injection
Today I took child sick leave to bring my ger for her 18th mth injection and doctor consultation. She is in a bad mood as she did not have enough sleep, and have to wake up early to go polyclinic for injection. My ger is only 8.4kg........seems like the weight taken last time is wrong. I always thought she is 9kg already.sighz......she eat so much but is so underweight.
Today I signed up for cordblood banking for my 2nd ger. thought about it for my 1st ger last time, but until delivery still din make effort to sign up, so i din bank my 1st ger cordblood. For 2nd child, got the CDA account, so can use for cordblood payment.
Next week my ger will go for swimming class for both saturday and sunday as one of the lesson is a make up lesson for the previous lesson she missed. She enjoyed her swimming classes alot. She gets very excited and will shout out loud.
Yesterday we bring her to a free photo studio trial session, and got 2 free photos.will upload the 2 photos later:)

lastest update
yesterday i went for my gynae visit and baby is now 1kg at 28 week.
About the same size as my 1st girl. My 1st one was also 1kg at week 28.
This time round i manage to cut down my weight increase. At 28 weeks, i put on 8kg. The 1st pregnancy, I put on 11kg at week 28. Hopefully this time round i will be able to take a shorter time to slim down.
My next appointment will be 2 weeks later. That will be week 30. And my glucose and blood test result will be ready by then. hopefully i will not get diabetic.

a big scare
I had a big scare last thursday. Was halfway teaching my chinese lit lesson in the afternoon when i suddenly felt like vomitting and dirhearra. Tried to finish the lesson in a hurry and went to toilet. Puke all my lunch out and also diheorra at the same time. After that felt my stomach very tight.
Thought i was going to give birth liao. But only 27weeks.Too prematured. Call my gynae clinic, but gynae was overseas for a conference. I told the nurse i got stomach cramp, need to see doc. She help me to arrange for the relief gynae covering my gynae.
I sat at the bus stop waiting for her to reply me and seems like stomach cramp not getting better. was so scare that I was going to give birth liao, and i phone the clinic staff again. finally manage to get the relief doc, and i took a cab to A and E of mount A.
The nurses there were very nice and friendly. was given a wheel chair and push to the delivery suite. stayed there to monitor whether got contraction. rested for 30 minutes, actually felt better already.
when the gynae came, he said most probably i ate the wrong food...something to do with stomach flu whether. No regular contraction. I was so relieved.
Was given one day MC. But din used it as i have alot of work to do in sch the next day. Lucky it not real contraction, if not really dun know what to do. baby too premature to survive at week 27.
tomolo I will be going for my regular gynae appointment at Mount E. Have not seen my bby thro' scan for 1 month already. After tonite dinner, have to fast until tomolo morn 8plus after i take my glucose test. will be doing blood test as well. So tomolo will be on MC.

gynae visit
This morning I went mount E for my gynae visit. Baby is now 600g at week 24.
Have signed up for the gynae package. 3 times more expensive than my previous gynae, but i decide to go for a try. For this pregnancy, likely to spent a few more thousand in cash as compared to my 1st girl. next appoinment will be on 22nd Jan.
school going to start soon, I have alot of lesson preparation to do, but din really have mood to do. Wanted to wait for tomolo staff meeting, see the classes i will be teaching and my time table and my duties for next year. Hopefully i will be offload.

recovering
currently recovering from flu. Getting very much better except still got some nose block. Spent the 3 days 2 nights in bintan to rest. complete rest. been sleeping like almost the whole 2 days.
Have been putting on weight quite fast for these few weeks. Felt my stomach getting bigger and also feeling more tired easily. Seems like very heavy until I dun felt like walking much.
Now my girl like to point to my belly button and say "meimei". Dun know if she thought that the belly button is meimei or she just anyhow point. I did an experiment. Yesterday i point at my hubby belly button and ask what's that. Then my girl say "yee yee"(dirty)...haha.......lucky she din say "meimei",cannot imagine how she can think that a belly button is her sister.
I've been thinking of bring my girl to the zoo. She never went to zoo before. Now she can recognize some animals, should be a good time to visit the zoo.
This coming friday, my girl will be going for her MMR jab. (measles, mumps, rubella)
hopefully she wun kena any fever. This will most probably be her last injection for the next 1 yr unless i decided to let her go for the chicken pox jab.

