Caleb at birth

Posted by tyan (Singapore, Singapore) on 4 November 2007 in People & Portraits.

I was saying that my camera's LCD CRACKED and i cannot see a preview of the pictures i take.I have to look through the viewfinder and i only know how the pictures turn out when i download them to the computer. I'll have to get it repaired and that'll take a week or two.

Meanwhile i will take you on a trip down memory lane abt some of the things that happened before i became an avid p/blogger this year,after Ian's arrival.So they'll be old photos.Bear with me while i get the camera LCD fixed:)
******************************************************************

I remember feeling very afraid and unsure when my labour pains started on 22nd May 2005,Sunday night. But since i had the show that morning,i thought the pains should be 'labour pains' and we took a cab to the hospital.

When i was in the labour ward,i heard screams from the neighbouring ward.

"Save me!","Arghh,I am in pain!"

Shudders.Shucks.What did i get myself into?Now i cant get out.

Then i heard insensitive barking of orders.

"PUSH!PUSH HARDER!"

OH NO.

Then it was my turn.

The midwife scolded me when i screamed. She said i was to direct the energy i used for screaming to push.She didnt even allow me to squint my face.

Law tried to be helpful by parroting the midwife and i screamed at him to shut up.haha.

Anyway our firstborn was out after 15 hours of labour.His name is Caleb Tang Chong Yee. Both his names meant faithfulness.
