The Last Lap

Feeling all fantastic as I'm now on the home straight - 3rd tri.

Went for the monthly checkup on Thu and is delighted to know that BB Goh is growing well.

Statistic update as at 28wks and 4 days:
BB Goh's weight: 1.4Kg
>> Dr Chan said that he's a big baby like his daddy and mummy, with long limbs as well.

My weight gain since the last checkup was only 1 kg (phew!), and am I glad that from that 1kg, 600gm went to BB Goh! I reckon it could be the durians I ate the week before that contributed to his weight gain? Haha..whatever it is, mum has already banned me from eating durians, said too heaty and not good for the baby. *Fret*

The only worrying thing is that my blood pressure went up a little this time and Dr Chan gave specific instructions that I should cut down my salt intake to play safe. So from now till delivery, I have to abstain from HOTDOGS (sob!), HAM (sob sob!), BACON (sob sob sob!), LUNCHEON MEAT (sob sob sob sob!) and processed food......*wail* Mum is more gancheong than me and since last dinner, she has started to steam and boil all the dishes and even stopped me from indulging in my favourite chicken wings too. Oh gosh...is this life?

Anyway, I'm juz praying hard that this pregnancy will be smooth sailing and I can hold BB Goh till full term.

80 days to go!
