Introducing....Sophia Yasmin Sim......

Here we have it, little baby Sophia, still so tiny and still so wrinkly... What I was amaze with was the amount of hair on her head!!! Look!!! Of course it has to be her mother's genes..... with that amount of hair... haha...

She was so delicate..... If I am not mistaken, Sophia was born the same time as Jared (her older brother, 34 weeks), and weighs the same as Daniel (her 3rd brother, not sure about the weight) and probably with the looks of Ryan (her 2nd brother).

What I was shock with was the attitudes of the nurses at RIPAS hospital (should we be surprise??). Naz was rush to labour on a wheelchair... well, rush is not the word to use as they were strolling to the ward. Her water had already broke and Naz told the nurse that the baby was about to come out. The nurses did not believe... Please note that the time was 9.45pm and the nurses were "ready" to change shift at 10pm. It was quite obvious that the nurses her more than ready to go home instead of taking up nurses duty of delivering babies. If they were given the chance, I am sure they would like to push the baby back into the womb until the next duty nurse comes in!!!!

Anyway, on the wheelchair Naz actually could feel baby Sophia's head coming out and insisted that the nurse had a look under her gown. So, casually and with much reluctance, they did, and to their surprise, yes, little Sohia's head was already popping out!!!

Only then did they rush to the labour room. Naz was so afraid that Sophia would just pop out while on the wheelchair, but luckily, Sophia was born safety on the labour bed, no thanks to the nurses... who still was waiting for the next duty nurses to take over with the cleaning up of Sophia!!!!
