Updates updates!

Mummy felt some water leaking.. unsure if it was actually discharge or the water bag is actually leaking... but after awhile the leaking stopped.

Daddy was afraid that i cant differentiate between discharge and AF hence, ask mummy to call joycelyn.. Joycelyn told us to go down to the hosp for a check if unsure.. so the kiasi daddy drove down to the hosp to monitor :P

Had VE, CTG, BP check, Temp check and all these cost us $66. But mummy is glad to found out that she's actually 1cm dilated! Ok, better than nothing right hehee.. Joycelyn sent mummy home and ask mummy to see her tomorrow to see if the water level is really dropping.. and talk abt inducing..

Mummy and Daddy do not wish to induce.. but we shall see what she says tomorrow .. hopefully labour can start later in the wee hours.. so mummy do not need to go through the pain for inducing =\ jia you baby, please push more downwards haha.

Some photos taken at the observation room .. wahaha



the graph from the CTG strap. shows the baby heart beat and mummy's contractions.

very orbiang curtain they have hahaha..


The midwife told mummy to admit if there's any painful contractions in the midnight.. she say most likely i wont be able to laugh or look so smiley liao hahahaha...

Updates on my week 39 check up today.. Charlotte is still very comfy inside the womb palace and she refuse to come out... haha very obedient lah.. maybe she still tot that "daddy says cannot come out so soon" Hello baby it's OCTOBER!!!! hahaha

Mummy weight gained 100g, baby gained 200g which is now 3.4kg for her.. well, it's a pure estimation.. so hopefully doctor's estimation is +20% so she is only like ard 3.1kg ??
Doctor did not give mummy the green light to induce today because firstly, baby is not >3.5kg, water level still ok, and mummy's BP is normal too. Then again, she's afraid of fail induction and mummy may end up going for emergency c section..

So how to make baby come out faster?
No1: Walk More!!
No2: Intercourse (Hormones prostaglandins which is contained in semen will help to kick start labour) wahaha... ok maybe we can try that lol.

Doctor did a membrane sweep for mommy and mommy came home with a soaked pad with dark red discharge.. wah lao damn scary. anyway what is membrane sweep?

aiyoh baby pls come out soon... if not you'll end up like around 3.6kg at birth at least. haha..

Ok, we are hoping to welcome Charlotte this coming weekend!

Mummy went for her 38th week check up yesterday and good news is that baby's weight gain is back to normal! 300g for 2 weeks compared to previous time 700g haha.. Joycelyn ask me to walk more and eat less.. next check up will be on 7/10 and we will see if need to induce anot.. as Joycelyn is afraid that 3.5kg baby will be alittle tough for me to push her out hehe.. hope baby weight has stablised so mummy no need to go for induce.

Mummy cannot sleep well recently... perhaps too excited that Charlotte is coming? hehe.. so every night i will hit daddy a few times to stop him from grinding his damn teeth!!!! It is so irritating and i really feel like slapping him.. and i think one day i will. ha ha

Tomorrow mummy will visit Dr Joycelyn again.. perhaps for the final time before Charlotte decide to come out and greet mummy and daddy? Or rather let mummy and daddy decide for u ? haha coz might need to induce.. we'll see what Joycelyn say tomorrow..

Mummy went to visit baby Elijah yesterday.. he's your little cousin hehe .. same generation in our big big family :):) [4th gen] So we've have 2 babies to play with during next yr's CNY! and i'm damn looking forward to it hehee..

He's only 4 day old haha so adorable..


Ok mummy need to rant now. lol. I told my mom that i might need to induce because the baby might be too big for natural birth and she end up telling so many of the auntie and uncle and end up all of them are against the idea.

Yes i know it's not consider "natural" if we force the baby out before he/she decides when she wanna come out. but why cant they think of it in another way that it can prevent any complications which may even impose a danger to the baby or the mother, me myself? and ya my mom end up saying that that's why they say female doctors are not good blah blah blah... whatever shit lah. I dun want to end up not listening to the gynae's advise and end up with something that i might regret for life.

Anyway this is my own decision. It's not up to her to decide. Even if i go ahead with the inducing, she can do nothing about it. Yup, that's me.

Updates abt my previous visit to Joycelyn Wong :)

Joycelyn was shocked to see that baby weight was around 3.1kg.. so she re-measured again and again till the 4th time and then baby weight was estimated to be around 2.8kg.

Charlotte was only 2.2kg 2 weeks prior to the check up and she've gained 700g within 2 weeks! As for me, i've gained another 2kg!... my last visit i only gained 200g .. so we ask me to control my diet and watch what i eat..

She suspect that i have GD and ask me to go for the test.. many people told me that it's quite useless and a waste of money to do the test now since i'm going to due anytime.. but cammie told me that if the mother has GD, the nurses gotta monitor the baby on many other several factors.. So i went ahead with the test.. Fasted for 9 hours and waited 2 hrs in the clinic to do 2 blood test..
After all the needles and stuff i think i wont be afraid of blood tests anymore.. 2 tubes within 2 hrs hoho! how exciting! but then again i'm still afraid of the drip that i think i'm most likely to kena... i read stories abt how long and thick the needle is !

oh yea i did the strep B swap test too.. and experience my first VE.. which was actually quite painful ah.. imagine the midwife gotta do VE for you while u are having contractions! omg that's even more painful lor! (i think)

The staff called me on Tue to inform me abt the results for both GD and the swap test.. both turn out normal :D Yeah good news haha..

Now i'm waiting for my next check up which is on 1st oct.. Joycelyn said if baby not out by then, can induce liao coz if not she will be too big for natural birth... i dun want to go under the knife.. coz if i kena emergency c sect or what the bill can go up to as high as 10K!! that's what wee is worrying now too.. as he did not set aside such a huge amount just for the delivery fees! sigh just pray that i'm going to have a smooth delivery! :D

Soon we will be able to see Baby Charlotte liao hehehe! i'm excited yet nervous and scare. ha

No more baby room for Charlotte :(

No more nursery room for Charlotte liao.. all my plans ruined.. :(
Have done up some of the deco in the room but heng it's not alot.. if not my efforts will be really wasted...

The geomancer told us that the master bed room has a weird shape and it's not advisable to sleep in.. so my mil is not taking the master room. Instead, she'll be taking the room which was intended for Charlotte.. what to do.. hahaa but inside me, i was laughing away... where got such nonsense that the MASTER BED ROOM cannot sleep one.. ridiculous lor. If u tell me that's it's one of the common rooms, maybe it's not that hilarious hahaha. Anyway it's not our flat.. and we didnt pay for the fengshui analysis too.. if not we'll seek for a 2nd opinion..

Now we have shifted the cot into our room, placed beside me. the parquet in my room got scratched while wee and the mom was doing the move.. since they ask me NOT TO SEE or TOUCH while they move.. haha.. hmm quite crampy.. just nice lor.. the space between the cot and our bed is v small.. i dun even have a space to stand up .. so gotta just sit on the bed..

So what are we going to do with the master room? wee gonna place the computer there... TV, PS3 etc i'll be taking 2/5 of the wardrobe to put Charlotte's stuff and maybe the CL can sleep there for the 1 month.. hai.... i wanted to let Charlotte sleep with her.. cos since i'm paying so much for this CL.. how can i let her have a peaceful sleep in the night time right... ha ha ha.. maybe wee gotta sleep in the master room for the first month while the CL sleep with me in the room.. so she can take care of baby too.. well, we'll see how thing goes..

WHEN IS MY PUNGGOL SPRING COMING ?!?! So far my block is only at the 5-6 storey.. ok maybe soon soon early-mid next yr we can see the whole 17 floor? :D
