Hello to Pickle and Papad!

It's been quite a couple of weeks.

An emergency C-section at 35 weeks 3 days.
Two beautiful little baby boys.
Jaundice.
An infection after my surgery.
Waiting for release from the hospital.

But yes...two beautiful little baby boys. Beautiful to me and Vijay, that is. All four of us have been in the hospital for over ten days now. Little Peanut has been at home for a week with Vijay's parents and brother. We've never been away from her that long.

And today we're ready to go home. So yayy!

Their jaundice will need to be monitored carefully but the doctors say it should be all fine now. So ... as before. Give us the good vibes, people!

And thanks for all the good wishes in advance, just in case I can't log on again for a while.

  1. I am sure you might have heard this before but putting the babies in the sun does work. Arhaan had jaundice at birth too and for the first two weeks it didnt go, so the paed (in khandanee Melbourne hospital) suggested what our grandmothers have been saying all along..wheeling his bassinet to the room's window and giving him dhoop ka takaur. Also making the babies have a lot of liquids so they flush out the toxins.
    And it goes without saying that we wish you a happy life now that the condiments to Life with Peanut are here.

    Hoe every one's doing great.

    I remember one of your very old posts about playing 'beech ka bandar' with Peanut and thinking that after the 'next baby' you guys can play doubles tennis -- I guess God also wanted you to have a match referee :)

    BTW, I am a long time reader...probably commenting for the 1sttime.

    Congratulation to you all again:)
