(2005) Brides of year 2005

ting - haha.. my hb was also not a very easy bb.. so i wonder how my bb will be.. haha.. but in e tummy he quite okies so far.. and the best thing is he seems to be responding to my hb's voice.. at first we weren't sure but i realise it's been v consistent for a few weeks already! hee.. so hopefully he will respond to my hb when he's out too! haha
 


Newbbi~

Haha.. Ya lor, a lot of people say he looks like me. He's relatively a happy baby also. Every morning when he wakes up after he finish his milk, he will definately give u a big smile!
 
caitlyn,
my bb also will missed my hb.
over the CNY, my hb also on long leave.
when he return to work, my bb actually keep moving in my tummy. then i "ask" bb whether he looking for daddy and "told" bb that daddy is working and will only be back the next day. then after awhile then bb stop "wiggling" in my tummy.

when i told my hb, he so happy. when he return the next day, talk to bb and bb actually move for a while then stop. hahahaa...so amazing!!
 
caitlyn~

When cayden in my tummy, he very mischivous one. Kick until like nobody business den when my hb wanna feel, he stops kicking. Always like that! And my hb thinks i bluffing him!

I think when cayden still inside, he very afraid of his daddy one. I even have the feeling he guai guai obey his daddy when he overheard his daddy telling me that: "hopefully u give birth during the weekends ar. If not, i so busy dunno if i can accompany u to the delivery suite anot"

Den 'pop' cayden came out the following day, which is a sunday!!

And i was only into 37 weeks gestation only! I still thought i jolly have at least 2 more weeks to do my shopping!!

Haha..
 
hee.. was telling my hb think tt sometimes we think bb is too smart.. how is it possible he can understand wat we say? hahahha.. but for me, i think he recognizes the sound only lah.. just tt sometimes when u tell him to do certain things, he so happen to do then we think he understand us! hahaa

afternoon snowy,
MS = Morning Sickness
y do you doubt the doc?
when's your last menses?

all,
me dunno what happen. 1st tristmer no vomiting.
now in into my 19th week, on and off after meals will vomit out my food.
 
hehehe... oic :p but tik that is nt MS.. mayb bb had a bad dream ;p

my last menses on 2/1... but ovalution only start 2weeks after mah... than y calculate straight after menses leh.... my colleague also said y so weird calculation.
Anyway i also dunno... so jus tik the doc hv correct calculation lor....
 
snowy,
think you are in your 9th week leow.
but actually preggie is 7 weeks.
like what you say, your ovalation is 2 weeks later.

like for eg, i am in my 19th weeks now in doctor's term. but actually no of weeks of preg is 17th weeks.
dunno whether you understand me a not.
 
snowy_casper, caitlyn, newbbi, all
No problem. If you find the listing relevant, just print out the listing first, can keep for now or future reference... cos not easy to find such posting got such detail listing.
 
Linda
huh, got like tt huh ??? I tot my bb is 19th weeks this week too, so in actual fact, me oso 17 weeks huh ???? Same as you ???
 
jenn,
thanks for the list.
i also dunno leh.
as for the bb weeks, initially when i discover that i am preggie, i went to see my gynae.
he told me that i am 5.5 weeks preggie in doc term but 3.5 weeks in actually pregnancy.
 
Caitlyn~

I couldn't agree more with you! Even if gynae tells u is xx weeks, baby still decides when he wants to pop out! That is just a very rough calculations! The gynae will even take measurements from ur scans to determind how many weeks u're preggie. Just speculations...
 
NewBBI~

Now ar~ Maternal instict very strong lor. At night, he let out a sound only can make me jump out of my bed and rush to him liao! Stress ar!

But lucky my mummy helping me. Every sat evening i bring cayden to my mum's place den she look after. Sunday i fetch him back. Den we have our couple time.. ?If not for my mum....
 
they are quite alrite.. no special anxious or anything....
