Updates

Baby is now 2.89kg..and Im a step nearer to the mark of 70kg...a total weight gain of 16kg so far...tummy getting bigger and bigger..walking getting harder n harder....more n more tired..how i hope i can stop work now n rest...feel like sleeping throughout the two days course i attended in the office on thur n fri.


Dr Chan est to deliver the bb in mid mar. induce or not? not sure..if bb can come naturally, thts the best..and what i wanted also. My bp is not high, but dr say its climbing...she est sugar lvl will climbs also...so she dont wan to risk any possible complications..since i already hold bb for so long..wats the extra two weeks more. However, she cfm thats theres still sufficient fluid inside for bb..i guess it also means bb still hv some more space..she hasnt engaged..dr chan again est mebi two wks more b4 she get engaged..but a bit contrary with what she told me the previous time.haaa.thk she forgotten wat she said..two wks ago, she say, bb shld be engage in the next week..but already two wks gone..n she now say mebi another two wks.haaa


anyway, bb again uses her hand to block her face...dont let me see her again..
but her hand very ba ba...as commented by dr chan. Dr Chan is satisfied with her weight, and she say bb is almost ready to come out n see us.


My toothache is causing me prob now..dr chan wanted me to settle it all at once..even if theres a need for extraction, just go ahead. One of the dentists quite worri to do extraction during my third trim, cos he scad w induce labour..so i told gyne abt it. Dr Chan sounds a bit doubtful with what the dentist said...anyway she commented, if it induce, laobur, then come in lor..anyway its abt time also..its better than having all pains ,tooth pain, labour pain and later breast pain...haa...quite true indeed..So I seek a second opinion, my long time dentist Dr Loh, she hard to make apt with, but heng, after a conversaton with her over the phone, she understd my urgency and agreee to slot me in today..she believed tht there shldb be a prob with extraction...just tht im wori abt lossing another tooth..(tho its at the back..the very last one cause by wisom tooth prob previously..)..i shall see what she advised bah...scad scad...3 more hrs to go...

My Valentine Day

Last Sat is Valentine day..my first val day after I'm married...


Didnt expect a lot, cos its just seems to be any other normal day...dont feel like gonig outside for dinner also, cos its be very expensive..

But quite glad that dear actually ordered flowers for me before I mentioned about it. Hes usually a bit slow in such thing..but this time, he seems to be faster...(prob also bec someone from his company actually went around n take orders).





In the evening, we actually cook ourselves. The theme is western food..our main course is chicken chop with baked potatoes, asparagas, campbell soup, fruit juice and our fav icekachang.

We took about two hr to prepare.....its qutie fun afterall...and its cheap.haaa

The chicken chop turned up to be a bit hard...but still eatable lah...potatoes are nice..we had a very fulfiling meal.






The only thing I dont like is that my hb went off to do the cleaning up after the meal...leaving me alone untill late at night..cant blame him cos he need to clean up mah...but by the time he finish his work..its already late. So I requested him to spend some time with me in the living room watching dvd..with aircon on....and eating our icekachang together....

Updates to my medical appointment

An update to my latest medical appointment on last Thurs.

It wont be long before baby arrives....because bb is now 2.5kg. Dr Chan is suprised, cos baby should averagly weigh at 2kg at that point in time around 34wks. It is consisdered as the max of the max of her scale (she always has a bar chart on her ultrascan scan videoscreen).

She mentioned that she jus worried that if the baby gets too big, its be messy and difficult for me to manage. The ideal weight for me to be manageable should be around 3-3.2kg. Hence, she believed that the ideal period for me to give birth should be around 35wks to 38wks...omg, 35wks means the subsequent week (which is today onwards actually). Means, I got to be on standby, it can be anytime. I better clear my work in the office faster and alert my boss. She believed that I defintely should not be holding till 40wks, which is by end of Mar(initial edd).

She has not told me what and who should I contact when I feel the pain, she say she will tell me in my next apt,whcih is at 36wks), but if I happen to feel any pain, can go down to tmc emergency section immediately.

I dont think bb be coming out at 35wks, in fact 35wks still considered as premature...only after 36wks, then is considered as safer bah....

Its pretty contradicting, on one hand, I hope that I have a chubby baby, but on the other hand, if i really keep holding on despite the dr advice to give birth, i got to bear the consequences...I decided to seek the dr advice when is the ideal time to give birth..which i feel there a high tendency for inducement for me. Hope to have more update during my next week appointment.

I can really feel the baby movement very aggressively yesterday, I have a strong feeling that bb seems to be arranging her position and might be engaging...dr chan did mentioned that bb has turned down, and likely to be engage by this week.Getting more and more nervous....

I had a bad leg cramp yesterday night...its so terrible that my muscle ache this morning...Usually I shout for my hubby when I had leg cramp, but yesterday encounters is the worst...He usually will try to bend my leg to stretch my muscle and its okie very shortly...however, after he did the same thing yesterday, it doesnt cure...the cramp came again...it only stop after some time. Can feel the muscle ache when I got up in the morning..couldnt sleep well after the cramp...cos I kept feeling that the cramp seems to be coming bk again..

Today my left leg swell..its swelling very badly..that I feel the last two toes seems to be numb..the leg look like "zhu jiao:"..haaaa

Despite that, I still went out today...I went to hockhua with my mum to buy tonics for my confinement, then proceed to redhill to pray,then redhill market for lunch, then ikea to buy my computer chair,rug and a pretty flower wall lamp for my baby...last stop is my gdma house.

What a long day...
