4th Prenatal class..

Last Sat, woke up at 6am, to go with Mr to register for his Subaru Challenge, my heart feels so heavy. I still remember the night before, thinking if he entered the challenge, I will be alone for days and suddenly I wanna cry, but lucky Mr didn't notice. But I also don't want Mr to regret if I told him I didn't want him to go, so I kept quiet and wish him Good Luck. Sat morning, I kept having the idea of going there late and register late, queue up late, so he will be behind the queue, though it is very bad of me, but I thought, I cannot never change fate, even if he is fated to get in, no matter where he queue, he will get in. So I gave up the thought and went along with FATE.

We reached there at 7.10am, of cos there was already long queue for registration, but funny thing was when we queued, I still can joke with Mr and laughed.. Looking around if I am the only preggie lining up with husband. Keke.. Queuing for an hour plus, was his turn, I didn't want to queue with him when he reached nearer the counter cos there are cameras everywhere, so I sat at one corner.. hehe.. we went to buy a little breakfast and sat at the chairs outside Taka by the road and wait for 9.30am for them to choose the ball to decide their fate if they are eligible. 9.30am came and Mr saw everyone was moving to queue so he ran there, and I continue to sit here, thinking if I should go infront of the stage to see if he picked the ball, but I chose to sit here and wait for him to bring me the news, cos I was scared.. Nearing his turn he was 125th person to go up, I felt a strong sense that he will get in, as 125th out of 200th is quite a high chance, I already ready to send SMS to Mat to tell her I am leaving Taka alone... I saw Mr go up the stage through a hole from where I sat. And I heard "YOU GOT IN, No. 166" I thought OH, He got in. Then who knows, he called me and said he didn't get in, and I saw him walking out. I couldn't believe and I tot he lied. But truely, he didn't. I felt a moment of Happiness! But I can see he quite sad. But he also told me he go up stage also anyhow choose a ball and had mixed feelings again. But whatever it is, I am not alone! And I don't need to worry about him getting sick or whatever if he gets in! Hurray! But he told me next yr he gonna try again and I cannot follow so he can concentrate on getting the ball, without him worrying I leaving alone back home. :(


Went to see Dr Tan first before going for the class.. Phew! I gained only 1.1 kg.. I was super happy lo, cos Mr don't believe I ate very little nowadays and kept saying he got feeling I will shoot up to 60Kg. But now I was only 56.7Kg. Yay! And my baby surprisingly shot up to 2.39Kg. Good job baby! Everything was fine, except next friday have to do the last ultrasound scan for placenta location and foetal growth to see if she is growing fine and if the brain cyst in her has gone away. The only shocking news I heard from Dr Tan was my placenta previously was low-lying, and this checkup was improving a little and she said might change to a higher position soon, my god! If it doesn't move, means I have to go for C-section! :(

Went for the prenatal class, mentioned in the last blog, Mrs Wong is not here to teach but her Nurse Chong. Saw her face, like not so friendly and jokable like Mrs Wong type. But surprisingly the time passed quite fast, on watching a video how to bathe a baby, breastfeeding. And also hands-on on how to bathe a baby using a toy, and also folding the napkins. I went up to do the hands-on as well quite fun with toy but I doubt it won't be so easy with a real-life baby. :( but I will try.

After the lessons, was touring to the labour ward and observation ward. Observation ward was to admit there in early stage before pushing you to the labour ward. The labour ward was like a small room, with a bed for the mothers, and a sofa seat for daddies, a TV, a radio, a baby "tray", many cabinets where things are stored, and a operation light for stitching. Nurse Chong went through every details with us, what equipment when to use.. The more she said, the more I felt my legs wobbly. I told Mr when we are out of the ward, he also agreed she like scarying us.. The only thing I really afraid is the stitching.. :( Wanna cry already..

Now I have left 1 month to go before I go into labour.. The more I tot of it, the more scary it is.. It was like she has been inside me for 7months plus, and time really flies and very soon she will be out into this world.. Many things ran through my mind, the labour pains, the stitching, will I be a good mummy? So many things... I hope everything will be fine and goes smoothly when she is out.. Who knows, after she is out, I would miss her kicking in my tummy.. keke :)
