Discharge started. Going for the checkup. Praying that all go well.

[update]: Just returned from hospital. So far things seems ok. Rani is still in hospital. Will know more details only when doctor comes in…

It has been busy – both at home & work. Full Saturday went busy with medical check up for Rani.

Again on Monday had to rush home for consulting doc for the results.

There is bit of concern.

Weight of the baby is only 2.3kgs but there is high amount of fluid.

So doc suggested to do blood test again. But with unnecessarily been busy at work that I am returning home late these days.

When too many things depend in my shoulder, that gives mental stress.

If this week passes by then risk is minimal for baby.

Waiting….

He is going to ‘office’ to get ‘kasu’ and he will put that in ‘oondiyal’. Isn’t he smart?

I have given many presentations before, but tomorrow I will be presenting before new UPSC (known for selecting IAS officers) graduates. There is a 3 day workshop and mine is the first presentation. Thrilled but also concerned.

Just finished the presentation & after a good nite sleep it’s time for the show.

I got few DVD/VCDs for Piyo. One of them is Marry Poppins. I didn’t know the entire story, but once watched the ‘step in time’ song & dance (probably at Disney world) and now I bought it (so in a way you can question me, did I buy fit him or for me.

Piyo loves this movie. He watches atleast twice a week (if not more). And it’s good too.

He can’t pronounce the name correctly. In his own sweet childish way he will say, meya Poppins. Lovely.

With Piyo demanding as much time as possible, I don’t get to do what I like to do.

But today (from Friday night) was different. I wrote & published two blog posts (read them in jjude.biz), took Piyo for a metro trip, washed baby bed for the next baby. In between watched some entertaining TV too. Can’t ask for more.

To tell you the truth, I don’t know. We have been preparing him in the way that we know. We don’t even know if he understand all of this. But we keep talking about the baby.

It is an ongoing discussion between Rani & I how gender if the baby will impact him.

We will soon find out.

When I am home, Piyo demands all attention. And he insists to aid me and Rani and expecting a ‘Thank You’. This of course interrupt our flow of doing things and definitely delays whatever we are doing at that moment. This infuriates Rani. Add to it, I forbid scolding him without logic – my logic is that at one end we train him to be independent and on the other we want him to give that independence back when it is inconvenient to us. Of course there are times I too get frustrated.

So the frequent scene at home resembles an irritated sister nagging a brother. And I am the mediator. Nice huh?

Rani tells me piyo was born sometime at this stage. Our gyn has said that there is no scientific proof that second kid will follow the first in this delivery pattern, but she has seen it happen. She has asked us to be ready.

I had thought a lot about keeping Rani here in Delhi. There are lot of unknowns and time and again I get chill that all should go well.

Next 2 months is going to go tensed.
