4 months and 3 weeks young!

Today's entry is about your developmental milestone... Yes, mommy has been lazy... didnt write about u for 2 months already... Mommy has been so busy with u my dear... n when u sleep, all i want to do is do nothing!

So how are u so far? You have been a good girl so far... but when u hit 4 months old, u start to refuse to sleep... Slightest sound awake u.... Move u alittle, u woke with big big shiny eyes... Your growth is ok... Not to heavy n not too under weight... U were 6.4kg when u were 4 months n 1 week old.. So light! Mommy wants u to be chubby like the michelin baby! The gov nurse say if u dont sleep, u cant gain weight... So that explains why u have not grown fatter cause u have not been sleeping!

What can u do to this date? Let me see, just a few days ago, u are able to sit without support for a few secs until u decided to topple down... So cute! U know how to seek for attention by faking a cry! U r such a drama queen my baby! U talk alot... Baby talk of course...U can turn side ways already... But not often... U can only manage a full turn if mommy put u on your tummy then u can turn to your back... But if u r on your back, u cant turn to your tummy yet.. U can only turn to side ways... U already starting to recognize people.. The people u could recognize so far is your ah kong n ah ma (Grandparents of daddy's side), Aunty Jennifer and of course me n your daddy! How do i know u can recognize them? If u recognize somebody, u will smile to them; if its strangers, u dont to them at all... U turn to your proud n cocky look.. :P And also, if u can recognize somebody, u ask for that person to carry u... Yes, u already know how to ask people to carry u by giving some hand signal like u wanna dive into that person's arm.. U start to observe things n want to grab things already as well.. But your hand n eye coordination is not that accurate yet; therefore, whenever u want to grab something, u miss it by an inch... SO cute!

Of course you have the moments when u r very naughty which made me want to throw u into the dustbin.. :P of course i would never do that but just saying... Hehehe... The frustration moment... Like when u refuse to sleep at night when its already 4am! Now u dont like your hair to be washed.. U will move around n wiggle alot when i wash your hair... You still dont like to be put down to wear your diapers and clothes on your diaper changing station... But u still like water n is very fine when i dip u into your bath tub to wash u up.. U like swimming as well even though u look very confused while swimming... U never once smile when u r in your mini pool.. Yes, mommy bough u a mini pool which can like put 2 inches high of water only.. Actually u r not swimming.. But mommy put you in your swim suit and then u dip into the mini pool like this...

U see your confused face?

On a different topic, when u were exactly 4months old, mommy n ah ma did a tradition for u... They call it 'Keep Saliva' tradition... Its Hockkien person tradition only where we made u wear like a necklace of biscuit then u will drip or lick those biscuits then people who loves like your parents, grandparents and great parents take a piece of biscuit n swipe your saliva off from your mouth with the biscuit n we eat them... This so that u wont salivate alot throughout your infant hood..

 Your first taste of saltiness...Your face looks so cute!

 U were so busy looking n licking the biscuits that u didnt care wats going on your surrounding...

 Going back for more!

See, so busy with your biscuits!

N yes, u have been eating your hands / fist alot now... U have been doing that ever since u r almost 3 months old.. I keep trying to stop u from eating your hand but u keep want to put your whole fist in... Sometimes one fist is not enough, u try to put 2 fist altogether! Then end up u gag cause u put your hands far into the mouth..

Hence, the picture... I try to stop u, but u insist...

You have been holding both your legs up as well.. U always do that when i leave u to sleep on your back..

I guess thats all i would like to say about u... Just remember my dear girl, your parents, grandparents and great grandparents loves u so very much! Dont believe me, there's alot of pictures to prove to u! Especially mommy.. Mommy loves u to the point that i cant live without u! I guessed i have said that too many times... So yea my dear, I LOVE U! n be good ok!

Happy 2 Months Old My Dearest Girl!

