10 March 2015 I heard the commotion that night. At first all was quiet with some distinct Malay series going on the background. After a while, mommy got excited. She was very overwhelmed. She was happy and sad at the same time. Soon, there were some voices. Mommy was talking to a lady when she started crying. Later, a little boy came and lay beside mommy to drink milk. He even put his hands on mommy's tummy to feel me. The lady cried. Mommy tried to hold back her tears too. 11 March 2015 Doctor decided I was to come out today. Mommy's sugar levels were escalated. At 10.09 am, I came into the world. I was 50 cm at 3.54kg, apparently a big baby. Mommy decided not to breastfeed me and so I was bottle-fed from the beginning. Hospital Umra at Shah Alam section 13 provided Enfalac. That afternoon, at about 5, amma, appa and anneh came to pick me up. Amma held me in her arms and carried me gently while anneh was excited. He kept asking amma to se me, making amma hold me in an awkward position. We arrived home shortly before 7pm and my life here began. Amma was supposed to go to work that night ut cancelled. Very quickly they had to choose a name for me. They called me dumpling, siew mai, loh mai kai, etc. I was home.
