28 week

I seem to be feeling more tired as i hit 3rd trimester. Busy month from shoots, thank god i survived.

Today check up is officially 3rd trimester. Baby weight is 1.38kg and mine is 62.2kg, OMG....her head is below, with feet kicking my ribs, no wonder so pain.

Before check up, i got food poisoning a week ago, called Dr Wong again for advice as i was throwing up buckets of water, diarrhea, kind of not happy when she sound impatient, maybe i call her so late but my urine was reddish plus really bad threw up. I find that she always think no problem, but what if leh?

Also Bern got Shingles, which she said i should call gynea to check if it will affect me cos i was at her place recently, 10pm...so she sound more impatient.....sigh......

Wardrobe

After doing some research and discussion, both of us had come to a point where we decided to get our gal a wardrobe instead of a dresser. We went to IKEA today and decided on a customized wardrobe as well as a computer table for myself.

Takashimaya Baby Fair

Today we went to Takashimaya baby fair to look see look see and end up nothing much to buy. However, Anna (Ivy's sis) bought for our baby gal a bumbo chair which was at a very good discount. The bumbo chair together with a tray cost her about $60. I did some testing on the baby carrier. The brand were baby bjorn and LAscal. Lascal looks more secure for me but it was more expensive. The carrier will be pending first as we have still alot of time to do research.

24 weeks

Just once every month checkup. For the whole month, i got constipation till i got to use suppository even email Dr Wong to confirm if can use. Finally got the harden stool out of my rectum but my heartburn is so bad. Oh i did call Dr Wong about my hip pain cos it is so bad. I barely can walk after a few days of pain. I thought i will be bed-ridden.....She assured that it will be fine, it normal.

BTW: look at the scan, my darling girl like to put her hand on her cheek.

weight: 640g is normal weight.

p/s: my piles really serious, finally after Dr Wong take a look, she knows I'm not exaggerating.

20th - detail scan

Today is the most worried day of my life as my baby is doing her detail scan. Both Ivy and myself were waiting patiently and anxiously in the TMC laboratory. Finally, it was our turn for the detail scan, Ivy was first to get into the room for the test. After waited for a few minutes, the nurse called me to go into the room. The moment i entered the room, Ivy shouted to me "Darling, it is a boy" and i replied "那里可能"......she was actually teasing me -.-

Thanks god, all the scans look normal for my girl and both of us can finally let go of the rock in our heart.

(weight of baby at 20 weeks - 318grams, look at last picture on right, she is resting her cheek on her hand)

Baby Stuff

Today, we went to Ivy's sis place to collect some baby stuff from her. They gave us their baby stroller which had only use twice as their baby doesn't want to sit in it. After that, we went to Philips sale to purchase a few things. We gotten another great discount of 40% staff rate as we approached one of their staff who was queuing to pay her stuff. She told her to get the things we wanted and she will use her staff pass to help us get the staff rate.

16th week

This is my baby scan in 16th week. Everything look fine and she is ready for the 20th week detail scan. Dr Wong said most likely is a girl and she said 90% is a girl based on her experience.......hopefully she is right i would prefer my first child to be a girl.

Stockholm Cot bed from Mothercare

We got a good deal for a cot bed in Mothercare at 50% discount ($425). The week before that was selling at $859 with a dresser and I was very tempted to buy but Terence doesn't seem to like the idea of buying it immediately. Luckily, the wait was worth it. Anything above $300 will entitle you a free membership from Mothercare. Membership will be automatically renew annually when you purchase anything above $300 within that year.