Just wanted to wish u happy 2 months old my dear girl! I have come to love u more n more each day n will definitely love u even more as each day passes! I never knew i have this much love in me n that i could love someone this much! N to be honest, i love u even more than daddy! Seriously! I look at u each day n i feel so blessed to have u in my life... Even though u r a fussy baby, i love regardless... N i know when u turn into teenager, u will give me alot of headaches but i will still love u! I guess this is what we call mother's love... I never knew n understand a mother's love until i experience it myself.. Most people call this a blessing... But i call this a blessing and also a karma in disguise... :P

Here is a picture of u at 2 months old... Beautiful dress bought by your kor-kor (daddy's sister)... And we went out for lunch with Mommy's family on your 2 months old celebration... :D

 This is u and mommy at the lunch place! Still oblivious to your surrounding of course... :)

 This is u at 2 Months and 1 week old... Went out for Lunch with Daddy's parents... U go out kai kai every Sunday actually.. :)  N this beautiful dress also bought by your kor-kor (Daddy's sister)...

 And you are starting to play with your saliva, u salivate alot... You are also eating your hands and licking everything that brushes by your mouth! E.g, my clothes, your hanky, n etc... Mouth getting itchy already...

This is you having tummy time on mommy's tummy... A rather strong neck for a 2 months n 1 week old baby!

You are also starting to recognize people's face... N i think u can recognize mommy.. As whenever u see mommy, u will give me a big big smile...Which u melt mommy's heart every time u do that! Its like u saw a face, u see that face.. then u suddenly recognize its mummy then u just smile to mommy even though mommy didnt say anything... U make me feel special like this... Its like all my efforts on you its like so worth it for u to smile to mommy like that... :D

Thats all the update about u for now... Love u so much! N yes, u have no idea how much love mommy has for u until you have become a mother yourself...

Hey My Dear Girl.. You are 6 weeks old!

Hie Baby Girl...

You are 6 weeks old coming to 7 weeks old actually! Mommy has been soooooooo busy with you that i really do not have time to blog about at all! I noticed i missed your One Month Old blog entry as well... Well i guess this entry is going to be long!

Yes, instead of calling you baby girl all the time, u do have a name... I suppose by the time you read this, u r old enough to obviously know your name.. We decided to name you Jessica Saw Rei Ern... Jessica is picked by both mommy n daddy.. And your chinese name pick by your grandma! (Daddy's mum)...

You have been a handful baby... Ever since you were born, mommy has non stop worries about you!

First - You had a little jaundice while u were in hospital, the day u were going to check out.. But it was not that serious so u dont have to be in the incubator.. I know why u were having jaundice; it is because mommy didnt have much milk coming out yet so u had nothing to flush out from your system... You need to drink alot of breastmilk so u can make your digestive system start working n flush out all the dirty things via pooping n peeing... So when mommy didnt have enough milk, it caused u jaundice...

Second - When you are about 10 days old, u developed conjunctivitis (Pink Eye / Red Eye)... How u got that? Mommy stays in a confinement centre where all baby was infected before.. Therefore, u got infected as well.. But mommy got lucky that i didnt get it... Everybody in the confinement centre got it.. All babies and babies' mom... So i was already preparing n expecting myself to get infected as well.. But somehow, i didnt... It took you 2 weeks to cure! The first week u got it, u had yellowish thick discharge from your eyes (it couldnt be your tears as newborns dont develop tears yet) then only coming in to the 2nd week that your eye got red... In that process, mommy was in pain for u as well.. You could barely open your eyes.. Even when u do, your eyes looks very swollen... So sad to see you like this... U went to see doctor twice for your red eye... First time was as soon as i discovered u got yellow discharge and the second time, mommy brought u to eye specialist in GMC when your eye turned red (U had red streaks in your eye balls) as i was afraid something might go wrong with your eye like maybe turn blind or wat... So must really check you properly...

 See, swollen eyes... Taken on the first week u got it...

This one was taken on second week... You had the "Dont Mess with Me" look all the time when u had swollen eyes... Or else your normal look would be this cute on when u were 1 week old..

 Taken on 5th May 2012 - See, you were very cute before the red eye infection...

Taken on 8th May 2012 - You were turning your head towards my voice while i was talking to you! U were a curious newborn baby!

