My Name is Reyza ...... Reyza Khan


16th April 2008.

Reyza Khan decided to get me operated earlier than scheduled (19th April) . He was pulled out at 22.02pm and was weight at 3.6kg. I wondered to myself at the OT table, if this was a Normal Delivery, could I have handle it as good as the Ceasarean Op. (Reyza was breeched , and I watched the operation throughout the time. Macam tengok Discovery Channel pulak)

It wasnt over yet, he needs to be warded to the Intensive Care. Before he was whisked away, the docs showed him to me." Ma'am please check, its a boy." I didnt quite understand what the doc wanted me to do, I just look at his 'lil * and told myself. Yes, he IS a BOY! and gave a nod to the doc. I even sempat counted his 10 lil comel toes.

Back to baby Reyza, he was breathing very fast and it was a concern to the peadeatrics. It didnt stop there, he was also put into the N.I.C.U for a day. He was vomitting, doctor heard a 'murmur', he had a slight jaundice . The hardest thing for me & hubby was to see him inside the incubator. He is quite a big baby to be put into the incubator. Felt 'kesian' for him.

After I.C, Reyza was than transferred to the Peads Ward . The docs, just wanted to monitor his murmur for another night (mind you, he has stayed in HKL almost a week). What the heck its only 1 night, I thought wrong...

The following morning, he look "yellow". Gawd. He got jaundiced (I thot this jaundice is over). He was still being 'tahan' by the doctor for another night. It was quite difficult for me, emotionally & mentally. Even my hubby was trying his best to make me happy. The following day, no good news from the doctor. Reyza blood test doesnt show good signs. I had enough.


I talk to the doctors & my hubby. We then decided to transfer him to DSH to get his jaundiced monitored. It was quite difficult decision as it was a first timer for hubby and me to make decision for our lil son and we are not sure wether we are making the right one. However, with my condition of having a c-sec op and unable to care even for myself. We have to bring him out. Closer to home, or at least to bring him to an 'unstressful' environment.
