Gonna see my little one soon!

Supposed to visit gynae on 16-June if haven pop by then.

13-June(Fri): Felt less bb movements yesterday so went to see gynae. Everything OK except amniotic fluid abit on the lower side (of the normal range). So Dr Koh gave us 3 choices to decide.

1) Go to hospital to induce that very nite. Might have side effects cos gonna put Prostin to ripen the cervix.

2) Monitor closely and see

3) C-section

=> We decided Option #2 and monitor bb movements at the same time. After we came home, bb started moving more. So we went back for checkup on 14-June.

14-June: CTG scan for bb heartbeat is OK. Then gynae advise to admit tonight. Cos my weight no increase since Tues and level of amniotic fluid. And baby is full-term already so better to induce out to reduce any risk (eg: bb poo-ing inside...)

Am talking to bb now to get ready to come out. Don stay inside for too long... haha... so that my labour will be shorter.

Feeling excited and scare cos this is my #1. I will try to relax... Sending lotsa ELV (Easy Labour Vibes) to myself!!!! JIA YOU!!!! Must visualise the happiness of carrying my baby in my arms to motivate myself!

Pics taken at Henderson Waves

I went to the Hort Park 2weeks ago with PIL and hubby. We walked from Hort Park to the Henderson Waves and back! It was a nice long walk. I think the walk helped to get baby engaged. but my legs ached like crazy 3 days after that....

Didn't take much shots thou cos busy admiring the scenaries!


L-R: FIL, MIL and me on the Henderson Waves!
MIL and me....
Relaxing and enjoying the view from above!

Scenary...

Cloudy Day...

Today is the 3rd day of my Maternity Leave. Luckily today is a cloudy day.. so won't perspire too much. Cooked spaghetti for lunch. But I really got a problem with cooking spaghettic.... that is "I always overcook the amt of spaghetti cos I don't know how to estimate!" Argh! I must go get those ring-type device that helps to estimate how much uncook spaghetti to put into the boiling water. I cook very plain type today. No additional ingredients. Just sliced some garlic and then add the Prego fresh mushroom tomato based sauce. It tasted not bad... just a little dry. So I cooked like for 2pax when it's just for myself. I will heat up for dinner tonight. I chomped down 1.5 servings already... hehe...

I did some online purchase for baby and they arrived yesterday! It's actually meant for him when he's around 1 year old.

Cute Army-style outfit....

I like this orangy outfit. the tiny bermudas look abit retro hor. hehe....The below 2 Baby Gap outfits are bought by his Ah-Yi aka my sister. The packaging super duper sweet lor... Item #1: 3pcs of rompers. p/s: 1pc is missing. I pack it into my hospital bag liao for baby to wear home. =)Item #2: Kimono top and pants... plan for baby to wear to sleep liao.

Baby's stuff are really sweet. While waiting for my checkup's turn yesterday, I bought 2pcs of those 1pc suit for baby to wear to sleep. Cos I don't think I have much newborn size sleeping suit. This should complete my bb clothing for 1st 3 months liao. These days, I usually shop around for either hubby or baby's stuff. Not really interested in my own stuff lei. Went BHG @ Bugis last Sun, they have alot of baby's stuff there! Aiyo... but I control myself. never anyhow buy. Baby Fox's clothings very cute! But baby girl's clothing are so so nice! Baby boy's clothing still can ta-lek abit... My own shopping trip, wait till I slim down ba. =)

Privé (Marina at Keppel Bay)

Allan picked me up from work cos I got alot of barangs to bring home as I embark on my maternity leave. I suggested to go Food Republic at Suntec for dinner as we need to go supermarketing at Carrefour. But he brought me to Privé for dinner. I was pretty excited cos I saw fm the website it's a nice place. He said we better go now while we still couplehood. and also since I won't be returning to office so soon cos this place is super near to my office. OFF we go!

I really enjoyed it although we didn't speak alot... just absorbed in the relaxation and breeze blowing over us. I kinda can't bear to leave the place also... cos I don't know when's the next time I'll be back. Overall, the service is very good and price is reasonable. Finally, pics to share....

It's a fine weather day! That was a red Keppel flaggie....Another sun-set shot! It's lovely to watch sunset. I would advise you to go at 6plus~7pm so that you can slowly watch the sky goes dark. =)

Me against the suspension bridge. This is the bridge that you will drive into here.

Tada! Our food is here! Btw, we ate at the Bakery. This is Rosemary Chicken sandwich with manago. It's super yummy! Thumbs UP!

My slipper lobster linguine pasta! Really delicious as well and Allan kept aiming at my pasta while me at his sandwich. haha... A very satisfied me after I finished my pasta, it was pretty dark yah.*Psst, poor resolutions due to camera phone* but the candlelight there provided just the right amount of luminosity for the ambience. BUT I still had to order a dessert before I go. Ate a peacan nut pie... Not bad!I took this last shot as we strolled around the area before we left for Carrefour. The lights at the main structure of the bridge changes colour. Behind it actually can see Superstar Virgo/Gemini, cable cars although it doesn't show that clearly in the pic. Gotta see for urself.

Ever Thine, Ever Mine, Ever Ours (SATC)

Hubby got home slightly earlier yesterday so we managed to watch Sex and the City (SATC) last evening after dinner! Gosh, how I missed that show! The movie was fantastic! Of course my companion matters alot too! It's been a loooong time since we last watched a movie in cinemas. haha... We munched on popcorn and the occassional leaning of head is so sweet. A drawback is I need to sit up straight to be totally comfortable. No more slouching cos I need all my strength to pull myself up straight even the slouching. argh.

Although the ending seems like a real ending with Carrie marrying Big... the happily ever after fairytale ending but secretly, I'm hoping there will be a next movie. I was just thinking what could they possibly plot if there's a sequel. Cannot be about Carrie and Big having kids cos it shouldn't be titled SATC then.



Love Letter from Ludwig van Beethoven (that Carrie read in the show while in bed with Big)

Good morning, on July 7

Though still in bed, my thoughts go out to you, my Immortal Beloved, now and then joyfully, then sadly, waiting to learn whether or not fate will hear us -



I can live only wholly with you or not at all -

Yes, I am resolved to wander so long away from you until I can fly to your arms and say that I am really at home with you, and can send my soul enwrapped in you into the land of spirits -

Yes, unhappily it must be so -

You will be the more contained since you know my fidelity to you. No one else can ever possess my heart - never - never -

Oh God, why must one be parted from one whom one so loves.

And yet my life in V is now a wretched life -

Your love makes me at once the happiest and the unhappiest of men -

At my age I need a steady, quiet life - can that be so in our connection?

My angel, I have just been told that the mailcoach goes every day - therefore I must close at once so that you may receive the letter at once -

Be calm, only by a calm consideration of our existence can we achieve our purpose to live together -

Be calm - love me - today - yesterday - what tearful longings for you - you - you - my life - my all - farewell.

Oh continue to love me - never misjudge the most faithful heart of your beloved.

Ever thine
Ever mine
Ever ours

p/s: This is my fav part. Ever Thine, Ever Mine, Ever Ours.....