Taken on 4th May 2012 when u first learn how to take the pacifier... u got impatient n angry bcos u thought it was nipple n when u suckle it n there were no milk coming out, u got angry n refuse the pacifier... :D

Taken on 13th May 2012 when mommy put u on your tummy for tummy time to let u exercise your neck so it could be stronger... :) U looked like u were trying to crawl.. :P

You came home officially to stay on the 27th May 2012... Mommy left the confinement place early as they were already closing down... Since then until today, mommy has been taking care of non stop n i am very busy taking care of u... U wake up to feed every 2 hours most of the time.. But if im lucky, u sleep for 3 hours... And if im very lucky, u sleep for 4 hours.. but that only happened roughly 5 times ever since u came home to sleep up till today... So yeah, mommy is lacking sleep.. n that is why i had no time to blog.. Even if i have the extra free time, i rather sleep cause mommy is sooooo tired...

Then after that mommy had to worry n wonder if u have colic n etc... cause u kept kicking up a fuss n your tummy looks real bloated n hard... Then when u werent pooping for 4 days, i got worried... Having a baby is like being worried constantly...

Hello Baby Girl!

Guess what my dear girl? U came out yesterday on Labour Day! Mommy went on Labor on Labour Day! You are a Labour Day baby! How did it happen? It's omg long story actually... It started out like this...

 Ever since u were 38 weeks old in mommy's tummy, doctor has been doing membrane sweeping on mommy's cervix.. I think I have mentioned this on my previous post. Then last week, I went to see doctor again n doctor says mommy not even dilate yet.. But my cervix has started to thin out.. So on 30th April, mommy went to see doctor again for the weekly check up so see whether you are ready to be out yet. And doctor also did membrane sweep n he tried to n manage to open my cervix for one miserable centimeter. Doctor says come in on 2nd May (since 1st May is a public holiday) to have you born by inducing with prostaglandins pill inserted into my cervix. After he did that, mommy has been having irregular contractions throughout the day.. At first, I didn't know that is The contraction. I still went to Gurney Plaza for a walk, had desserts n even ice cream! At night, I went for Japanese dinner with my parents as like the last few good meal before I go into labor. Then at night after dinner, the contractions got stronger.. It was right after I showered at home that I realized this is The contraction! It comes n go quite frequent. At about 1 plus am, I'm feeling it. But I didn't want to tell daddy about it cause I thought it might go away n I thought maybe it's bcos that morning doctor did a sweep for me that's y I'm feeling like this. Then I couldn't sleep so I start to time the contraction and I was having contraction for every 7 mins interval n each time the pain lasted for a minute. I had that the whole night! Tried to sleep but I couldn't so I started to do things to get ready for labor. Like boil water, pack up more n luckily I was already packing when I came back from dinner. Finally couldn't stand it so I sms the doctor n told him my symptoms. He then gave me a missed call at about 8.10am so I called doctor back. Then doctor asked me to come in at 9am to his clinic. Then I woke daddy up n told him about my pain n it's time! When we reach doctor's place, he did a sweep for me again.. Omg, I am starting to hate the membrane sweep.. It's very painful n uncomfortable. Then he said my cervix is still at 1cm n after he did the sweep, my cervix managed a total 2cm. He said my type of labor is called long latent phase labor. Sounds difficult.. He then gave me a choice to either straight induce on 1st May or he asked me to stand the pain until the next day on 2nd May only give birth..

