The day before Iman was born


Babah drove Mama's Kelisa to work since Mama started her maternity leave because Mama's car is so much fun to drive.

In the morning of 12th May 2013, just after Subuh prayer Mama got signs that I am ready to be born. Babah was busy getting ready for work. Since mama said she's ok, she asked Babah to go to work first and come back later to go to the hospital.

So Babah went to work but just about half a kilometer away, Mama texted him saying the sign showed again. So babah made a 180 degree turn to return home and told nenek it is time. Nenek asked Mama to get ready as we are going to Hospital Serdang.

It was Sunday so the road was clear. Upon arrival, Babah dropped Mama at Wad Bersalin with Nenek while he parked the car. Mama and Nenek registered at the counter and learned that the ward was all full. Even some aunties had to wait at the benches near the registration counter until they are ready to give birth. But the doctor still going to check mama.

After waiting for some time. The doctor called Mama and checked her up. The opening was still small - 1cm. So since it was too early and the ward is full, the doctor asked mama to return home first.

So we all went back, with Mama getting some rest with Iman kicking Mama's tummy every hour and Babah went to work. Oh, Babah is on 4-days shift so he usually works on weekends.

At that night, Mama had trouble sleeping as she was having contraction every half an hour, until the next morning...
