Baby Xinyan has arrived!

Welcome the new addition to the Kho family.

Her name is Xinyan "许心言". Given by Mr Kho, her name means to speak honestly from her heart.

I was pushed into the opeating theatre at 10am. Mr Kho wanted to be in as well. He had missed seeing Yitian being delivered as hers was by emergency ceasarean.

After the epidural having taken effect, the surgeons moved into action. Xinyan's birth time is recorded as 1100hrs. This time round, I spend lesser time in the recovery room as I was trying to wriggle my toes, my body all the time so that the effect of the epidural can wear off faster.

I was anxious to get back to the ward to see my new born as well as to see Yitian. Mr Kho's parents will be bringing her to the hospital. We had prepared presents for Yitian on behalf of her new sister. Yitian had also chosen a rattle for her 妹妹.

For those 4D addicts, see if you can spot any numbers in the pics. Good luck to you.