Then I decided to go ahead n give birth on 1st May itself.. I then reached hospital at about almost 10am after the doctor has finish checking on me. Then I was in frequent pain like every 5 mins to 2 mins window.. Finally couldn't stand it n texted the doctor to ask if it's normal that the pain is so frequent.. Then doctor finally asked a nurse to come being me down to the labor room at about close to 1pm. I was asked to change n I wait for doctor while he was delivering another baby.. Then he came to attend to me close to 2pm n did the sweep again! N this time he tried so hard n managed a 3cm! Miserable man.. n this time the sweep he did was so much more painful! Then he told me while I was heavily sedated with gas that I could finally deliver my baby at about 5 plus pm.. When I heard that, I felt like dying! Not now? Gotta wait in pain somemore? I was so drowsy n in so much pain that I didn't know wat I was doing or saying the whole time from 2pm up till the time u were born! After 3pm, I was in so much pain that I kept crying n moaning n kept crying n I didn't know wat I was talking about. I only knew nurses came to attend to me many times asking me to keep quiet n don't yell n moan to save my energy for pushing later on. I couldn't help myself at all.. Each time when the pain comes, I will yell n moan.. N I think that is like almost every minute! Daddy was waiting for mommy outside the labor room the whole time. My screams got louder at 4pm.. N I felt like I was ready to push n even felt like pass motion after 4pm.. But nurse didn't allow me to do so as doctor haven't arrive.. At that point, I felt like dying.. I just wanted you out there n then! And then all the research n reading that I have been doing on how to breath n relax, all got thrown out the window.. I couldn't even care if my bottom split or wat.. I just wanted you out in any possible way! But doctor had to do episiotomy on me because I wasn't cooperative n listening to orders.. He had to or else I will have a bigger tear at my bottom. So no choice lo.. I didn't care at that point anyways.. Hehehe.. When doctor came, I think he came like less than half an hour only n u came out already after like doctor ask me to push.. I think I did only 2 pushes and u r out! When u came out, it's like all of a sudden.. Then u were 'plop' on my tummy.. I felt your body heat rested on my tummy... That was when i felt a huge relieve... You came out at five thirty something n weighted 3.4kg.. :) u looked so adorable n seriously cuter than I had expected you to be.. Hehehe.. Bcos mommy n daddy was an ugly baby when we were young.. So I didn't expect u to look this cute n adorable lo.. I guess that's all of the story of how you were born..

As of today, 2nd May, mommy's breast milk haven't arrive.. So u r still suckling to stimulate it out.. N I must say, u r very smart n clever to latch on for a new born.. U managed it immediately.. But mummy is still a little lost of how to do it correctly.. Will see how when the milk comes in.. Each time when u r not with me, mommy misses u.. I just always look forward to feeding u n seeing u.. Love u so much my baby! I have been wondering, how could some mum dont love their baby after all the pregnancy pain n labor pains she has already gone through for a baby? I have already loved u the moment I knew I was going to have u n when I see u, I love u even more n cannot help but keep on thinking u r like the best babies among all the babies there.. :) I love you.. Will update here again next time when I have time.. Now, gonna try to be a good mum to u..

Below are newborn pictures of you... Still looking bloated and crumple.. :)

This picture was taken right after u were born... Nurse took you out a while to do some test on you to see that u r healthy n ok then she bring u back to mommy to start breast feed you right away.. And you were a smart little baby, u knew how to latch on the breast immediately!

This is taken while you were in the nursery room and when visitor get to see you on viewing times...

Nursing time...You were a great and nice baby to mommy while in hospital.. U did not cry constantly or kick up any fuss... Really like mommy's bestest baby! :P

38 weeks n counting!

Hey ya baby girl! Mommy thought of writing a little bit about u since mommy can't sleep yet..

Mommy went to see doctor yesterday and u were 3kgs at 38 weeks already! Mommy is at the stage where I have to go see doctor weekly to see how you are progressing along n to see if u r coming out anytime this week or next week kinda thing.. But doctor told mommy that u won't be out earlier than the edd as this is because my cervix is still tightly shut. The doctor did a membrane sweep. Membrane sweeping means obstetrician placing a finger just inside the cervix and making a circular, sweeping movement to separate the membranes from the cervix. It was quite a painful experience for me that I almost teared. Then I was thinking to myself, just this small matter I'm already feeling the pain to the extend that I almost have tears coming out. What if real labor comes? I think I'm going to cry, yell n faint or something along the lines like that.. This made me feel worse n scared of labor day!

So since doctor have checked that my cervix is still tightly shut, he said u won't be early.. You will either be on time or late... Next week doctor will do another membrane sweep n he is hoping to open my cervix to at least 4cm before my real labor comes so that I wont have a long, tiring n traumatizing labor experience.. I think I'm gonna hate doctor's visit from now on cause the membrane sweeping is really painful! It made me feel sore n uncomfortable the whole night.

