When Yan An back home, Zq...

was all so excited! He kept saying didi and asking everyone at home to "sshh" while didi sleeping but in fact he is the one who talks the loudest and making most noice! haaaa

When he saw we changed diaper for didi, he will make the "shame shame" hand gesture.. so cute to see him doing this.. And he will kiss didi whenever didi is awake, he loves to kiss him and pat him.. But we gonna watch his strength when doing these! :p

Though we can sense he loves didi very much, but he showed his 1st sign of jealousy today. When Dear was bathing Yan An, he screamed, cried and protested. We were shocked to see his reaction, so we tried to pacify him, telling him didi smelly so need to bong bong just like Zq.. And we involved him in the bathing of didi also as a spectator and also asking him to help out to fetch this and that. He was glad to help out and being extremely KPO but at least this pacify him.. :)

Hope the 2 brothers will grow up taking care of each other and be each other best buddy! Oh, did i mention Yan An looks exactly like Zq when he was newborn!!! :)

Kilos & inch - Update

Mummy whale's size at week 37 of pregnancy:

weight gained: 19kg
tummy size: 47 inches

GOSH! i had gained 2kg in a week!!! And im hitting 20kg increment soon.. Wonder will i break the 21kg record when i conceived with Zq...

Last gynae checkup before "popping"

Had my last checkup at Dr Ang's clinic. Baby estimated weight at 3.1kg (seems to shrink from 3.2kg last week?) Anyway it's just an estimation so im not that worried, just hope that Yan An will be at least 3kg when borned coz Zq was borned at 3.3kg, rather cuddable size :)

Okay, baby not engaged yet and head circumference seems to grow bigger also.. So my chances of natural delivery is even slimmer.. Upon considering all the factors and risks, we had decided an elective c-section with epidural to deliver Yan An on 23 May 2009. We did not consult any Shifu on this, just studied the Lunar Calendar and some webbies to make sure that the day and hour of operation is good and not "clashing" with any family members..

Pray that everything goes well and i will be able to recover fast! So excited and look forward to meet my little boy soon! :)

Gynae checkup @ week 37

Visited both Dr Paul Tseng and Dr Ang today. Reason for being visited both doctors is because i wish to have more advices on my wish and feasibility to have VBAC for this delivery. Dear was not around to accompany me to the checkups, but im lucky to have my parents, my younger sis and Zq by my side... :)

These are what the doctors commented upon the scannings (same views for both):

- Both estimated baby's size at 3.2kg.
- Both said baby is not engaged yet.
- Both commented baby will not pop that soon.

Some differ views:

- Dr Tseng estimated baby's head circumference at 34.5cm. Dr Ang estimated at 36cm.
- Dr Tseng mentioned "still can try for natural" though baby's head circumference is his biggest concern. Dr Ang told me straightaway "do not waste the effort and take unecessarily risk", he suggested a c-section scheduled this or next week.
- Dr Ang did VE and said my cervix still tight, no sign of dilation.

So im rather puzzled over the best decision to make. I need to discuss with hubby and decide what's the best or less risk for baby and me. Another factor that bothering me is the umbilical cord around baby's neck, though it maybe common but i still feel uneasy, baby may get destress in the process of trial of natural birth. And im rather disappointed to hear that baby is not engaged yet, which means he is likely stay in my tummy longer and his head & size will keep growing bigger and my chance of natural delivery will be lower.

One more week...

hubby will back from Beijing. Counting down to the day...

I have been praying hard that Yan An will stay safe in my tummy till Papa's return. Feeling so heavy and breatheless recently... Yan An has been a very good boy all the while so i believe he will "cooperate" with Mama & Papa this time round as well... Love you so much my little boy... :)

Dog dog "ngai ngai ngai"

Mama, there's a dog dog there!

Dog dog "ngai ngai ngai"

Why dog dog dun bother to response to me at all...

Mama, why dog dog don't want to make friend with me... *tutu mouth again*

Dog dog don't want to play with me, then i play with Ah Ma's plantsOh-oh, Ah Gong back home already... I better stop plucking the leaves!

He has been saying this - Dog dog "ngai ngai ngai" recently coz my mama has been teaching him to say "dog dog 来来来" but he cant pronounce properly :p

He has been trying hard to catch the attention of our neighbour's dog, but it is such a lazy dog so it totally oblivious of Zq's callings.. Poor boy... But i love to hear he say this "ngai ngai ngai", so cute la! :)

Cool boy

Mama said weather is very hot nowadays, so got me this cool sunglasses!

(Actually it was an obiang sunglasses my mama bought in her secondary school days, she now clearing her garang-guni stuff at ah ma's place, so this is "mine" now :p)

Bong bong is fun!

Ah Ma has to take over the duty to bong bong for me since Papa is not around and Mama is heavily pregnant... I sure love Ah Ma bong bong for me coz she sings songs and let me play with water longer :p

Cool water... Shiok!
Let me see what's inside this bucket...
Mama said im too busybody...
Okay, then let me check is this shower foam good for my delicate skin...
