On Monday night.. i was rather worried... didnt feel any baby movements for the whole night, till tues morning...
On Tues night when i was in bed, i started talking to baby that its time that she gave me a kick so that i know she's growing well.. after a few minutes, I felt a little kick... i was elated... and told her she can kick and punch as hard as she wants... as long as its not too painful for me... heee..
And i knew that she could understand me... cos within a few minutes, she was performing acrobatic acts in my tummy !!! I could feel that she was facing inwards... as in i could feel movements deep in my tummy but couldnt see the movements... So i requested that she flip over and start kicking so that Daddy can see her movements...
Within 2-3 minutes, I could see my tummy moving.. immediately screamed for hubby to witness this and yes.. Its the first time that Daddy is able to feel and see her movements....
Baby, you've never failed mummy and i hope you will continue to grow well and listen to Mummy and Daddy :)

Kungfu Baby
I've been feeling baby movements for 5 weeks... the movements were most deep inside my tummy near my bladder / pelvic bones..
But today is the first time that i SAW my baby move... or rather, my belly move.
Was on the couch watching TV when i felt an exceptional strong kick/punch.
Quickly lifted up my blouse and i was very amazed to see my belly vibrating !!!
Screamed for hubby to come and witness this amazing sight... but then.. the movement stopped... *CHEY*...
I've noticed bigger and stronger movements recently and i'm glad that baby is growing well...
WELL DONE BABY !!!
Mummy and Daddy love u !!

@ 20 weeks
As you all can see from the change in the blog design……
YES !!! Confirmed we’ll have a princess next year :) we’re all so excited to be able to doll her up for CNY celebrations !!
Had our detailed scan yesterday, which covers the appearance, internal organs, blood vessels, amniotic fluids, skeleton… All seems fine..
I really believe that baby understands when I talk to her. When I first started the detailed scan, the radiologist said that baby is facing inwards, and if she doesn’t turn around, we might have to wait till she turns before we can complete the scan. When I recall the horrible wait we had during the OSCAR scan, I spoke to baby and told her to cooperate cos mummy doesn’t want to wait a few hours again…
Amazingly, after a few minutes, the radiologist said that she indeed flipped around!! And we’re thus able to complete the scan in 10 minutes or so… YIPPEE !!!… Baby, Mummy and Daddy are so proud of you.
Baby appears to know that she’s done very well this time… after the scan and throughout the day, she was kicking and moving excitedly inside my tummy…
Our baby is now 14cm..
Good growth for the baby and good growth for me as well.. in fact, I put on 5kg in 20 weeks… gosh !!!
And as requested by Ling.. here are a few horrible fat pictures of me…

Today went for review... hoping to find out whether our baby needs pink or blue booties !!!
But, Doc says cannot confirm yet but higher chance that it'll be a girl~!!!
We're happy as long as she/he develops well and is healthy :)
Bad news is, I put on 2kg in a month... damn !!!
I should start watching my diet.... and start exercising ! Brisk walking in the evening...

First Stretch @ Week 16
This morning..... the most amazing and wonderful thing happened....
My baby gave a big long stretch and i could feel a hard lump protruding !!
At around 230am, i was woken by what i though was a tummy cramp. When i felt my tummy, i was surprised to feel a hard lump at the right side of my tummy... it was a firm, palm-sized lump, and i could feel my tummy stretching.. I couldnt believe that it was my baby as i read that most 1st time mothers onli felt movement after 18-20 weeks, and i'm only at my 16th. After rubbing the "lump" for a few seconds while saying that i'm sorry baby must be very uncomfortable confined in such a small space, the lump slowly went down...
At around 530am, i was awaken by the same feeling and this time, the lump was to my left tummy. At this time, i was pretty sure that it must be my baby stretching. The feeling is so indescribable and the first thing i did was to call out for my baby... (the big one), my hubby.
I told a half-awake hubby what happened and he was laughing excitedly.. we were both very amazed that our baby is strong enough to give such a long and hard stretch !!! I'm really looking forward to more kicks and punches from baby :)
My pregnancy's been very "predictable"...
Whatever i read that may happen in a particular week, it will happen to me.
For instance:
1) Week 6 - Feel nauseas
2) Week 12 - Feeling of nausea will be almost gone
3) Week 13 - Energy levels will slowly increase
4) Week 14 - More transparent discharge and decreased frequency to urinate.
5) Week 16 - Skinny / non-first time mum will start to feel baby movements..
Which was why I was surprised to feel movement since i'm not skinny, and i'm a first time mum...

He's the man....
We always hear about how much people, or rather a mother go through to have a baby...
Morning sickness... abstaining from certain food... fatigue... carrying a 10kg+ load till full term... putting on weight, water retention, puffy face.. stretch marks... the list goes on and on...
However, for my case, i don't think i can go through my pregnancy without the man behind me... my hubby...
From the 6th week of my pregnancy, i've been hit by a bad case of morning sickness.. vomitted, felt listless, giddiness, headache, cramps, fatigue, disturbed sleep..... I was in a foul mood everyday, my best pal being the toilet bowl (for puking) and milo (no appetite for food)...
After my first trimester, things started improving.. i feel my energy level slowing coming back (though not fully) and i started to be more pleasant to be around (u wouldnt want to be near me during my 1st trime)..
During these few months, hubby's been extremely patient w me.. He's taken over ALL the housework... i can't do anything except maybe to wash a cup...
Every weekend, Hubby vacuum and mop the floor, wash, dry, and fold the clothes, clean the toilet, do all the dishes, make milo, and buy snacks and supper to fill my small appetite but frequent demands for food... He's such a good help and supported me everytime i feel horrible or is on the verge of pulling out my hair...
Hubby, I will let baby know how much effort u have put in to help me through this period... Thank you for being behind me always....

At 10 weeks - Baby kicking
When i first saw this video, it nearly brought tears to my eyes...
All the morning sickness is worth it :)
Spotting.. yet again @ week 13
Had some spotting last evening..
Just back from seeing Dr Tham -
Warning that he gave is - any brown discharge / blood is NOT normal.
For 2nd trime, the worst case is the opening of the cervix which may cause miscarriage.
However, if found out early, it can be treated (hospitalisation required)
Therefore, he recommend that I stay in SG - Abstain from travelling by bus, coach, air... (I have a biz trip coming up next week).
And visit him for a scan everytime i bleed/ spot.
The bad news is, i have to continue eating the horrible hormorne pill that gives me headache and makes me nauseas.... geez....
Good news is, my OSCAR test result is out... everything is clear... risk of down syndrome is low.
So.. i've got to pray to god tonite that everything is good so far and hope things continue to improve as the pregancy progresses...