Mommy is fine with you coming out late or early.. You take your time.. Just as long as you are ready, healthy n actively kicking inside, u can come out whenever you are ready k.. Even though mommy has so much pain n aches with you growing rapidly inside, i think i could still stand n bear it for another 3 weeks max? But try not to gain more weight alright? You have been constant in gaining weight.. U gain exactly 200 grams each week! Everytime I go see the doctor, u again 200 grams consistently each week! I cannot imagine how big you'll be when u finally comes out! If u come out in 2 weeks time, u will probably weigh like 3.4kgs!

Now mommy walks like a grandma. I cannot stand too long or else my pelvis would feel sore n painful from your weight on my pelvis.. If I sit too long n when I try to get up, my back bone n tail bone will have the crack feeling n pain n aches.. Basically I have pain aches everywhere.. Each step i walk, i will feel pain n sore either from my back or pelvis.. Its your weight that im carrying thats y i feel all these pains n sore.. Like just the other day when mommy was rushing to the toilet after a movie at the cinema, I was walking really fast cause I really need to pee n cannot hold it in anymore, that short distance of fast pace walking cause mommy's calves to sore the next day.. It feels like i went jogging the day before n the after effect of jogging is sore calves.. I am not complaining or blaming u.. Remember that.. I love you enough to feel its all worth it to have all these pains for u.. :) but I'm writing this down to remember my experience of being heavily pregnant at this stage.. :) Make me think twice of having a second baby.. I might want a second baby but not for another 3 years perhaps? 3 years gap among siblings is a good gap I suppose..

Anyways, remember that mommy loves you very much! Come out whenever u are ready n be nice to me during labor.. Will write to you again soon if there's new update about you..

33 Weeks this week!

Hey Baby!

You are 33 weeks old this week! I went to see doctor last tuesday and u gained 400grams from 2 weeks ago when i last see the doctor!!! Omg! U r growing! Now u r 2kg! Mommy intend n hope that by the time u r born, u will be just right before 3kgs... But now, it seems impossible... Unless u gain like 100 grams a week.. Its not possible as i have 1 n half months to go... Which is like almost 7 weeks to go... How possible? I hope u wont be so big as mommy is a lazy mommy as i dont exercise alot n move around alot... Cause u r getting too heavy for mommy.. walk alittle bit, mommy got so tired n have back aches n pelvis pain... So i cant walk much now.. and i constantly sleepy n tired... How to exercise la.. Doctor also told me that u already have your turned head down n ready to face the world! Yay! But its normal for a first baby to have their heads down this early... I feel that u probably had your head turn down a week ago.. Cause i felt the difference... Example: I used to be able to walk at least 2 to 3 hours before ur head turn down only i will feel the sore n pain in my pelvis... But for the past a week n half, i feel as though i walk a little bit only my pelvis already felt the pain... So im assuming your head turned down around that time lo...

Below are a cute n quite clear pic of you... Everyone including doctor n nurse and your grandma n grandpa says u look like me! I seriously cant tell who u look like! But they all seem to be so sure u look like me! But grandpa says u have daddy's lips! I think u have combination of both mommy's n daddy's lips... What a big lip! Big lips is good my dear... So that u will be as pretty as Angelina Jolie.. A very hot n sexy actress in mommy's time... Not sure if u will still know her when u grow up though... I told one of mommy's friend which u will come to know later as Aunty Jennifer, that i might name u Jolie if u really have big sexy lips.. Hehehehe.... But so far, mommy is still stuck at naming u Jessica... cause mommy cant think of any other better names for u... Do u like the name Jessica? Jessica Saw... :D I think is alright and probably confirm naming u this Jessica unless i can think of a better name for u... So far, i have 2 friends that name Jessica.. Not so close now but we used to model together... n the both Jessica is pretty, outspoken n really friendly... And then the famous people like Jessica Alba, Jessica Biel... They are all so beautiful n sexy... N mommy hope n wants you to be a pretty as them!

You see, not even born n u already have quite a style while sleeping.. If you all cant really see, its baby's cheek n chin resting on baby's hand... The most obvious part of the face is the big lips... :D Daddy says u look just like me... The style also like me.. =_=" He meant when mommy's being lazy n i look just like that...

