LILIAN
After an extreme night of extractions
and brown mucus,
my girlfriend Dody Thiel and I walked
to the OLVG in Amsterdam-East.
For forty-five minutes I pressed twelve times...
and without an epidural... or surgery...,
and in pain since two o'clock in the morning... boy, oh boy!
The contractions started after an hour and a half...
It took her a while to pass through the narrow channel...
After trying all kinds of positions
during the contractions,
she has finally come into the world!
Finally, she is here, my hairy pretty girl,
Looking at me with black beady eyes...
Lilian is her name...
Oh, I just can't believe it...
So beautiful, so sweet, so small...
and she weighed 2778 grams!
