Lou’ayy - The New Year Baby
The experience of bringing a new life to this world is unexplainable. When you hear your baby cry for the first time is a moment that you will never forget. It made me go numb (the theatre was so cold too) and I almost cried. I can’t believe that I am a father! I have been looking forward to this day with anticipation, but I never knew I was going to be this excited! Suddenly, the whole paradigm of my life has changed. My priorities have changed upside down and now everything will revolve around this tiny little angel!
Ever since the time our gynecologist told us that he is going to bring the baby out, I was on counting seconds. I was so excited that I could not control myself! And so was Suny, she was both excited and nervous! I was so impatient, I was counting the minutes to seeing the baby! It wasn’t minutes and it just turned out to be a few seconds. And the experience of being there when your wife is giving birth to your kid, it’s something every father has to experience. At Ninewells, fathers are allowed to be with their wives at the birth, be it a natural delivery or a C-section operation. As a father, it is the closest you will get to being with your wife and your kid. It allows you to be there and experience your child’s birth first hand. Wow!
Everything went so smoothly because of the brilliance of the doctors at Ninewells, and I need to thank them. I don’t have enough words to thank you Dr. Rohana Haththotuwa, who was our gynecologist. You guided us through the last few stages and made all the right decisions along the way. You were a savior! You even managed to make the baby’s birthday same as yours. And you are the best in the field. And Dr. U. Kumarasinghe, with whom our Lou’ayy will be starting his life. You have taken on the task of seeing our baby through his early years and we thank you for that!
Last but not the least a word about Ninewells, it is the best maternity hospital in Sri Lanka and I would recommend it to anybody who is coming to Sri Lanka for delivery.