Mommy is going to see doctor again in 2 weeks time... n hopefully this time u will grow 300 grams n below ya.. Mommy is super scared of hard labor... Be nice to mommy ok? I will try to eat less from now on! Thats all for today... Love u lots! n cant wait for u to be out n see the world! Muacks! Xoxoxo....

Hey baby girl! You are coming to 32 weeks this week!

Hey baby!

You are going to be 32 weeks this week! Mummy almost finish shopping for your stuffs... I think mummy spent like almost RM5k in preparation for your arrival my dear... Im not complaining alot or little.. Its just a note for me to remember.. :D This 5k of course does not include doctor's visits... Its just shopping for your stuffs! Mummy just bought an adorable playpen for u today.. Its Red n Dark Grey in color.. Its RM260! Cheap right! But nothing fancy... Just a local brand called MyDear... :D I saw it last week at Gurney Plaza, a shop called Puku... But decided to wait later on to buy it.. But today, mummy happen to go to that shop again n its the last one! And another Aunty was looking at the same playpen... So i knew i had to get this playpen now or never! So i got it! Then a while later the Aunty was like confirming she wants it but the salesgirl told her that i already confirm wanting it... hehehe... talking about close call!

I need to go buy a few other things before im finally done shopping for u.. I need to buy your diapers and a 2-in-1 head support for u and thats it... Done shopping for u... and after that, i plan to wash all the new clothes that i bought for u, set up your baby corner in our room then u can arrive in peace! But i will do that in April since doctor is expecting you to arrive around 2nd May 2012.. :D Cant wait for u to arrive... n trust me, daddy seriously cant wait too!

Daddy was talking to u the other day while you were moving around mummy's tummy.. Its was after midnight n its suppose to be your sleeping time... But u always seem to be extra active in the middle of the night... I guess its because mummy dont move much at night, therefore u r more active... Cause babycenter.com says that if i dont move or lay down quietly, u will tend to move or be awake bcos its like no vibration or swinging you to sleep... So if i move alot or talk alot, its like a comfort to you, therefore, u will sleep more... Anyways, while daddy was talking to u very close to my tummy, asking u to go to sleep, u gave daddy an extra kick to acknowledge that u heard him... Its was such a beautiful sight to see daddy so amazed n the much love he had for u...

I went to see the doctor last week n doctor says everything is fine except that he wants me to eat less so that u will be a small baby by the time you are due.. Easier for mummy to deliver... He told me that he prefer u to be a week smaller... Now your size is on par to your due date actually... He just wants you to smaller than u r now... Oh well... I shall stop supper n tea time!

Even though mummy cant wait for u to arrive, mummy feels super scared at the same time... Not sure if i have mentioned this in the previous blog entry (cause pregnant woman has a brain memory of a gold fish), but the thought of me going to have natural birth n deliver in so much pain scares the hell out of me really... I heard from my friends who has experienced it says that its a traumatizing experience! Omg... How... So scary... So many things to think about.. Like whether i can successfully breastfeed you like wat im planning to now... As i plan to breastfeed u until you are at least 6 months old... But i heard alot of people already given up by the 3rd month cause breastfeeding is very hard... not as easy as it sounds... I hope u will be good mummy... especially when deliver time, make it quick.. come out as quickly as possible when mummy push and be cooperative in breastfeeding k... :P I know its too much to ask.. But im just hoping for the best...

I guess thats all for now... next week mummy is going to see doctor again... As your due date is nearer, i will see doctor more often now... Used to be every month, now i have to see doctor every 2 weeks... And i guess when April comes, i will see doctor every week... And thats when its scary.. means u r coming out anytime!

Love you baby and be nice!

My baby girl at 27 weeks!

Hey baby girl! Yay! Just found out 2 hours ago that you are a girl! Today you are 27 weeks old!

Doctor was so confident u r a girl that he said if on labor day, if u turn out to be a boy, he will put mummy in VIP room with VIP treatment all free of charge! Hehe.. Or he said if I spent RM500 on baby boy's stuffs, he will give me 1k as compensation.. Since doctor say until so sure, u definitely my baby girl!

