Paperwork

baby footprints

So you need to get the papers done for the newborn. They can't sign and their fingers too small for thumb printing. So, what do you do? Foot prints of course.

A feladat, megcsinálni az újszülött papírjait. Aláírni még nem tudnak, és az ujjaik még tul kicsik az ujlenyomathoz. Mit teszel ilyenkor? Természetesen láb lenyomatot veszel.

In the operating theatre

I was lucky to be allowed by the docs to the operating theatre where Klaudia gave birth.

We had an elected Caesarian, so the whole procedure took less than one hour. The docs warned me that it is going to be shocking. Fortunately, my previous experience delivering puppies prepared me for what I will see.

Surprisingly the operation was very clean. The baby was out in no time. Klaudia and me maintained contact throughout the whole procedure.

It was interesting how carefully the number of instruments, pads and towels were counted. Also, I didn't expect the docs to clean the wound so much with flowing water.

Once the mother and child were separated, the docs took the cord blood. The package together with the mother's blood and a bunch of paperwork was sent to the UK where they are going to store the stem cells in a cryogenic (below –150 °C) freezer for the future.

Apple looked all blue and purple at first, but after 15 minutes she turned pink. There was only a bit of crying. She looked totally cute to me from the first minute.

Few hours after the operation Klaudia started feeling a lot of pain. This is going to be a tough time for her.

Szerencsém volt, mert a dokik beengedtek műtőbe ahol a Klaudia szült.

Választott császármetszésünk volt, ezért az egész művelet nem tartott tovább egy óránál. A dokik figyelmeztettek hogy megrázó élményben lesz részem. Szerencsére volt már tapasztalatom kiskutyákkal, ezért tudtam mire számíthatok.

Az operáció meglepően tiszta volt. A bébi sec-pec kinn volt. Klaudia és közöttem folyamatos volt a kommunikáció.

Érdekesnek tartottam mekkora figyelmet szenteltek a különböző eszközök és törülközők számontartására. Arra sem számítottam, hogy ennyire sok folyó vízzel fogják a sebet kimosni.

Miután az anya és a gyerek el lett választva egymástól, az orvosok levették a köldök vért. A csomagot az anya vérével és egy csomó papírral együtt elküldtük angliába, ahol kriogén (–150 °C alatt) hütéssel fogják az őssejteket letárolni.

Pár órával a mütét után Klaudia elkezdett érezni, ami sok fájdalommal járt. Ez nehéz időszak lesz a számára.

Apple's first image

Apple is just 2 hours old on this image. She was born with 3.580kg and received an Apgar score of 9.9. Lenght: 51 cm. The kido is fine, but Mom is in a lot of pain.

Apple csupán két órás ezen a képen. 3.580kg-al születtet és 9.9-es Apgar értékelést kapott. Hossz: 51 cm. A gyerek rendben, mama fájdalomban.

Few days left

9 month

Már csak pár nap van hátra.

All set

We've bought all the stuff. We've got the crib, the stroller, the bathing tub and dozens of little things that apparently needed to raise a baby. We're so excited and scared at the same time. Counting down...

Megvettünk mindent. Megvan a bölcső, a babakocsi, a fürdetőkád és tucatnyi egyéb dolog ami állítólag szükséges egy bébi felneveléséhez. Izgatottak is és ijedtek is vagyunk egyszerre. Visszaszámlálás...

Phaedra in Greek mythology

Phaedra in Greek mythologyAccording to Wikipedia Phaedra was the mother of Demophon and Acamas by Theseus.

While married to Theseus, Phaedra fell in love with Hippolytus, Theseus' son by his rape victim and Amazonian queen, Hippolyte. According to some sources, Hippolytus had scorned Aphrodite to become a devotee of Artemis and Aphrodite made Phaedra fall in love with him as a punishment. He rejected her. Alternatively, Phaedra's nurse told Hippolytus of her love, and he swore he would not reveal her as a source of information. In revenge, Phaedra wrote Theseus a letter that claimed Hippolytus raped her. She then killed herself. Theseus believed her and cursed Hippolytus with one of the three curses he had received from Poseidon. As a result, Hippolytus' horses were frightened by a sea monster and dragged their rider to his death. Alternatively, after Phaedra told Theseus that Hippolytus had raped her, Theseus killed his son and Phaedra committed suicide out of guilt for she had not intended for Hippolytus to die. Artemis later told Theseus the truth. In a third version, Phaedra simply told Theseus this and did not kill herself; Dionysus sent a wild bull which terrified Hippolytus' horses.

Klaudia 6 month pregnant

Klaudia on my Harley

Kluadia was sitting on my Harley waiting for me, so we can go out. I had to snap the moment with my less than perfect phone camera.

It's a girl

After many sessions of ultrasound we still couldn't find out the sex of the baby. Finally, now we know for sure. It's a girl.

Time to do some shopping.
