5th visit to the gynae
31 Aug 2013
Today's appointment I did the test for down syndrome, which includes a blood test and a scan. This cost me $350 before Gst. This test that I choose to take is 90% accurately. Nowadays we don't have to go through the pain and worries of the amionic fluid test.
During the scan, my cute baby kept moving about and the gynae was not able to take the measurements properly, he tried so hard to scan him but he won't stop moving, haha. Both the gynae and his nurse was laughing, my baby was so cute and active :) Gynae ask me to talk to him to stop moving for a while so I did, but baby still won't stop....Gynae kept reapplying the gel on my abdominal and try and try to scan, the nurse printed out a few pieces of the scan. Then finally after about 15 to 20 mins, gynae say 'ok'! Finally it's done...haha... Baby is sooooo cute.
After the scan, gynae draw some of my blood for the test of various diseases. He said that the result will be out next week and he will give call me.
This is the scan of him today. Somehow I feel that I can see his face and looks like a boy!

Today is the 4th day of Lunar New Year, the year of Horse. This Lunar New Year is so different from the pass, usually during LNY, I will be wearing new clothes and dress up nicely to go to house visiting, but this year since I am now about 34 weeks pregnant with my big tummy, I am not able to dress up nicely and also no mood to do so actually because I feel tired everyday. I only bought 1 new maternity dress from ASOS for LNY and a top from Gmarket. The dress is pretty, with embellishments at the bust area, looks expensive but it's way much cheaper than those maternity dresses that local retail shop sells.
By now, I have already put on about 15kg! It's scary isn't it? I know some mummies only put on like less than 10kg, so envy them :( I actually put on much weight during the 1st trimester where I drink at least 2 glasses of maternal milk powder, I guess this contribute largely to my rapid weight gain. But the strange thing is that during every gynae visit, he always said that my weight gain is 'normal'. Which I feel that it's not :( Somemore now it's chinese new year period where feasting is unavoidable. There's so much new year goodies waiting for me... eg. bak kwa, which I can't stop munching once I start eating, haha... I am trying very hard to control myself cause I don't want my baby boy to be too big when giving birth. He's already about 2.1kg at last appointment.
I am feeling kind of nervous as EDD is approaching, if my gynae is accurate, baby could pop by end of Feb'14...I am like left with 1 month to go... so scared...don't know what exactly to expect when giving birth. I will be taking my maternity leave from 26/02/14 so that I can't have some rest before baby pop.
About 2 weeks' ago, I got a shocked when I saw myself in the mirror after bathe. Was going to apply the stretch mark oil then suddenly saw that my butt has alot of stretch marks, oh no! There's the only area that I totally missed applying the stretch mark oil :( I am so upset... Since then I have been religiously applying on my butt and all other areas..
As I'm typing now, my baby is kicking inside me, so cute lah. I will definitely miss his kicks and hiccups when he's out. He's very active during late mornings, afternoons and night time. I can say that he is a good boy cause he don't disturb me when I am sleeping at night, when I sleep, he also stop kicking/he also sleeps. :)
Oh yah, and my maternity shoot is on this Saturday, excited!
