Professor Tay says this might be our last check-up and last ultrasound scan with him as Mama & Papa will be seeing you soon. You'll be due soon!! Mama & Papa so excited!! Over the months... Papa & Mama and everyone in the family got Baby so much stuff... from everyone !!!
We got you a playpen for you to play in and sleep in and almost do your daily activities in it other than eating. *laughs* Papa bought you a rather expensive mattress to place in it as your sleeping posture will affect you a lifetime. We look for many places for this mattress as many places no longer provides the mattress of the measurement of the older versions of playpen. What we see now in the shopping malls are new versions which are smaller than the one you'll be sleeping on. Not a very easy thing to do!!!
Papa's 3rd sis(elder), also bought you many clothes... From Hong Kong... so many t-shirts with nice designs from ESPIRIT. She'll buy many more clothes for you when GuGu goes around the world for work. *laughs* Your so lucky you get to wear clothes form around the world... Of course there'll be someday you'll not be able to fit into them and has to give to someone else... But Mama has taken some pictures of them.

Massage Lessons...
On Mama:
Most important parts to apply the stretch mark cream onto will be from around the breast --> tummy --> hip --> thigh. This will be a daily rountine for a mum-to-be in order not to have too much of stretch marks left on your body after pregancy. Baby is very lucky to have Papa massage on you every so often. Usually, Mama will wait till Papa wants to sleep then ask if he can help to apply the cream on Baby. While doing this massage, Papa will tend to speak to Mama & Baby, in this case Baby can also begin to recognise Papa's voice. Whenever, Papa call for Baby while massaging, Mama's will be able to feel your moving trying to response to Papa's call. Not too sure if this is only happening because Mama think too much or is it really Baby's response to Papa??
On Baby:
.... .... .... The steps are yet to be learn by Mama & Papa. Also, we're not able to perform the massage as Baby hasn't come to our world yet. *laughs* Will provide you the following steps when Mama & Papa has come to it.

5-6 month old
Baby... This month would be a very enjoyable month for you. Its Christmas!!! Also, its Crystal YiYi birthday. Usually grandmummy would hold the festive celebration at her house as only her house can fit so many people. *laughs* We would be having steamboat or barbeque at the porch. Mama would always want to arrive as early as possible... To help out or to show face... *smile*
This month Mama's tummy doesn't have much difference as compared to last month. So everyone gave comments.... But Mama & Papa could not be bothered as their words would not matter to me so as long as Baby is growing as per normal as per check-up we have every month. We've exchange of gifts and much fun eating. Mama showed Baby's photo around so everyone knows how is Baby doing inside Mama's tummy.
Tai Po (Great-grandma) says that Mama cannot consume mutton while pregnant as there're some beliefs to it. Papa also agreed with Tai Po, so Mama has to listen to them. Mama look forward to celebrate a few big festive occassions with you when your still within Mama. Maybe there'll be a special feeling which comes from Baby... Mama wonders.

4-5 month old
This month we had the ultrasound scan but no pictures was provided as it was quite similar to the one that was given to Mama & Papa last month. But this time Papa & Mama could hear your heartbeat really loudly. Pounding so quickly like a horse galloping across a big open field... it was much louder than that when we heard at 4month old.
Mama was eating so much and im not getting any fatter than before Mama was pregnant with Baby. So Papa said "Maybe Baby has absorb the vitamins, minerals and other nutrients." Papa was encouraging Mama to eat more meals and more fish and drink more milk. Mama tummy is getting bigger slowly, every month...everyday...every minute...
FYI: Mama do not have morning sickness. Baby is behaving very well.

3 month old
Baby... this month your about 3 months old. Papa & Mama look forward to see you during the ultrasound scan. Here... Papa & Mama can see how big Baby has grown and whether you have any defects on your body. Prof Tay measured your spine length and the height of your nose bone to see if baby could have any disorder. And to ensure the answer provided by the ultrasound scan is ABSOLUTELY RIGHT we need to take a blood test... *Ahhhh.... Run!!!* This was Mama's 1st thought... Hahaha....
This time, during our check-up, Papa & Mama have to do a blood test to check and ensure if your chance of contracting a disorder is there or not and how much of a chance will you contract a disorder. You know what Mama is afraid most... JABS for INJECTIONS or BLOOD TEST. Just when the nurse called out for Mama's name, i almost feel like running away and i keep very quiet and like being nailed to the ground and seat that i can't move. Then, Papa shook me to senses while i move very slowly towards the room telling myself that it'll be over very quickly but when i sat down, when the nurse had tied my arms to look for the vein distinctively without having to poke wrongly... when just before she could poke the needle into me... i suddenly think it'll be better if Papa could be beside me and to give Mama the courage to complete the process, so i shouted "STOP! Can you please get my husband to come in? I want him to come in, is it ok? Thanks." *laughs* Papa came in and said " Useless. Like this also scare. What will you do when you give birth?" - in Chinese. So Mama replied "That point of time you'll be with me, i will not be so scare and i won't be able to see the blood as im lying down... Its usually like that in shows." *laughs*
In fact, you can always refer back to your photo album to see all the pictures Mama has mentioned. You can find all those pictures...

2nd Post: For En En
Baby... This is the 1st check-up at KK Hospital with a female doctor (But Mama forgot her name). She was the one that predicted you will be born on the 28 Feb 07. In her room, Mama can see the device to hear the foetus heartbeat and the ultrasound scan device. She also inform us that based on the picture provided from the ultrasound scan, baby is only about 3months old. At this time, Papa & Mama could only see your little limbs as they're not fully grown. Baby has performed well at the ultrasound scan letting us see you for the very 1st time.
Do you know Mama & Papa look forward to every check-up with the gynaecologist to know how is baby getting on in Mama's womb?? Papa would always wait patiently with Mama for our turn to see the doctor-in-charge and often he'll fall asleep.
FYI: Papa has never miss any appointment for the check-up on Baby & Mama.
Baby is so lucky hor...!!

Baby... This is the name Papa & Mama address you since the day Papa & Mama knows you exist in this world. Knowing Baby exist was when Baby is about 15mth old... Of course Papa & Mama use the pregnancy kit to check and confirm.

To see Papa, Mama, paternal family members and maternal family members. Do you know your 1st Gu Zhang, Ah Yang, was the very 1st person to know En En exist and he encourage Papa and Mama alot and kept telling us not to give up and persuade everyone in this whole big family?? Very supportive horr?? *smiles*
EN EN: You must really thank your 1st Gu Zhang.
