况下回乡下和父母和姐姐聚那么一两天。婆婆当然不高兴,因为她觉得我们丢下她,可她忘了我们是365天一起住的。这难免,毕竟这么多年都是一起上街,吃饭,看戏等。也因为这样让我更加珍惜和丈夫及孩子一起的时候,也很期待。
不过我觉得婆婆也需要时间来适应,毕竟从前的我太顺从了。
