Preggie @ 16 weeks!

I'm now 16 weeks and 5 days preggie!

Been feeling good, with more energy to do more activities! Of course I try not to over exert myself and make sure I take naps before going out. 

Just last week, I was a little worried for baby because I wasn't really showing. Amazingly, this week my belly just popped out! Looks like baby's growth spurt is kicking in like what the babycenter app said. I love touching my belly now... Just feels so much fuller. 

I haven't felt any strong movements just yet! Sometimes, when I stay really still, I can feel flutters but I'm really not sure if its gas or baby moving! So hard to tell! 

So excited about the weeks to come! Supposedly, baby right now is the size of an avocado. So cute!

A livelier weekend.

Hello!

Yes I finally managed to muster a bit more energy to write a post. Gotta start my blogging again! 

I'm now into my second trimester so my energy's slowly coming back! Yayness! I can finally walk a bit more and go out =D

I did quite a bit this weekend. Yesterday, I ate brekkie with mum at the market (it's been sooo long) and spent the afternoon singing karaoke with mum and sis! It was nice to be able to have fun and sing my lungs out. Of course I couldn't sing as much as before, but it's good enough for me! 

And today, the chen-ies had lunch at cherry garden @ marina oriental! Atas dim sum buffet to pre-celebrate mum's birthday! My idea =D food was sooo awesome.  We kinda over stuffed ourselves with dessert! Glad mum enjoyed the place whee! 

We stopped by Mothercare to grab some maternity pants for me cause I just can't wear my bottoms anymore! -.- it was fun picking out some stuff. Surprisingly, the clothes aren't all that bad. I managed to get three pairs that will hopefully last me throughout! 

I'm currently listening to The Piano Guys on YouTube. Oh man they rock! Gonna let baby listen to them! Good to expose her early to great music. Who knows, she might be one a musician next time =D

Preggie @ 15 weeks!

I'm 15 weeks and 3 days preggie today!

We had our regular appointment with Dr Heng this afternoon and everything was looking good! My blood test and Down syndrome test showed that baby has 1/4000 risk, which is low and normal range. So happy baby's okay! 

And... *drumroll* we found out baby's gender! =D based on the scan, baby's gonna be our lil girl! *excited* My gut feeling's been telling me baby's a girl and its true! And just 2 days ago, Gerald dreamt that we were gonna have a girl too so we were pretty much convinced of the high chances anyways hehe. 

Whilst Gerald seems a bit bummed out that he can't train our kid to be a star soccer player anymore (haha), I know he's still happy inside! Whatever it is, we'll love baby just the same ❤.

Oh and Dr Heng said that my minimal weight gain of 0.5kg is okay. Even though my baby bump is not really visible, baby is growing perfectly well and her size's fine! Guess she's just well hidden so my baby bumps not obvious. 

Wheeeee!

Here's a pic of my baby bump at 15 weeks!
