33 Weeks and growing strong!!

Baby Keanan!!! Finally after a good long wait of 4 weeks, daddy and mummy got to see you again this morning!!

You currently weigh 2.16kg at 33 weeks, and mummy put on another 2kg from the last checkup, from 50 to 52kg now. Seems like we are both putting on steadily!! Good job baby!! Let's jiayou together ya?? Gynae says it's a normal weight, no longer said baby is big. I'm confused though... I want baby to be chubby but at the same time, I'm scared of the difficulty to give birth if you are too big. Anyway, I'm gonna get durians to eat later with Hazel Ma!!! Buff u up just a little bit more.. Hehe...

Here's a picture of your handsome face today. Can't figure out who u look like but your nose bridge seems high still. Papa says eyes big like him. I couldn't make that out though.



Next visit will be at 35 weeks, another 2 weeks more. And subsequently will be every weekly!! How happy, can see you more often and don't have to wait for so long for each visit anymore! Which also means, we are going to see each other soon!!!

Asked Dr.Henry quite a number of questions today too.
1) Hips very small, can go natural?
He said can, and went on to say the hip bone will still open up more. And he said he ever had one mama who's about the same size as me and her baby was 4kg and she did it naturally. POWER!!
2) How to differentiate Braxton Hicks (BH) and real contractions? How to time contractions?
He smiled and said, "don't worry, you'll sure know if it's the real contractions. Cos they are painful de. And BH are not. Contractions will gradually increase over time. Maybe start with 1 hour once, then 40mins, then 30mins, then 20mins. When 10mins once, can go to hospital already, though it's still early." And he smiled again...
3) Baby very active will result in premature? Active until tummy feels really tight and uncomfortable.
He assured me again not to worry. Worry only when baby is not active. And said baby active is good ah!! :)
4) Daddy is going for reservist from 2nd Jan to 18th Jan. Need to defer? Will I give birth anytime during that time?
He asked me not to worry. Nowadays reservist very relaxed. He will just give me a letter stating my EDD for daddy to show to officer. And in any case, he will be able to book out.
Well, they better allow papa to remain contactable at ALL TIMES. If not I sure panic until Lao Sai or sure panic until contractions will be even more painful and I'm gonna curse and swear at your daddy cos he also said no need to defer!

Mummy hasn't been taking tummy's picture for quite a long time.. The last one was also taken during maternity shoot during 32nd week. So today I asked daddy to take again! And here comes the comparison pictures too.
