Ahead of the labor process, there is one activity that should not be forgotten by pregnant women is to prepare a bag that contains the needs of the mother and baby while in the Hospital later. So, when the wave of contraction comes, the mothers just lift the bag that is already available. No need to bother filling up again with various equipment when the contraction wave comes.
Khaira is also preparing a bag that she will fill with various needs for the baby later. In fact, a pregnant woman has made a check list of what she should take to the Hospital later. Careful planning is certainly much better, minimizing so that there are no mistakes and the items he needs are ready.
As of today, accompanied by Arsyilla, Khaira began to stuff the baby's various equipment into a suitcase. Starting from baby clothes, towels, bedong cloth, hats for babies, nests and gloves, to baby toiletries. While there are still special bags that contain equipment ranging from a change of clothes in the form of a shirt that makes it easier to breastfeed, diapers adult pants that she can wear after giving birth because the puerperium came, too, electric pumping, as well as some clothes for her husband who will accompany her at the Hospital.
“Mama, why is the suitcase filled Ma?” ask Arsyilla who is interested in her mother who is putting various items in the suitcase.
Khaira nodded, “Iya Darling .. This will be taken to the Hospital when giving birth to baby sister later. When Mama will give birth later, Syilla joined Grandma and Eyeang first yes, later if her sister was born, Syilla can go to the same Hospital Eyang and Grandma. Okay?” khaira explained to her daughter.
“If Syilla misses Mama how?” asked Arsyilla who seemed to be sulking to her Mama.
Khaira was unable to hold back her tears, her heart felt sad if she had to leave Arsyilla. But he has no other choice. Besides the Hospital is not good for children, he can focus more on his delivery. Her tears shed instantly.
“Mama must also miss Syilla, only at least Mama takes one to two days to give birth to a baby sister. Later if Mama is healthy, the baby's sister has been born, Brother Syilla can deh visit Mama to the Hospital as well as pick up Mama. How Dear?” asked Khaira who was wiping away her tears that had washed her face.
Hearing the explanation from his mother, apparently Arsyilla also shed her tears and scattered in his arms. “Iya Ma .. later Syilla videocall if Syilla already miss Mama ya.” answered so innocently.
“Iya Darling .. later Mama will also videocall you. Thanks Darling has always loved Mama.” he said while hugging Arsyilla and landed his kiss on Arsyilla's forehead.
Arsyilla nodded and leaned her head on her chest, “Syilla dear Mama.”
“Mama also Iaannggg Syilla.” Reply Khaira.
After hugging, the two then prepare again with the bag and equipment that Khaira will carry. Feeling everything was ready, Khaira then brought her bag and suitcase to her room. Once when the signs of labor were getting closer, her husband just lifted and put the bags into his car.
...🌺🌺🌺...
In the afternoon, Khaira and Arsyilla welcomed her husband who had just returned from office. The two women of different ages smiled broadly as they opened the door almost every afternoon for Papa Radit.
“Papa, earlier Syilla helped Mama prepare a bag and suitcase when giving birth to a baby sister later.” Arsyilla story suddenly to her Papa who just came.
“Really?” ask Radit to Arsyilla.
The little girl nodded, “Iya Pa. The bag that contains all belongs to the baby's sister. There is still one bag that contains Mama's equipment and there is Papa's shirt as well.”
Apparently Arsyilla was still so excited and told about her activities during the day with her mother. Even the clear eyes of the little girl as if sparkling can tell her activities this time that helped her Mama packing.
“Mama said, the preparation must be mature, Pa. .. lest anyone miss because the distance of the house to the Hospital is far away. Later if Syilla miss Mama, Syilla will videocall Mama yes, Pa. Phone to mobile phone Mama or Papa yes ..” story Arsyilla again who seemed to repeat his memory during the day with Khaira.
Radit squatted a little to align himself with Arsyilla, his right hand gently caressing the top of Arsyilla's head with great affection.
“Thank you dear .. You have helped Mama to get everything ready. Soon her baby sister will be born. Is Syilla happy to be a sister? There will be a new member in this house, she is your sister. Happy right?” radit asked so gently.
Arsyilla then nodded, “Senik Pa .. kan Syilla want to be Big Brother. Important in the Hospital not long yes Pa. Mama said, later if Mama is healthy and baby sister has been born, Syilla can visit Mama with Grandma and Eyang.”
“Iya Darling .. later Papa will also accompany Mama at delivery later yes. Let Mama be excited because there is a Papa who always looks after Mama. Her baby sister was also happy because once she was born she was welcomed by her Mama and Papa. It used to be Syilla too, when Syilla was born, Papa and Mama who welcomed Syilla with gratitude and happiness.” This time Radit gave an explanation to Arsyilla.
At once he wants to tell him that he also has to accompany Khaira during the process of giving birth later. He would not let his wife struggle in the bed of pain alone. He will accompany the process by process that must be lived his wife until their little baby is born. It was Radit's commitment to himself and to his wife.
“Iya Pa... important Papa and Mama do not be long yes, can Syilla kangen with Papa and Mama.” he said again who said the sense of kangennya if it should be left too long.
Radit then nodded, “It won't be long Darling .. at least it only takes 1 to 2 days. If Mama is healthy, Syilla can go to the same Hospital with Grandma and Eyang to look at Mama and bring Mama home. Okay?”
“Iya Pa... Mama don't hurt ya Ma, there is Syilla who will take care of Mama. Syilla dear Mama. I Love U, Ma ..” said Arsyilla with eyes that look so sparkling.
Khaira smiled and nodded, “I Love U Too, Syilla Unfortunately Mama.”
