A new life begins

Christine gave birth to her first son last Saturday. I visited her at the hospital with the others today after work. She was quite surprised to see me because she didn't know I was in HK.

Both the mother and the son were fine, although the baby came out a week earlier, and they needed to open the womb to take the baby out. She was very careful and nervous for this pregnancy, because she had an infection in the amniotic fluid a few years ago for her first pregnancy and lost the baby. I am really happy for her and her husband. She is not young to have baby after all.

I didn't see the baby, but the father showed us the boy's pictures taken right after birth. The boy looks exactly like Christine.

The hard work has just started. Be a good mom, Christine.
