Enjoying my first bath at home on Day 4- 23 December 07.

These are the story books that Mummy and Daddy read to me now when I'm in Mummy's tummy. Usually, these stories are read to me during bedtime (when Mummy and Daddy didn't fall asleep). "A Child's Garden of Verses" was bought in US when Daddy was in San Jose.

Back after 3 Months

It's exactly 3 months since the last blog post. Instead of giving excuses of taking so long to update, I guess I'll just plead guilty of not being "on" enough to diligently update this blog.

Let me see, it's less than 6 weeks to EDD and where are we? The next appointment with Gynae Dr P.C. is next week and much of the stuff we need to get are already borrowed, loaned or bought.

Guess I post this before my notebook runs out of battery and do a checklist in the next post.

Happy Feet...

Dear baby,

Now that everyone here has seen your beautiful 3D scan, here's presenting your feet.

For now, mummy will know when you are kicking or moving your feet too much. Till December, when we get to see you out of mummy's tummy, then you'll have lotsa room to kick and stretch.

In the meantime, you must be nice and gentle to mummy, so daddy will not be scolded by mummy when she gets grouchy from too much movement from you.

Luv,
Daddy & Mummy

Hello everybody!

We visited our gynecologist on the eve of National Day and had a 3D scan taken.

Looks like the little one is counting down to National Day with thumb in the mouth. Sure looks like having a good time.

It's already 20weeks and baby is getting more and more active, and mummy could feel baby stretching and extending hands and legs.

In the report, the doctor had remarked that baby is a girl, weighs approximately 400grams with heartbeat of 136 beats per minute.

Happy National Day, Singapore!

Happy 42th National Day to Singapore!...I guess today is a good day to start a blog dedicated to our baby. My wife, Sandy aka Wendy, is in her 20th week into pregnancy this week.

We'll update more on the development in this blog and hopefully in a decade later, our baby will get to see his/her development over the years and have a feel of the joy and happiness of parenthood.
