Pregnancy Update - 28 weeks

Today marks the day I'm officially 28 weeks. That means I will be able to see my baby in another 12 weeks, 3 more months to go...Yuppie.
Towards my end of 2nd and beginning of 3rd trimester, I'm already experiencing the 3rd trimester symptoms.

1) I'm definitely feeling more tired, need to be on bed as early as possible and dragging my feet to work every morning.

2) Leg cramp in the night seems to be in part of me, sometimes on the left, sometimes on the right and sometimes occurs at both leg. It sure hurts and even after the cramp had released, the muscle will still felt the tightness and be pained for another 2 days.

3) I'm producing alot of heat and feel extremely warm in my entire body, used to enjoy covering with blanket during sleep but now i do not need it at all and aircon and full blast power fan is a must throughout the night. If aircon timer is set, I will sure to wake up with a sweaty neck every morning. Good thing is i do not need to fold my blanket every morning cause it will still be nicely fold when i wake up :P

4) Sleeping position had finally change from back to side or at least bb needs to be at the side of the tummy when I'm sleeping.

5) Felt breathless sometimes therefore medicated oil is also a must in my baggie...just a rub to the nose will boost me up, at least I know I won't faint away.

6) Baby kicks are getting more and more powerful and I'm really glad and enjoying it. This means that baby is ensuring mummy that he is growing well and strong inside me.

Lastly, I'm going to have a mini fasting this Friday night as i will be on a series of tests this Saturday morning. Hope bb weight had increased and very excited to be able to see him again.

Baby Lim is Out!

My niece, Janelle is out on 15 Sep at 3 plus wee hours. Weighing a good healthy weight of 3.3kg. My SIL had a labour period of 14 hours and with forcep assisted, she is finally out. Janelle had a head of black, shiny and neat hair and everyone says she is so adorable. Now i'm the only one in the family left pregnant and everyone is so anxious to see my baby whom will be arriving in another 3 months time.
Below is a picture of my loving niece, her face can still be seen with the forcep mark but it will slowly fade off as days goes.





Just got the news from my brother that poor gal needs to be in the hospital today till tomorrow for the photo therapy as her jaundice reading was rather high, 15. So she will not be sleeping from home today.

Pregnancy Update - 24 weeks

Just went for my 24 weeks check last Sat morning and gynae said bb is in acceptable weight of 640 grams. From the scan, I can see bb face and his little feet.. Btw, my weight gain was only 6 kg since my 1st preggie check, seems to be lighter than my previous weighing. I guess I must have remember my weight wrongly during the 1st check and also the time of taking my previous weight was during the night time which was much heavier :P
Next check shall be my 28 weeks which will be on 29 Sep and gynae said they need to do diabetes test for me as my family history have such and I need to fast from 12 midnight till next morning 9am.....Pray everything is normal.

Here's the pic.....1st on the left is his small feet with 5 toes and on the right is his face feature.
Pardon me for the unclear pic cause i got a lousy hand :P
