On Baby A's birthday, the c-section surgery went as planned. I walked into the OR around 9:30am and was pushed out around 2 hours later. W was instructed to wait outside while the team was getting me prepared for anesthesia. He then got invited to come in and sat next to me while the team worked on getting Baby A out of me 😂. W was a good DJ and Baby A was born while Taylor Swift's Shake It Off was being played. So...did I feel any pain during this life-changing surgery? No, I didn't. I had a spinal block. I never felt any type of pain during the surgery. Getting the anesthesia injected - however - was the most uncomfortable part of the surgery. There was a lot of pressure. I felt my back being pulled or pushed, or something. It just felt very uncomfortable, not painful, but very uncomfortable. It was also hard to try leaning toward the source of that uncomfortableness.

March has swung by quicker than usual. Actually, this year has been moving at a fast pace even though it feels like nothing much has been done. The "stay at home" days are not bad, after all, I've had a couple of years of practice of it 😅

| Mr. L brought Panda home one day, hmm of all things we had from them that day...my first pick is the veggie box... |

| Amidst the pandemic, I started doing research from home again. Whenever Mr. L and I are working, Duke is always right next to either one of us, or sometimes right "on" one of us. Work from home simply means more naps on laps for Duke! |
The "quarantine days" also got me to paint my nails haha. My attempt at painting a smiley face kinda worked, though a bit like Halloween-themed smiley face 😎
Stay safe, people.
