A big BABY

I had to be screened for Gestational Diabetes due to the size of my baby from the detailed scan. The Glucose Tolerance Test is a horrible experience with the grossly sweet syrup (to be drank under a nurse's watchful eyes within 5 minutes) and 3 blood and urine tests. Mercifully, I was not diagnosed with GD.

The "bad" news is that baby is 1.30 kg! At 26 weeks, he is the size of a 29 week old baby. He has almost doubled in weight since the detailed scan so my gynae has specified that I should exercise more to "qualify" for natural birth... This feels like mission impossible... =(

You and Me... always...

This is another of the nights when I have insomia or wake in the middle of the night... and to be productive, I decided to post the pictures of our time kite flying (as promised to bb) at West Coast Park...

It has also been 5 years since I started dating G. He has been incredibly sweet to me and my family throughout our courtship and marriage. I know that I can always count on him and am blessed to have him as my hubby =)

Dear baby,

See my bump in the picture? That's where you are growing right now. We are starting to pull our act together and will be getting ready for your arrival after your daddy is done with his exam in June. Meanwhile, keep growing healthily and know that we are looking forward to welcoming you in a few months time!

We had a visit from mummy's friend JY from Malaysia today. Did you know that another baby is growing in auntie? The good thing is that you will have lots of friends around your age to play with.

Your loving mummy (despite swollen ankles, sleepless nights, carpel tunnel syndrome etc)...
