Baby Goh at 34 Weeks 3 Days

Just got back from the routine checkup, glad that all is well and I've requested for a mc today to rest at home...hehe. I know, I'm a slacker, but my energy level is really going down and walking is getting more and more like a chore nowadays as the v-area gets pretty sore with Baby Goh's head pressing against it.

Updates from the checkup:
1. Baby Goh now weighs 2.3kg. He gained 300gms since 2 weeks ago. Dr Chan observed that the growth is slowing down probably due to my hypertension, but according to him, it's good cos' bb's head has stayed put at 31.5cm, not any bigger, else I will face difficulty pushing his big head out during birth. And besides, he doesn't encourage big babies, so bb is of average size and just nice..not dua pwee (big and fat).

2. For me, I've gained another 100gms, which brings my total weight gain till date to 8.7kg. Great! That's what I wanted, not to overshot the 10kg mark..hehe. BP today went up a little, but I reckon that's becos' I was nervous on the development of Baby Goh, so heart raced a little bit faster in the morning. Nevertheless, Dr Chan said since my urine test is ok, legs are not swollen, he's not worried abt me getting pre-eclampsia. Phew..I felt so relieved!

3. Baby Goh is not engaged yet, but Dr Chan said he is "almost there"! BB is about three-fifths above my pubic bone, so hopefully by the next visit, he is "there" liao :)

4. From now onwards, will have to lookout for signs of labour. Frequent contractions of 5 mins interval, or bloody show, or water bag burst are signs to lookout for. They might occur in various order, so if any presence off these, I will have to head to the hospital.

Did my pre-admission today at Glen-E after the checkup! I'm getting a single bedder, after much calculations, I think the total bill will come up to about 3K! And that's after deducting Medisave....Geesh!



Aside from that...I bought some bo liao stuff during the past few shopping sprees...haha..

Brag Tag - to hold BB Goh's photo and hang onto my diaper bag to show off *grin*



Baby shower banner - was at Concourse with a colleague yday during lunchie, could't resist buying it cos' it's tooooo CUTE!



Am now working out the guest list and planning how we are going to throw the baby shower. Dun really wish to hold it at home cos' it will be damn messy and I don't think I have the time nor energy to clean up the place after the party. Rather have it at someone's condo (function room). A pity that Sis's place doesn't have a proper function room (only club house but doesn't allow food), else things will be easier. Taking hope that Renne can help us with this though *cross fingers and toes*

On an even happier note, my coach diaper bag has finally arrived Singpost!! Hopefully they will deliver to me by tomorrow!!! Can't wait!!
