3 days MCs

Baby baby, yesterday Mummy finally saw a small watersac. However, Mummy still could not see you. The gyane told Mummy got to wait around 2 more weeks. Wow so long. Anyway, Mummy will be seeing Dr Ann Tan next Monday, hopefully your heart will be beating strong by then.

Mummy is on 3 days MCs now. Mummy may be extending the MCs to 2 more days and see if Dr Ann Tan will be able to give Mummy more MCs next week. Else, Mummy will start taking no pay leave.

The school already knew about Mummy's pregnancy and is getting another teacher to coteach with Mummy. They know about Mummy's history, and is predicting Mummy will go on leave soon, I think.

Anyway, baby baby, you must jia you, and grows well. Mummy has sacrificed a lot, and maybe even my career just to ensure your safety. You must be strong and come out full term, and healthy, ok?

Week 5

Mummy will be seeing you today, as Mummy had some brown discharge over the weekends, and would like to seek doctor's advice.

Mummy used to have abnormal discharge when I was pregnant with your two Gor Gors as well. This time, not again!

Anyway, Mummy was quite worried about you, and was eager to see whether the water sac is visible now.

Mummy even hopes to see your heartbeat now, but not very likely as it is too early.

Anyway, my little one, do continue to grow well. You will be forming all your organs etc now, please grows well, and forms well.

Mummy loves you.

Baby baby, how are you?

Mummy went back to work after 2 days of MCs. Didn't write to you because ever since hearing what the Raffles gynae said, Mummy got a bit sianz, and discouraged.

But baby baby, you are doing well inside Mummy right?

Mummy is still having cough, and it seems to get worse. The cough mixture is not effective at all.

Baby baby, Mummy hopes to be able to see you soon. Maybe next Monday will pester Daddy to bring me to check again. Hope can see a small water sac.

Mummy on MCs for two days

Went to see doctor just now, and doctor gave Mummy two days of MCs to rest.

Mummy actually had cough for quite some time, and sneezing quite badly at night.

Doctor said might be virus infection. It worried Mummy as I don't know whether the virus or the drugs will affect your formation?

You know your 2nd gor gor has moderate hole in his heart when he was borned. Mummy remembered I caught flu virus and was on flu medicine during the 1st trimester as well. Mummy was thinking whether it was due to that?

Or could it be due the chinese medicine I drank during 1st trimester because at that time, Mummy had spotting, and grandma said drinking some chinese medicine could keep the baby safe.

Now Mummy is also drinking Chinese medicine from Ma Kuang, and is planning to do that for the rest of the pregnancy as Mummy hopes it will build up Mummy's health and keep you safely inside me.

But so many unknowns, so many fears in me.

Mummy really wants you to grow well. Mummy is really useless, I don't know how to protect you and your two gor gors. :(

Sorry, baby.

Mummy has decided from today onwards, Mummy will recite 大悲咒everyday. Hopefully, buddhas will see my sincerety and grant you a healthy, strong, and full body.

Seeing you today again

Mummy had wanted to take some MCs to rest at home, cause Mummy really feels very very tired so I asked Daddy to go to Raffles Women's clinic with me at Compasspoint today.

Sadly, the gynae didn't want to give Mummy any MCs. She also discouraged Mummy by saying that you might not exist! I hated the lady. She told me there were the possibilities of ectopic pregnancy or even biochemical pregnancy. Both types of pregnancies meant that you didn't exist. She said that because she did a scan for mummy and could not see anything, not even a tiny sac.

:( Baby, Mummy believe you do exist and you are here to be our child. Please be strong for Mummy. Mummy is not able to take any MCs to rest, so Mummy still needs to walk a lot. You must really be strong, ok? Mummy will visit another gyane in two weeks time, by then we should be able to see a sac with your heartbeat.

Maybe tomorrow Mummy will be taking a day MC to rest because Mummy had been having cough for quite some time. But Mummy is a bit worried that if I take cough mixture, it will not be good for you. I really hope not, will ask the doctor to give me the mildest mixture.

Work

Mummy is going back to work today after a few weeks of holiday. Mummy actually feels very tired today, and has no mood or energy, but still Mummy has to go to work.

Hopefully after seeing Dr Ann Tan on Thursday, she can give me some MCs and Hospitalisation leaves to rest at home.

Dear baby, continues to jia you and grows well. Mummy will be standing and walking quite a bit, but you must continue to be incredible, ok?

Mummy loves you!

Names

It may be way too early to think of a name for you. But Mummy has already thought of names for you.

Mummy will name you, if you are a boy:

Jack Tan

and if you are a girl:

Violet Tan

You like the names?

Your two gor gors are name Jared (meaning strong) and Dash (incredible dash). So you will be Jack or Violet!

Both of the names are from the Incredibles cartoon! hee. Daddy and Mummy hope that you will be like both of your gor gors, they are so incredible!

We are the incredible family!

Daddy becomes a Vegetarian

Baby, baby, you know how much Daddy loves you? Daddy has decided to be a vegetarian from now till Mummy smoothly gives birth to you.

Daddy decides to stop eating meat, because he wants to gather more goodness, and hopefully, Mummy will have a smooth pregnancy and delivery, and gives birth to a healthy, strong, and full term baby.

My dear dear baby, Daddy and Mummy love you with all our hearts. Daddy loves you in his way, and Mummy in my way, your gor gor though still very young, loves you as well, do continue to jia you for the sakes of us all. We are really looking forward to living with you, and watching you grow each day.

Mummy will be going back to work tomorrow. Mummy will have to walk and stand a lot. My baby, do be strong, ok? Mummy will be resting soon. Mummy hopes to be able to ask Dr Ann Tan to give me MCs and hospitalisation leaves to rest at home after seeing her on Thursday. If nothing goes wrong, Mummy can start resting from next week onwards.

Check up at Thomson medical at AMK hub

Today, Mummy got a bit worried of the pain in my stomach cause Mummy was not sure whether the pain came from the stomach or womb, so I asked Daddy to accompany me to Thomson Medical at AMK hub for checkup.

Mummy did the pregnancy test, and it was positive. The gynae did a scan for mummy but we could not see you. It was still too early. The gynae told Mummy in about two weeks time, we should be able to see your heartbeat.

Mummy really hopes to be able to see your heartbeat soon. :) Next thursday, Mummy will go to see Doctor Ann Tan. Hopefully, can see the water sac by then.

Meanwhile, my little baby, continue to grow well in Mummy's womb, jia you!

When to start resting?

For you my baby, Mummy will really start taking good care of myself throughout the pregnancy.

Mummy just hopes that all my efforts will pay off, and you will be born healthy, strong and full term.

But Mummy is wondering when I should start resting? Should I rest now, or should I rest till you are 3 months old?

Mummy is really not sure. Actually, Daddy and Mummy are not wealthy so we will have to really save and shrimp when Mummy goes on no pay, but for your sake, we are willing to do anything.

Just remember baby, you must jia you, everyday keep growing well, and most importantly, remain in Mummy's womb till full term.

Waiting for your arrival

My dear baby, Mummy is patiently waiting for your arrival. Mummy has bought a romper for you. I do not know whether you are a boy or girl so I bought white colour, but it doesn't matter, Mummy just hopes that you can grow to be strong and healthy, and most importantly, to be full term baby.

Hope that throughout this 10 months with Mummy, both of us will be strong and healthy, and everything will go on smoothly for us.

My first gift to you, waiting for you baby, jia you!

Mummy's 1st post
