Week 13 Day 1,She confimed that Xanthus currently is quite stable now and I can start to do some exercise if I want. But exercise, I don't have so much time to go for exercise, I think I will prefer to have more sleep if possible. But we did plan for a short Holiday to HK, after we knew I could go for short trip.
He is currently 6.66cm and waving to us when the gynae conduct the ultrasound. Daddy is very excited to see his active movement from the scaning machine.
Week 17 Day 4,This round, gynae did a quite details scan. Partially, he keep moving, and gynae cannot take a good shot and good measurement. She show us his little tummy and curled his whole body up. Seems like we are disturbing him from resting. This is taken before we left for our HK, Macau trip. Anyway, I had very bad morning sickness. But my morning sickness usually occured during the night or late afternoon. I can throw up whatever I ate, and having a empty stomach. I also don't know how I endured these weeks.
Length : 10.86cm
Week 23
We had schedule our details scan with TMC, for more details scanning. It was done straight after we are back from holiday. I was fully discover from morning sickness and start to eat a lot in HK and Macau. Especially those oily food, like fried pork bun, timsum, fastfood. Yummy yummy.
Daddy can see him quite clearly during the scan, but due to the angle of the screen, I did not have a very good view. The nurse conducted the scanning told us, should be a boy. Anyway we are both happy to get either a boy or girl. As this is our 1st child, does not matter to us.
Week 24 day 4, This round I had increase 4kg within a month, I think I am overwhelm by can eat a lot of good food and did not give myself any restriction to any food temptation. Just eat and drink which ever I liked. Especially, this month there is a week I went back to stay with my parents. They afraid that I did not eat, then cook a lot of dishes for my dinner. By the time I reached home already 9 to 10 plus after OT. Before I board the train, I already have something light for dinner. So It was like a week of supper for me.
This round gynae did not tell us his length only mentioned abt his weight approx 700g. Then I already put on 10 kg from my original week. Sob sob, he is not even 10% of my weight. Seems like all the food intake had build fats in my body.
Week 28 day 1, This visit really gave my gynae a shock, cos I gained another 5Kg more from their last measurement. She was like questioning me, what did I had within the month. Basically, I don't know I just eat and eat. Feel hungry just eat, feel like eating that kind of food, then just eat. Never think of I could gain so much within a month. Maybe I ate too much bakery stuff, like swiss roll (my favourite), then cheese bun, etc. I can have 2 slice of swiss roll and 3 cheese buns for my breakfast. Then another2 slice of swiss roll for my late tea break.
As for my lunch, I could have a plate of mixed rice, then another plate of wantan mee. I can finish them all, w/o leaving any left over.
Maybe that's the reason I gained so much.
This time gynae only focus on guiding me to have a proper diet, the scanning part she just scanned to get his weight. We also did not have a very good look, partially Xanthus keep moving around. really hard to catch a proper view.
Then I also having some problem with my top right tummy, cos I keep feeling very painful after food intake. gynae expect might be galloon stone or some liver problem. Anyway, I also can't do much as pregnancy will have a lot of restriction in medication intake. So I just choose to ignore the problem first.
Xanthus weight: 1.2Kg. Average Size.

Pregnancy can be very interesting and also can be very tough for me.
I start to realise that my body is not feeling that good and seeing a few doctors, most of them said I might having stomach flu or etc. I also thought could I be pregnant and I tried on the pregnancy kit by myself also having negative result.
Till the Week 5 of my pregnancy, I see a GP again for pregnancy test, and the result is positive.
Then he advise us to look for gynae for further pregnancy details.
So we also never ask people for recommedation or what, our priority is to get a female gynae. Cos I will not be comfortable to see a male gynae and so do him.
We went to TMC and get the gynae list from the information counter then just choose those doctor with one look and we know is a female doctor. Then we called for enquiry. We choose ACJ, partially it was the top few gynae on the list. We choose Dr. Caroline Khi, cos we prefer the timing of the appointment than another female doctor. That's how we select our gynae. LoL.
1st AppointmentWe are very excited and looking forward. As don't know how will it be like.
She is a very friendly and caring doctor, as for our 1st impression.
She perform the Ultrasound scan for us to confirm my pregnancy. Before she start, she also mentioned to us we might not be seeing baby heartbeat as it might be too early.
Then we are really lucky, we can heard Xanthus's heart beat at the point of time.
He was very tiny, 0.41cm only. We only manage to see his heartbeat blinking on the screen.
Dr. Caroline give as 2 photos of the ultra sound she done for us.
2nd AppointmentThis is Week 11 Day 1.
I cant't really recalled what had happended, only knew Xanthus had grew 10 times from last time we saw him.
That's really interesting.
From what gynae scan, he was 4.27cm cm in term of length.
