A new birth!

Supriya Behera is a friend of mine who lives next door, and we have been good buddies since forever. Since I moved into this apartment. A year and a half ago she got married to a great guy. Then she went away to live in Gurgaon. Gurgaon is near Delhi so I only could contact her through FB and sometimes calling. But I so badly missed her. She came back a couple of times. Once because she contracted HepA a month after marriage, because of the water. The next time was good news though, she was pregnant! Expectant! It was slightly crazy to see my childhood friend being a future mother, she is only two years older than me. That was 8 months ago. And I got the good news yesterday. She delivered a healthy baby boy! I am so happy to hear they are both well. She had to undergo C-section so she would not be able to move so much now, but still we are all happy and relieved that she is okay. I am waiting to see them when they get home.

@simone10 I love them too. Since I've been in this building, there have been so many babies who were born and we all watched them grow one after another. The eldest of them will enter her teen life next year. How they grow and teach us unconditional love!

Gave birth to a baby, whether boy or girl is an amazing event. I had given birth to two baby girls via C-section. Being a mom is an amazing experience. Congratulations for your friend, hope she and her baby healthy.

that goes on without saying! She's been looking forward to this day, partly for the joy of being a mom and partly for that uneasy feeling in the body to end.

Congratulations to your friend, it is very common now to make a Cesarean section, less stress for the newborn baby.

that's true, and less stress for the mother during delivery too. But it will take time for her to recover from this operation.