Can't wait to go shopping for cute baby girl dresses for u! Will look for your full moon cutest baby girl dress as well! N I think grandma is already busy thinking of a nice Chinese girl's name for u!

Everybody can't wait to see u n has already love u even way before u r born! See you so lucky.. So many loves and many people already anxiously waiting for your arrival..! 3 more month to go! Lesser than 3 months I hope! :) Soooooo can't wait!

Mummy has been having alot aches everywhere.. Like pelvic bone ache, tail bone pain each time I try to get up from seating.. My pubic bone pain whenever I try to toss n turn.. But all is bearable pain.. Just that it feels so uncomfortable.. Mummy aint complaining ok.. Mummy just wanted to note this down so that in the future I can refer back the difference... I feel all these pain is worth it for u baby.. But also I'm partly to be blame cause mummy was fat n lazy n didn't exercise before the pregnancy n during pregnancy.. That is why mummy is having all these pains.. I think I'm going to suffer alot when I'm going on labor.. Cause I don't exercise enough.. I guess that's the consequences that I will face for being so lazy.. Cant help it baby, I'm tired all the time.. N I'm always short of breath.. N I sometimes have difficulties in breathing.. So exercising is definitely the last thing on my mind..

Now for some pictures of you at 27 weeks old!

See... Doctor pointing at your bottom... Thats your private part.. :) A proof that u r a girl! So clear this time! Yay!

A close up shot of your face.. Quite scary looking actually...

4D view of you.. Can't really see who u really look like.. But I think u got daddy's nose..

You are actively kicking n moving around mummy's tummy.. Which doctor says its a good sign.. Doctor says u should move around n mummy should be able to feel you move at least more than 10 times a day... If less than that, I must call the doctor immediately.. So move it move it baby!

Now mummy gotta think of a nice English name for u that starts with J.. Start with J is a must as mummy n daddy's name also start with J... I can't seem to make up my mind what name to give you.. Girls name J not much choice.. Maybe I'll name you Jaelyn, maybe Jessica, maybe Jessie? Still just don't sound nice enough.. Will think of more names soon!

Till then, mummy n daddy loves u! Oh, forgot to tell u that, daddy sounded super happy when he found out that u r a girl.. Daddy was right, he has always felt that u r a girl.. N daddy wanted a girl too.. So he was soooo happy that u r a girl.. Now daddy got 2 girls to love.. :D

Ok, dont wan to write too long already.. Will write to you again soon! Love you my girl!

Hey baby!

Hey ya baby, since I still call u baby means mummy still don't know whether u r a boy or a girl!

You are 23 weeks old this week! N weight roughly 500 grams this week! (as in first week of jan week)

Last Tuesday (3rd Jan), mummy n daddy went for our monthly check up n was so excited n hoping to be able to find out if u r a boy or a girl.. Mummy even purposely go for night session rather than the usual morning session so that I was hoping u would be more active at night n be able to spread your legs wide open to show me your sex but then... Your legs were very tightly closed this time around! So mummy still don't know your sex n felt a little disappointed.. Sigh.. But I tell myself, it's ok, at least baby is healthy.. :) we will try again in 4 weeks time on our next check up n hopefully we will know ok!

You have been kicking n somersaulting in mummy's tummy everyday now.. N u r especially active at night! Just like me! Kinda worries me if u will be a night owl like me when u r born next time.. But all your kicking n movement doesn't bother me as it feels like a miracle.. It's a sign that u r healthy living inside me.. It's my very own flesh n blood with someone I love very dearly, your daddy.. I wouldn't trade anything else to be not able to feel u inside me.. :) No doubt u make mummy have stretch marks, soreness, back pain, make mummy uglier n fatter n etc problems, but I feel it's all worth it.. Worth it for u.. Wouldn't trade all these away! This is how much I already love you.. :)

Mommy n daddy are seriously counting down the days when we can finally meet u.. We really cannot wait to see u! The month May, please arrive faster.. :)

Picture of you on 23 weeks! See, your legs were crossed so tightly! Be good on our next doctor trip ok? Love you baby!
