Its life as usual for the moment

Felin and I have been busy with work that we somehow let time passed without the anxieties for the moment. We went for our weekly Antenatal classes at NUH where we learned Physiotheraphy for Labour last week. There was this couple who are also expecting 2 baby boys and the wife is smaller in statue and tummy bigger than Felin.

During a meeting last week with Susan and Andy, they shared about the class they attended at http://1st60days.com and gave rave reviews about it. I asked Felin to check out the course and see if we can arrange to attend too.

We got our 2nd Combi Carseat last Saturday and happy about the hazelnut colour that matches our car best. The cloth are a bit worn out but I think its still good to use for the next 2-3 years. The size is perfect and Felin or our future domestic worker is definitely able to squeeze in between the seats. Its time to learn how to secure the seats.



We went to Pooi Kuan's baby shower on Saturday and I have to say that her son is truly adorable. His name is Joel and will be similar to our babies Joshua and Josiah. There are a lot of Baby "J"s lately. He did not cry a single time throughout the 3-4 hours we spent at the function room. He allows everyone to carry him and is cool about it. He got nice features and I'm sure he will grow up really handsome. Still hoping they will consider getting the insurance plans through me soon.


This week is also an interesting week where another 3 friends delivered their babies. There are some level of admiration at times on how I wish my babies will be like this or that and some degree of anxiety if the boys will be healthy or hyper active, etc... but I supposed that I shouldn't make any comparison and regardless how they are, they are still my babies.

As for Felin, she is having difficulty sleeping at night. When she sleeps by her side, the baby below will tend to kick her and when she lies on her back, the weight of the babies make her uncomfortable. Her sleep are also very light and she wake up at the slightest noise. This makes her tired and caught a flu last week. She went back Malaysia during the Deepavali holiday after our checkup on Tues and had a nice long rest. Her tummy is quite big as if she is ready to give birth anytime. We are contemplating if she should get complete bed rest by week 34 or 35.

Our checkup show that everything been fine and we will have a detailed 3rd Trimester scan on 4th Nov. It will be nearly 29th weeks by then. Can't wait to see the babies via the detailed scan. I sometimes are not able to figure what Dr Su is scanning lately as the babies are getting bigger. The most important thing during all these checkups is probably to hear their heartbeats.


As for today, Justina just passed me her Baby Bathing mat, a diaper changing station and a playpen. Faith is passing me her Baby feeding pillow and Christine are passing me her son's clothings. There are so many people blessing us with these items and I think by the time come, it will be our turn to bless others. Faith and Christine are both parents of twins and I should ask Felin to accompany me to meet them to pass some tips to us.
