Adel is finally at home~

When I was googling about Preeclampsia, I found this website, its a forum/support group for people who have been diagnosed with preeclampsia. After reading a few posts, I realized how lucky I am to have caught it on time & that my baby is fine & healthy. Many mothers out there have grieve & lost their baby due to preeclampsia.

There is also one post about a mother not feeling attached/bonded to her baby because her baby is in NICU, and she couldn't hold her because her baby was all wired up. She also said she cried at night if she didn't visit her baby & she felt guilty of not being by her baby's side all the time. I felt that too when Adel was in Special Care Baby Unit. For a week, he have wires all over his body & we couldn't cuddle him much. At night, I cried because I miss him, because I want to hold him & because the guilt I'm feeling of not staying longer with him. I thought I was having a PPD, but I guess its just a common feeling being apart from our baby.

After 3 weeks & 4 days of going back & forth to the hospital 3 times a day, Alhamdulillah, now Adel is at home with Mama & Papa. He still have the feeding tube on, but the midwives will probably take it off tomorrow if she's happy with Adel's feeding (bf) & weight gain.

Bahagianya dapat riba kan dia mcm ni hari-hari & bila-bila masa jek...
