Tiny hand

I am totally amazed by just how tiny this little hand is.   wow

And more about the hospital stay.  From Facebook posts made at the time.

A few more things....
Which ones of these are followed in other countries? Attitudes towards these are changing here but since pregnant women are loathe to go against what everyone says they should do, even though there are posters on the walls of the hospital contradicting these things, grandmas, aunts and mothers often insist the ‘rules’ should be followed.
When a woman is pregnant, she can’t go to a wedding because two wonderful things can’t happen at the same time.
After birth, the mother can’t wash her hair or have a shower for a month.
When the mother leaves the hospital, she MUST wear a winter coat, a headband, a warm hat, long warm pants and more clothes underneath the winter coat.
When the baby leaves hospital, it MUST be wrapped in a thick blanket, wear a warm hat and have its eyes covered until it arrives home. (The funny thing about this one was that Terri wanted Sally to wear socks but her father laughed at her saying “Why?”)
Other things about the hospital and the ward Terri was in.
Nobody bothers to turn the ring tones down on their phones. The first time is excusable. The second… maybe.
The first (and only) time they changed the bedclothes except when Terri changed beds, was after she had been in the same bed for five days. She was there for 10 days.
There are no orderlies. Family members move patients from place to place. They even have to lift mothers from a gurney to the bed straight after they have had surgery.
There is a rule of “No cooking appliances in the rooms”. And despite being caught and warned, Terri’s mum (and I imagine others) cooked every day in the room. One night we lost power in the building for no apparent reason.
There are two fire exits on the floor. One at each end. One was locked all the time wth a bicycle lock and the other was locked at 10:00pm each night and unlocked at 7:00 am. The only exits from the floor are by lifts which are probably shut down in a fire.
Chinese people tend to smoke anywhere. I once saw a guy smoking as he was getting blood taken. I caught one of the fathers smoking in the bathroom stared at his cig and then gave him a dirty look. He looked back at me as if I was being offensive. I saw him smoking a little later in the stairwell. At least it wasn’t 5 meters from the room where the new mums are prepped for the delivery room.
To sterilise a baby’s bottle. I saw most people rinsing the bottle under a tap (The water here needs to be boiled before drinking) and then swilling it out with boiling water. No washing of the teat. Just a quick swill and off they went. A cleaner told me there was no need to wash the bottles each time. Just swill and use.
