Week 30 Check Up

i have really been looking forward to this check-up. i wanted to make sure the baby's doing fine after the gold coast trip. there were some days where he hardly ever moved, so i was really worried. the first thing i asked when we went into the doctor's clinic was..."doctor, can i opt for an induce??" hehehe...honestly, i'm so tired and my stomach's really heavy. she asked when do i want the induce. i told her..."in 6 weeks please". she consulted her notes and went..."what!?!? in your 36th week?? no way!!" oh darn it...so i negotiated, "what about in 8 weeks time?" her only answer was..."we'll see". then she recommended me to the physio department, to get a maternity belt (i tried it on. omigod...it was so nice! it really made a difference!)

anyway, the results of my check up was great. baby presented his face for all to see. even my gynae was schocked. she said..."this is a great shot, do you want a 3D scan?" of course i said yes. she showed us the baby's face on the monitor and quickly printed a copy, scared that the baby may move. after showing off the printed photo, she went back to work.

the baby's head is already facing downwards, alhamdulillah. his measurements are fine & on track. also got a nice shot of his bum bum and testicles...hahaha!! he's slightly ahead of his schedule in terms of size (size-wise he's 31 weeks) and his weight is 1.5kg. a possibility of another 3+kg baby. without hesitation, i told the doctor..."ok, another epidural shot then.:"

here's the photo my gynae printed. everyone agreed he looks like amir when amir was a baby, which is like me, rather than like hubby now that amir's bigger. i love his little pouting mouth.

p/s met dot (aka hot mama) and her little hotness, aka baby aidan, who is just soooo adorable. rasa nak cubit-cubit baby dia.
