Four years ago, on the 21st day of May, I was painstakingly enduring a premature labor in Makati Medical Center. I was 8 months pregnant then. That was a week after my false labor in which my OB Gyne told me that my baby might not survive if I deliver it within the month. I was scared to death upon knowing that I was 8cm already when I arrived at the hospital. It was scary for two reasons. One, I don't know if I am indeed ready to be a mother at the tender age of 17 and two, because no one knows if the baby would survive. I was brought to the labor room wherein they injected something somewhere near my spine. I was about to embark in epidural delivery. After 15 hours of wicked labor, I gave birth to a 4.15 pound baby boy. It was 11:12am then. All I my senses could recognize is the cry of a quite noisy baby and the stitches being done to me. It was a normal delivery and I had a normal baby. He was tiny and loud for his size. He was brought closer to me and the moment is just priceless! I don't know why but I suddenly burst out in tears. All the hardships and pain was worth it.

Past forward to present. I have a young healthy boy (although hospitalized twice. One for pneumonia when he was three weeks old and another for gastroenteritis when he was about a year and a half).
And he's about to enter school as a nursery student. Oh. I have a BIG BOY now! :)
On his actual birthday, we celebrated it at home. Daddy Rob came around lunch to give Jieshua his gift..
