Break record measurement at 101cm!

29 Dec 2007

I've break record! A 101cm tummy measurement. My belly button have all surfaced... So cute, and a bit popping out. Little Tsui is getting limited place inside. I think he is coming to 2kg soon and mummy is going to hit another personal record of weighting more than 65kg. (Ha... while typing this, Little Tsui kick and move. I think he agreed!)

Luckily, i've yet to see any water retention on me. Still able to wear covered shoes. But tummy is getting itchy. I've try very hard not to scratch as other mummies say the stretch marks will appear. So i just keep applying lotion.

Still have craving for Chocolates, any Chocolate flavoured items, Cheese, Rojak, Tao Suan with yu tiao and Chicken!

Countdown 45 days to EDD! Countdown 3 days to year 2008!

Happy New Year!

Merry Christmas!

DID and BROUGHT Lists

22 Dec 2007

Based on the TO-DO and TO-BUY LISTS which i wrote out earlier, we have made up some decisions

1. After our maternity tours to Gleneagles and Mount Alvernia. We have decided to go Mount Alvernia for delivery. 1st, the price, 2nd, spacious and nice room (see pic on the right), 3rd, like the service personnel (very friendly) and lastly, Gleneagles maternity dept is under renovation till Mar.

2. I've ask Dr. Chong about breast feeding and whether i need to go for pre-natal classes. He mentioned not really needed. But he still remind me not to simulate my n*pple, as it will induce labour. He dun wan me to have early labour. I read that on books, so NOTED!

3. We are still thinking of a chinese name for baby. Have shortlisted some, but some of the meaning is not so good, have to restart again. (Haiz... should I confirm Kayden for him?)

4. I got my driving license le...

5. I need to start packing some things back to my parent house. And also start packing for the admin-bag.

6. Still considering to paint the room for baby. But Ka Man a bit lazy and not very willing...

7. Discuss with my boss on my maternity leave. I might start to go on leave on my 38/39 wks, which is from 4 Feb. This is only workable if i dun 've early labour (maybe in 37wk)

TO-BUY-LIST

1. A Cabinet for baby stuffs. Might plan to get ikea one, that cost only $89. Or just go neighborhood's furniture shop to see.

2. Baby Cot. Went to look around and compare prices. All of them cost abt $300.

3. Baby Stroller. Comparing the spec, i think i quite like Combi Ricco W KV 680, it's light weight and have reversible handle. http://www.taising.com/images/Combi_kv680.jpg
Cost abt $488.

4. Not getting Car seat and Baby bottle sterilizer

5. Water boiler (Budget abt $100, plan to use vouchers to buy)

Christmas is coming... But i dun feel the Christmas mood yet...

32wk Gynae visit

19 Dec 2007

Went to the gynae today, pop a few qns and scan little Tsui again. Very active and strong heart beat. Due to his position, his face is facing my back, i can't see his big eyes this time. Maybe next visit lo... He is weighing 1.94kg now. The body size is at 32wk but his head is bigger. OMG! It's a 35 wk bb head. Oh, oh... i think it'll be a tough labour later. And for mummy, i weigh 64kg now. Wahhh... I've gain 12 kg le... Then the ongoing infection is still around. Haiz... Dr. Chong will schedule to do a test during my 36 wks, to make sure the infection is ok for normal delivery. If not i'll have to opt for c-section. Cross finger...

Looking forward for the next visit which will be 2 wks away. As EDD is getting closer, the frequency of gynae visits get more.

He winks at us!

11 Dec 2007

I need to visit the gynae as i need to get a doctor letter in order for me to take my driving test on 13 Dec. But Dr. Chris Chong is not in Singapore. I've to make a trip to another gynae (that Dr. Chris Chong recommend). He is Dr. Henry Cheng at The Women's Specialist Centre.

So after my customer visit on 11 Dec, we went down to Bishan to see him. A very friendly doctor. After a few routine questions, taking my blood pressure, weight and height, he have to do a scan, just to make sure Little Tsui is ok.

Little Tsui still have very strong heart beat. And Dr Cheng double confirm it's a boy. (Sighz...) Then i request to see his face. Then we saw him winks at us! Hee... So cute.

Dr. Cheng say Little Tsui have a round face. I find Little Tsui have my eyes and nose. Kaman is a bit jealous... Haha...

After that, he issue me a doctor letter for my driving test and wish me good luck!

P.S. I passed my driving test on 13 Dec. Thank you for all the lucks "given" by all and Little Tsui. Cos your little wink works!

Countdown less than 60 days...

Fighting!

These few weeks, Little Tsui has been "Fighting!". He've been moving a lot inside on my way to work, after lunch, before dinner, before sleep. For now, i not only feel the little kicks and movement. I can feel his movement from right to left, from top to bottom then sometime, something hard on one side of my tummy, as if he is putting his elbow or knee there. Very interesting view to see my tummy "changes shape". Every night I'll spend a bit of time staring at my tummy, cos it's so cute!

I'm sure... he is going to be a martial art expert when he is out...
