The Long wait comes to a happy end

It was long time back I wrote my last blog but not without a reason. My wife delivered our first baby boy on 09th of August.

Though the expected delivery date was August 17, the doctor confirmed that there is no posibility of normal delivery because of the wrong position of the baby inside.It would be a mental presure for all, Hema in particular, to wait for such a long time knowing that she is going to be operated. We decided to operate and deliver the baby at the earliest.

August 09th was the date decided for the operation. Hema was admitted on 08th evening to prepare herself. Earlier we both decided not to know the sex of the baby in advance, otherwise there is no much excitement in waiting.

It was about 10:25 in the morning when she was taken to the operation theatre. The anxious wait was for about 20 mins. At exactly about 10:48, we heared the sweat voice of our baby. Five mins later a nurse came out of the room and told us that it was a baby boy and went back in. I wanted to know how was hema doing but no one was there to tell me that. I left the crowd and cried. I was not able to control my emotion. She was unconsious when I saw her after the operation.

The 9 month long wait looks shorter than the 20 mins in front of the operation room.
