Little Tsui's 1st Photo Album

My Long Waited Day Finally Came!

24 Sept 2007

My Long Waited Day Finally Came! My next Gynae visit and Detailed scan appointment! The 1st time Little Tsui can take photos...

We arrived at the hospital at 10 plus, then after a breakfast, i did the scan at about 11am. A very detailed scan of Little Tsui and finally the question have been answered. It's a boy! The Radiologist say " See... you can see the p***s, it's a boy!" (Ok, ok... that mean my six sense is accurate, it's a boy!)

The scan allow us to see the placenta, head, chest, abdomen, internal organs, arms, legs and facial. When the radiologist is doing the scan for the lips, little Tsui is acting naughty again! He is trying to suck his thumb, so covering the lips. I've to turn to lay on different side, in order to move him to a better position for the "photo-taking". We can even see him swallowing in the scan. Not too obvious cos it's a 2D scan, not 3D scan.

After we collect the report at about 12.30, meet up with my gynae. We ask him a long list of questions, including our upcoming trip to HK, pop concerts, cramps, food intake and etc... Then i got a bit of infection again. OMG! When is it going off...?

As for the report, everything is normal and good.

Quoted from my report, Single foetus lying longitudinally with cephalic presentation. Gestatinal age is around 20 weeks... Heartbeat is about 150 beats per minute. No identifiable foetal abnormality is seen... Echoes seens between the foetal thighs implying that it is of the male gender... Estimated Foetal Weight is 358gm, Length is about 14.5cm.

Dreams sweet dreams

Errgghhh... Right or Left or Front? I dunno which position to sleep. I'm starting to feel the weight at my tummy. Before marriage, i love to sleep on my right. After marriage i love to sleep on my left. Then now i dunno which position is more comfortable... Right or Left or Front? Little Tsui which is your favorite? I plan to get a small cushion or body pillow to help me...

Then at night are having those irritating leg cramps. Now highest record is same night 4 cramps! What to do, just keep massaging lo...

Have a sweet dreams!

Knock, knock... Is it you?

I think I'm feeling little Tsui inside me. I think so... I can't confirm the feeling... Is it you? A slight movement sometime inside my tummy. Is it grumbling stomach or it's you? A strange and magical feeling. Hoping to feel his/her kicks soon... Going to my scan soon... People that see me and my bump have make a "confirmed" guess of the gender. It's a boy la... Is it a he? or a chance to be a she?

I finally got the seat!

After 4 months and 3 weeks of "suffering", i finally got the seat! On the train! Haha...

Maybe my little bump look a bit obvious with my black top and skirt ... a lady is willing to give up her seat after I've been standing for 4 stations (going toward Woodlands from Bishan). This also prove that wearing black can't make a person look slim...

But I didn't take the seat, cos I'm getting off in another 2 stops. So this is my 1st experience.

Thank you anyway!

I'm getting bigger!

I just got bigger within 2 months... Bigger in size and weight... so "scary"... as I'll be growing bigger and bigger everyday till Feb 2008.

My Weight

In July: 53.5kg

In Sept: 56kg (WOW!)

My Tummy size

July (About 11weeks)

Back then , i can still wear my usual jeans and button up. I think tummy is about 70cm. My bottom is 91cm.

For meals, just the usual 3 main meals plus sometime snack between meal.

Sept (Abt 19 weeks)

Now, a lot of my pre-maternity bottoms can't be worn. I'm wearing a maternity jeans, with my tummy measuring 84cm and bottom at 94cm!

Now, i take Bigger breakfast, normal lunch, light dinner. The breaks and meals in between will be keep light, just not to feel hungry and uncomfortable.

So pregnancy is a very good excuse to eat and gain weight!

Haha...

Any craving yet? I realise i love to eat chicken! Not a big craving whereby i have the urge to eat in the middle of the night, just feel like eating chicken wings more often.

Hee...

Happy growing, my little baby!
