Choose the day for the New Year

"Wah-wah!" Baby crying came out from Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Chengdu at 11:03 and 11:04 yesterday. Doctors declared, "A pair of twin boys were born." 24-year-old Liu Yan formally became a mother. The infants are less than 2,500 grams, and they look very small. Liao Yan couldn't have imagined the twins to be born on this day. These premature children just stayed in the mother belly for 33 weeks, and could not wait to come out.

Over 9 o'clock yesterday morning, Liao Yan found herself bleeding when going to the toilet. Doctors told her not to move since the child is coming out. "Didn't you tell me to have at least another two weeks?" Unprepared Liao Yan called her husband Xiao Yu, who was far away in Hainan and thought it as her wife's joke. Liu Yan called her mother then. "You like to lie to me." Her mother did not believe either until Liao Yan was worried into tears.

Xiao Yu hurried back by taxi, but still failed to witness his son being born. "Flying from Hainan to Chengdu via Guangzhou", Xiao Yu looked quite tired when met with her wife at about 5 pm. The premature twin children were in special care and couldn't be met until 3 days later. Xiao Yu is a soldier and he was introduced to Liu Yan by friends. Liao Yan hopes that her sons to become soldiers with guns like their father after growing up.
