Detailed scan next week

Anxious and at the same time worried about the detailed scan next week. Hopefully everything will be fine….can see baby moving and also the gender :) Not sure how it will be like though, I'm getting more and more tired as days go by And bigger and bigger…..tummy suddenly seem to have grown big overnight Going to start reading and singing to baby soon…..hopefully our tai jiao is not shortlived haha

Again!

I had spotting again!… :(
Though not much, just a little…..was so worried. I went to see our dear gynae and he checked tat everything is fine….. bb looks ok…..still very active……
I can see it rotating or turning inside me…..and the action is bigggg
Amazing feeling…..think those who are parents will know what I mean. So now i got to be extra careful and keep monitoring, god bless our little one
As long as are healthy, we will do anything……

“Baby move, baby so active” in filipino english

"ohhh……baby move……..baby so active…….baby keep moving……..so active" These are all the comments we heard from the sonographer when she did our oscar test. She's a filipino so she said all that in filipino english….we kept repeating what she said after the test cos it so special to us and reminded us of the whole event. My tummy could not feel anything, we can see our little fellow moving so much but i just felt nothing. We can't help but smile and laugh when we saw it moving so much…..always in constant motion….changing position so often sometimes lying flat, sometimes in opposite direction end up the scanning took almost an hour….most people just took 15 to 20 mins. But it is definitely good for us cos we get to see little fellow more. We could see its little hands, little legs, little head, little tummy. So so so so so so so so happy, never been happier….guess happier days are constantly coming….words can never describe how we felt…..we filmed the whole event down so that It will keep reminding us how fortunate and grateful we are and will always be

So worried

We were so worried last week when i got some slight spotting :(
Went to the docs a few times, it is probably due to constipation not it is nothing major.
Our little fellow is doing fine
Thank god….we were so relieved
Duno since when we started to get worried on every single little thing

Got a bad gastric problem on valentine’s day as well…..got to be start to be really careful on what I eat.

Time to start documenting

Yeah 1 year has passed…..with so many things happening to us…..good and bad
The poster we did for our wedding was pasted on the wall in front of our bed…..everytime i looked at it it reminds me of how lucky i am to be with my beloved hb.
But soon, this blog will no longer be dedicated to us but to our little bundle of joy :)
I got to start writing whatever i can remember….nowadays my memories are so bad. Where should i start….hmmm…….
I will take a long time to do up the journal for our little fellow…..will extract some to post it online soon……

Album almost done!

We are almost done with the photo album for our wedding day, albeit 1 year has passed. Now all remains is the cover image and some text images for the dust jacket for the cover.

Anyway here is the poster that we designed for our wedding day. Some things wished i had fixed was the size of the pegs. The pegs should be smaller. Otherwise, i quite like the poster, it was finally printed out on 2xA0 cardboard and placed on the entrance of our wedding banquet.

Wedding poster

Bird nest and more.

Just got some concentrated bird nest from Lo Hong Ka.

http://www.lohongka.com/sg/eng/index.php?na=int_product_bn.php

The bird nest looked very hard when looking at the counter. It looked super concentrated as compared to the other concentrates brand. It has only 5% water in the birdnest, thus it looks very dry and hard, as compared to the other brands. According to the sales-girl, it consisted of about 6 pieces of bird nest. There are two variety of the concentrated birdnest, one of which is the sugarless and the other with 3% sugar. It is a product of Singapore with Indonesia origin’s birdnest. There was a promotion, thus we got 2 bottles with free 6 bottles of normal birdnest. Furthermore i still had my standard charted 10% rebate going on for this month. As the birdnest is boiled locally and stock is refreshed

Wedding album

Finally i am almost done with the wedding album done at blurb using booksmart. It is a 370 pagger :) Includes almost 95% of the photos taken in the wedding. Here are some of the resources i used in the love quotes that i have placed all over my book. http://www.theromantic.com/lovequotes http://www.useful-information.info/quotations/wedding_quotes.html http://www.wisdomquotes.com/cat_marriage.html http://www.great-quotes.com/cgi-bin/viewquotes.cgi?action=search&orderby=rate&Category=Love&startlist=1 http://www.lovequotesden.com/love-quotes-1.shtml Do let me know if any of you wants to see the album.

Coughs

The cough turned out to be more serious then we though.

It was some virus in the chest or around there. Medical terms were throw around, but basically it we had a videoscope done through the nose, to see whether the throat, voice box, nose was inflamed. it wasn’t fortunately.

Unfortunately though, the doctor believed that it was the chest was inflamed. It would need a dose of steriods inhalenet and other stuff to clear it. The cough that kept coming up was because there was acid reflux irritating the throat. Thus it was often advise to sleep with elevated pillows. This would prevent the acid from flowing downwards and this is why the cough usually get worst at night.

We didn’t go ahead with this course or action, but rather went to see our “usual” doctor to solve it. We got Nexium, a very expensive pill, it was about 60 dollar for a 5 day course. We were taken aback when we were about to make payment at the pharmacy. Nexium helped to solve acid reflux, by preventing the production of acid. Another medicine was given to protect the bowel as well to line it, to make it less gastric.

What pisses me off on the whole incident though was that, after visiting almost like the hospital for 8 times? None of them gave such a diagnose of a gastric juice reflux. We were just usually given cough syrup. We had tried tons of them and none worked. And it took just another doctor to pinpoint the problem. This is a problem of misdiagnose. This reminded me of my slipdisc incident. Many years ago, I had a problem with my legs, there was always a pulling sensation intermittently. Seen the specialist for like almost 5 times, before he asked me to do a MRI, which i did ask before whether i should go and do a MRI. It then turned out to be a slip disc. On searching the internet one of the slip disc symptons was exactly what i was feeling, but the doctor did’nt even considered that as a possibility. Coming back again, reminds me of my colleague which had a mis-diagnose as well. He was mis-diagnosed for some virus in his blood, but actually it just turned out to be pneumonia. He had tons of test done on him, some of which even include extracting splinal fluid. Ouch! So in summary, do read up on the internet more to check for other possible conditions, but also you much check with a proper doctor as well.
So now my baby is feeling better but there is still some cough on and off. Hopefully this will just disappear with time. On a funny note, there was a old folk remedy for cough that seems to be true in Singapore, my baby’s colleague did ask her to do the following too : Rub vicks on the sole of the feet and wear socks after that during sleep. This was done for all the children that he had. I thought this was only an Internet thing. We were both very skeptical about it previously but had tried nevertheless.
