Adhitya Putri Gives Birth to Second Child, Ridwan Ghani Reveals the Name and Its Meaning

Kapanlagi.com - Ridwan Ghani and Adhitya Putri are currently happy. The couple, who got married in 2017, has just been blessed with their second child, who was born healthy and safe on Saturday (12/9/2020).

When met at the Tembuni Birth Center, Kemang, South Jakarta, Ridwan Ghani gave a little hint about the name of their second son, which will be announced during the aqiqah.

"We'll announce it later, in front of Malaika, when the aqiqah is held 7 days from now. We agreed not to delay it, if there's a blessing, let's just do it right away, because during the PSBB, the requirements for worship are anything, we'll share the food and also let them know the name, please pray for it," said Ridwan Ghani to KapanLagi.com.

1. Meaning of the Second Child's Name

The name of the child proposed by Adhitya Putri turned out to have a deep meaning. Malaika, which comes from the word 'angel', is expected to bring goodness.

"Angel, it's actually my wife's idea, but one thing for sure, the name is a prayer, even though it sounds bad like a life-taker, but if it's not taken, it might also suffer. But I believe angels are created for goodness, I still don't know, I'll ask Putri later," he said.

2. Deviation from the Prediction

When asked about the childbirth process of their baby, Ridwan Ghani revealed that Putri exceeded the initial prediction mentioned by the doctor. However, Putri's childbirth process is still within a safe timeframe.

"The birth process of the second child deviated from our prediction, but it's in line with the doctor's initial examination, which was very early on September 12th. Then, Maher's first child was born two weeks before the expected date, so Putri and I prepared two weeks in advance, but it keeps getting delayed. Now it's exactly 40 weeks, how about giving birth normally? Alhamdulillah, if it's a normal delivery, the deadline is two weeks before and after, so no need to worry," said Ridwan Ghani.

3. The Birth Process of the Second Child

Baby Malaika was born at 13:50 WIB in a healthy and safe condition. However, Ridwan Ghani and Adhitya Putri had to go through a long process before their second son was born.

"Around 1 am, the contractions started and the process was very fast. Originally, we planned to go to the doctor's appointment at 8 am, but I couldn't bear it and woke up at 4:30 am. We prepared ourselves, I called the hospital and they said the rooms were full, but I should come and hopefully someone would be discharged later. We arrived at the clinic at 7 am and still didn't get a room, so we were placed in the doctor's practice room. They checked my ECG, contractions were good, checked the dilation, then moved us to the waiting room, just temporarily, not very comfortable. I was sleepy, and my wife hadn't rested yet, so I held her hand tightly until 11:30 pm. At 11 pm, things started to get out of control, it was difficult to breathe, so they started the application. At 11:30 pm, I contacted the midwife, the room was ready, we entered the room and the dilation was already 6-7, then quickly reached 9. There was a nurse and a midwife, and when the midwife left (to find the doctor), the baby's head appeared. The midwife came back and informed the doctor, then immediately came back to assist. Alhamdulillah, the baby was born, a healthy baby boy weighing 3.17 kg and measuring 49 cm," he concluded.