flu
I'm sick again.
Since Saturday nite. felt my throat quite sore and it started from the sore throat. Think the weather too hot and maybe also I worry too much these few days.
Just went to see a GP. Got some flu medicine. Tomolo going Bintan, better get medicine 1st, in case become worse over there.
Yesterday went Mount E to see my "new" gynae. I have decided to switch my current gynae to this new gynae in Mount E. I found him very detailed.( come at a high price of coz) Did another very detail scan and his machine is very updated, have 4D scan. Look into bb's brain and all other major parts of body and organs. Found them normal. The cysts in brain still there. But what the new gynae said tally with what my previous gynae said. He felt that the bb is normal, just that happened to have the cysts, probably nothing to do with trisonmy 18. Most trisomy 18 babies are stillborn or not living past a few days/months.rarely have living case of trisomy 18.But there is no yes or no answer unless I do amino. test, which can result in a certain percentage of miscarriage. I dun wan to take the risk, i might lose a perfectly healthy bb, so i just keep my fingers crossed and wait for another 5 months for the answer.
Spent 550 bucks yesterday just for consultation and scan, but felt better after a 2nd opinion. Have decided to change gynae but have yet inform my previous clinic. This time round, i will be giving birth in Mount Alvernia instead of TMC.
Have not been able to sign up for the package yesterday, as mine case still belongs to "high risk", so have to wait another 1 or 2 consultation before i can take the package. Think will have to spent quite alot of money on my 2nd girl. But doesn't matter how much i spent, as long as she is normal and healthy. This is what money cannot buy.

what i want
I think my in laws wanted to have a grandson badly. Yesterday nite my hubby reveal that my xiao mo tou is going to have a sister. My MIL remark was "you4 shi4 yi1 ge4 nu3 de4" (another girl again). She has 3 granddaughters now, but no grandson yet. Next year she will have 4 granddaughters.Then she mentioned that "its time to change flowers" (huan4 hua1), dun know what she meant.
To me, gender is no longer important. What I want is just a healthy baby. My ideal number of children is 3. I have already told my hubby that he have to be prepare to have 3 daughters. My hubby likes daughters, so he doesn't mind. But i guess my in laws will be very disappointed.
My own parent side is ok as my girl is the 1st grandchild in the entire extended family. Only one cousin is married but no kids yet. So my girl got all the attention she want from my family side. She is like a little "xiao3 ba4 wang1", no one fight with her for anything.
As long as my baby is healthy and normal, doesn't matter girl or boy, and i dun mind having a 3rd girl, as long as she is healthy and normal.

my gloomy days
since yesterday, i cannot sleep well..keep thinking about the cysts........
This morning, I made an appointment with a gynae in Mount E. The appointment is 4dec. Have also schedule for a 2nd detail scan on the same day.
My current gynae is ok, just that I need more reassurance from another doctor's point of view. And i know this gynae in Mount E is very detail, i need a more definite confirmation.
still feeling very uncomfortable about the scanning....I guess I will only feel more secure after the consultation with the 2nd gynae.

my scary detail scan
I went for my detail scannig at TMC today and scare the hell out of me.
My baby ger got these "bilateral choroid plexuses cysts" in her brain.
right side 5.4mm x 3.3mm and left side 10.3mm x 5.6mm.
After the scan, I went to my gynae clinic to wait for my appointment with him at 4.30pm. His operating hours start 4.30pm today. Before that i went library and check up on the cysts and discover something to do with down syndrome.
After seeing my gynae, felt more assured. Before that while i was waiting, I almost want to start crying already.
My gynae say 10 years ago, the cysts are said to be related to down syndrome, but now it is proven to be more related to trisomy 18. But if the baby has trisomy 18, there will be other very obvious signs on other organs and body struture. other than the cysts thing, my baby scan on other parts of body are alright. So he say he can be 99.99percent sure that the cysts will go away by themselves by 28weeks.
with the 99.99percent assurance from him, i felt much better, but still a part of me is very worried. should i go for a second opinion? or should i go for a 2nd scan? I am thinking of going for a 2nd scan at week 24, just to make sure the cysts disappear. There are just too many questions in my mind. Does the disappearing of the cysts means that my baby is normal, will there be any side effects that cannot be detect now becoz of the cysts?
