Dear Baby (Your journey so far)
Hi.. This is you father (papa). This is my first time that I am writing down something for you. We discovered that you had already knocked at our doors on Nov 25, 2011.
Your mom was feeling weak for a few days before we went to the hospital to check with the doctor. She asked her a few questions and then told her to take the pregnancy test. Our hearts were filled with suspense as we waited for the results outside the laboratory. When we took the results to the doctor, she announced your mom to be pregnant..!
That was a feeling that I cant even express in words! Our first baby.. Me becoming a father.. The feeling was overwhelmingly joyful. I remember I was blushing at the hospital. Before that when your Mom was getting her urine test done, I unknowingly stood under the photo of a baby boy hung right in the center of the waiting hall of the hospital. Your Mom saw me and said like "look where are you standing".. I said.. "Why.. What.. Where".. and then when I looked up, there was this cute fat baby boy's picture smiling at us. Maybe that was GOD's sign of your arrival..!
Well we did not know whom to tell first.. First we broke the news to your Grandparents, Your Gaurav Chachu and then to my buddy Sanju (Sanju Chachu) and Arti Chachi. All were so happy that we talked for hours getting a feel of this new blissful feeling.
Coz you were just an embryo at that time, you needed loads of proteins. The doctor made sure of that by prescribing Folic Acid Caps. Your mom had to take them for a month to provide you with those extra proteins vital for your proper growth.
After a month, we had our first scan. Oh I cant even word that feeling!. There you were like a tiny dot. You had already developed heartbeat and I could hear it loud and clear. Thanks to that ultrasound machine that we had the first glimpse of our blossoming flower. I had a wide smile pasted all over my face after returning to home. Your mom was even more excited..
Baby this was the time when we had to take the best possible care of your mother. This is the time when she had to make sure that she does not pick up heavy things, no stresses, no tensions to be taken and unnecessary travelling had to be avoided. You know wot.. your mom was working before we discovered about you. And her travelling to and fro was about 2 hrs daily and that too via bus, one time in the day. So keeping in mind the care that we had to take, we decided that your mom would quit the job and just stay home making sure that she does not develope any complications.
Thanks to that rest period that your mom had, the second scan was normal too and you were growing at normal rate. No complications! The doctor had some reservations about your Granny (Your mom's mother) being diabetic. So we had to clear that doubt by taking Tripple Screening Test. Even that was normal.
Baby its been good so far. Coz doctor had advised earlier not to go for long distance travels, now as you are already three months old, we are permitted to travel. Now on 2nd March, 2012 we've booked our tickets for Rajdhani Express.. Its gona be your first train ride..! Yippeeee...!!!
We have your 20 weeks scan coming up around the same time that we intend to travel to punjab. So we might take the scan a bit earlier. Probably on 1st March, 2012. And then off we go to Punjab.. To see your grandparents. Trust me baby loads of love and blessings await you there..!
Oh and this is gonna be your first Holi !!.. yayyyyyyyyy..
Love
Papa
