IT'S A BOY!!!!

After a super long 4 weeks wait!! Mummy and daddy have finally seen you again!! Before we go on,

Confirmed, we saw that big balls of yours. Lol!! Daddy is happiest cos no stress after this. Doesn't matter it's a boy or girl after you anymore!

You are really a cute and clever baby. Everytime mummy's doing the scan, you will be moving around as though you are as happy to see us too, waving your hands and moving your legs around. Awwww!! Too cute!!! Probably talking to you before the scan and asking you to open your legs big big did help! :D

Some pictures of your scans today -

And close-up!! Can see that high nose bridge? Grandma says your head's very round and "kok", look more like mummy!! 暗爽!
Now that we've know your gender, it's time for shopping!!! I must control not to buy too much!! Cos your cousin thaddeaus has alot to pass on to you. This blog post was supposed to have been up in this noon, but I was too engrossed in shopping online for the uber cute bodysuits. After shopping for one whole day looking around, mummy hasn't decided on which ones to get. Will be going down to one seller's house tomorrow to check out the 5-pc pack bodysuits and also to see the quality. If the quality is good enough, mummy will skip buying from the U.S websites. If the quality ain't up to my standard, I'll probably get a couple and ship from the U.S. Many things to do and shop!!!
Some U.S Websites shared by the Feb's Mother-to-Be's:
1) http://www.carters.com/ - quite a popular and common brand. They sell 5pcs packs and having 50% off now!! Will decide to buy or not after I check out the seller's store tomorrow. Doesn't ship to Singapore thus will definitely have to go through VPost for this website.
2) http://www.gymboree.com/index - the clothes are nice!! And quality looks good! But quality and pretty always comes with a "nicer" price tag too right? Shipping internationally cost USD32 for below USD125 purchases. Probably shipping to VPost will be cheaper then. 
3) http://www.ralphlauren.com/ - See the name already know it's very expensive. Branded!! Would be an out option for now cos you know you will outgrow your clothes really quickly and you already have whole lots of clothes for you. Mummy shall save the money for some other more useful items!!
4) Not to forget we have www.amazon.com to shop around too. If carter's main website's not having that 50% sale, amazon seems like a better choice. Got to go through VPost for this too. Will be checking out Amazon for the bigger items like your stroller and pram too. I've heard that we can save hundreds for them! Which means we have a few hundreds more, to buy a better one!
5) Lastly, for most convenience, there is always www.qoo10.sg (used to be known as Gmarket). But the quality might not be really good so will have to buy just 1 to try out first.

Any mummies who see this post and has any more good websites to recommend, please feel free to leave me a comment! Greatly appreciated!! :)

See? When mummy talk about shopping, the post can go non-stop. Enough of shopping. Haven't buy any for you but you already have 2 in your cupboard!! Courtesy from Ah Lian Yi Yi, next time remember to say thanks to her ya? Show you the really cute pictures!

Kawaii neh!!!

The dinosaurs are so adorable isn't it!!! Mummy loves clothes with dino, monkeys and giraffes!! Wonder if baby has any preference?

And starting from this day onwards, mummy has to start eating the multi-vitamins. Look how big they are and I just hate taking medicines!!! Wonder how I'm going to swallow them... And it's gonna be for the next 6 months, every single day! Baby, please be good, you see how mummy is sacrificing for you?
The one in the box is fish oil, for your brains, the pink ones are multi-vitamins, the white ones (bottom left) are calcium tablets. The one on the bottom right is not for you, but for mummy. Due to hormonal changes, mummy's nose has been very stucked every night and sometimes find it so difficult to fall asleep. Doctor prescribed that for better sleep. Mummy won't take that unless it's really necessary.

Today, your daddy also accompanied mummy to get some new bras. Went to spring maternity to get them, and even though they REALLY didn't feel that comfortable, I had no choice but to get it. I could never guess that my bra size would go from 32B to a 36C!!! LOL!!! Took some pictures but nah.. better don't post them, cos they are TOOOO UGLY!!! After speaking to Er Sao after I bought them, then realised they are pretty bad buys. No choice, i had to get them cos the old bras are already cutting into my skin and feel too uncomfortable. Some suggestions were to get from Marks & Spencer, not too ex and they come in packs of 3, or Nummies from Maternity Exchange. I think she had really good praises for Nummies. For the moment, not buying anymore until at least 3rd trimester? Afterall, all these things really don't come cheap. And I have to buy maternity wear too.. Sigh... MONEY MONEY MONEY...

So, baby, there are so many shopping to be done!! Please "bo pi" (bless in hokkien) your 老爸 close many many deals, earn more money cos life's getting pretty stressed up with the house coming and you coming too!!

I think that's about all for today... Mummy's been staring at the PC since afternoon 2pm till now. Oh, Aunty Tina (our housemaid) and mummy cleared more spaces in the cupboard today again to make space for your stuffs. Trying to clear AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE so that we won't have to buy a new cabinet too.

It will be another long wait before we can see you again. Next appointment:-  4th October at 2.55pm, and having your detail scan, which means we can see you for a longer time!! Also known as Anomaly Scan (click on link to know more). Till then, please be good in mummy's safe tummy, continue to be an active baby, and do take in all the nutrients from the foods that mummy's eating ya?


With lots and lots of love,
Mummy Jo.
