Say Hello...

... to the new addition to our family, Maria Bettina.


She was born last Monday, April 26 at 2:50PM. On the three normal deliveries I've had, she's the one who gave me the least problems during labor and delivery.

As some of you may know, I was at 1cm for over two weeks. Then, two days after my expected due delivery date, my water bag leaked. It was at 4:45am that I felt the uncontrollable liquid discharge. I wasn't feeling any contractions but it seemed that it was time. When I called my mother to check, she suggested that I should head to the hospital right away to beat the Monday morning rush.

Apparently, I was leaking. It was frustrating because it's like peeing uncontrollably every time I'd experience contractions. When the ROD examined me, I was still at 1cm. They gave me meds to hasten the contractions and the dilation. In less than four hours, I was ready to deliver Bettina.

I don't think she looks like me. At first glance, she looks like Johann. What do you think?
