It’s all about birthdays on Girls Talk this month and about birthday wishes this week. I’ve already had my birthday this year and I’m happy to say that I did get my birthday wish.
It was July of 2010 when I found out I was pregnant with Ziggy. I was super elated and excited when I finally got the confirmation in December that we were having a boy. So, my Christmas wish came true. But since I knew that I was due to give birth on March 13, my birthday wish was of course, to be able to have an easy normal delivery (like my first two) and have a healthy and happy baby. Aside from that, I wished that Kai will not be at work when I go on labor and that Ziggy will be born on a weekend, on an even number date and on February (my birth month and not March). Haha! That’s my thing, I guess. Zoe was born on a Saturday, November 10, while Ziya was born on a Friday, January 2.
So, did my wish come true? Most of it did. Despite Ziggy’s double cord coil, which dragged the labor process to six hours, I had a pretty easy delivery. My water broke at 10pm on a Sunday night, while Kai was home. I wasn’t in pain at all until the last hour of labor. I was still able to have a normal delivery despite the double cord coil. In most cases, that would have resulted to a ceasarian section already. So, when Ziggy came out after a few pushes, it was really amazing. He was born on Monday so that’s part of the wish that didn’t come true. Hahaha! But the date was February 28 (an even number!), exactly a week after my birthday. So, it turned out almost perfectly. But most importantly, I was given a healthy, happy bundle of joy. I am still amazed at how blessed I am to have my Ziggy.
This makes me start thinking about my birthday wish for next year…….hmmmm, I wish for a really nice and relaxing vacation! Hahaha! Just kidding, although, that wouldn’t be so bad. However, what I really wish for is to be able to celebrate my birthday with Ziggy by throwing a huge party for him and myself. Hopefully, that will just be one of many birthdays that we will be celebrating together.
What’s your birthday wish?

Wow congratulations 1) for a bouncing baby 2) for the wishes that came true and 3) for a normal delivery! You’re one lucky girl! Ü Cesarean is just too painful… and the recovery takes a lot of time too. *sigh
