宝贝2: 2nd Trimester begins....

This week marks the start of 宝贝2's 2nd trimester. This is also a critical milestone as it means 宝贝2 has achieved stability. Well, this coming friday, I will get to see 宝贝2 on scan and looking forward to that... however, I am feeling jittery over the blood test this friday too. Gosh, I am starting to freak out now when I am typing... b..l...o...o...d.... t...e...s...t!

I will also be bringing Keira along as she will be getting her 15-month jap at Dr Ngiam's clinic. Hope Keira will be focused to catch 宝贝2 on scan this friday coz the last scan, Keira was so engrossed with the weighing machine than looking at the monitor. *sigh* ...

Hmmm, wonder if I'll be lucky to see 宝贝2 gender this friday.. hmmm... in some pregnancies, Dr can tell if bb's a boy even at 11 weeks.... for girl, they probably can't be too sure until after 16 weeks... that's what I read from magazine. So.. let's see....
So, am I hoping for a boy or girl with 宝贝2? Well, if 宝贝2's a boy, it'll be nice... even if 宝贝2 is a girl, I'll be equally happy. There's just so much to buy and explore for girls.... love that! The dolling up part is just so enriching! haha...

This time round, I don't think I will opt for a 4D scan at 24 weeks. Reason being, it's expensive and the 4D scan does not turn out good if there are so much "tissues" covering bb's face - and this was exactly what happened with Keira's 4D scan the last time. I think it was like an extra $200-$300 (can't recall), and I was a little taunted with the 4D scan as Keira looked like she had uneven patches on her face!!! Scared the hell out of me then! I remembered I was "secretly" praying that Keira will turn out "nicely" at birth.. :-p
... and she did... haha... smooth skin and great features! ... and I always tell my hubby... this is perhaps the wonder of 马表燕窝。:-p (or am I just finding excuse to pamper myself with bird's nest????) ... haha...

So this time around... it's going to be 马表燕窝 for 宝贝2 too.
