31 weeks

7 weeks more before week 38.
9 weeks more before week 40.

Not sure when you're gonna greet momma & dada though. (:

Momma's excited and scared at the same time. Of the uncertainty towards labor. But I know dada will be with us through it all. He'll be there when you pop and let out your first cry.

Time flies.

It felt just like yesterday when Momma first found out she's pregnant. And then soon, you're helping us complete the family.

I love you my baby love.

Dada and his little sunshine joy

Yesterday, momma saw dada reading a guide book for first time dads. Dada is so sweet isn't he? 

I'm so glad that he is preparing himself for your arrival and I know you two will bond right away. (: 

30 Weeks

Our little silly pie, you're flipped around, head down and legs up now. No wonder dada and momma feel your prominent kicks above the navel area.

Sometimes momma feels you tickling her with your fingers, you cheeky little boy.

Quite disappointed though we can't catch you on 3D since Dr. Ang said you weren't in a good position for capturing.

Nonetheless, momma's super glad to see your quick beating heartbeats. It shows your healthy.

Dada and Momma love you.

Our smart boy

you were so adorable last evening. dada asked you to kick and you did. thrice! what a smart boy you are.

dada and momma's gonna see you on the ultrasound screen tomorrow. i'm so excited! i hope you are too my precious little pie.

new bedroom color perhaps?

Daddy asked what color should he re-paint the bedroom. He thinks the existing grey shade is not ideal for you. Mommy replied "how about blue & brown?"

What do you think about it, my silly pie?

Daddy + Mommy = Kayleb

Are you excited that daddy bought you a matching checkered shirt & khaki pants from H&M? you'll definitely look like dada on your baby shower. (:

You have your own closet now. And when daddy's free, he'll help you fix up your cot too. Perhaps, in the coming weekends.

So glad daddy caught a glimpse of you being active in the middle of the night. And you silly pie reacted to daddy's light shining. Mommy adores how you two bond better nowadays.

And mommy thinks you are adorable when daddy teased you on Saturday morning by pressing on mommy's tummy, then you reacted by giving daddy a kick. hurhur

I know, daddy sometimes can be naughty too.

I love you my precious little one. Can't wait to see you on the 3D machine again on the 22nd! (:

so energetic

you are so active lately, mommy can see you move.
very adorable.

love it when daddy kisses mommy's belly, and i know you love it too. (:

That's daddy & Mommy with you in my tummy

daddy and mommy decided to call you Kayleb for the time being. Until we manage to find you a better name. And daddy wants the fortune teller to decide if you're Chinese name is okay.

Grandpa named you "文翰".

My active little sunshine bundle of joy, for the time being your name is Kayleb Chng Wen Han 庄文翰。

Daddy & Mommy loves you. (:

25 weeks old

My little sunshine joy, you are 25 weeks old today.

Mommy and Daddy can't wait to see you when you're ready to pop at 40weeks. (: We love you so very much.  And my smart little boy, I guess you know Mommy & Daddy are really busy lately for the big day on 9th Oct. Bear with us ok?

You've been so active lately. Gave mommy such a hard kick earlier, it was so visibly clear. (: My silly little pie. Mommy loves it when you are moving, it lets me know you are doing okay. Continue being a good boy okay?

I love you.

ps: you weighed 748g last week, when we saw Dr. Ang. Unbelievable because an average fetal weight at week 24 is about 600g. Momma's so proud of you. Growing strong and big. (:

hello there.

Hello there my baby, you've been dancing around and kicking momma since I've got into the office. Are you excited that momma's back to work?

I'm so sorry that momma's got a bad tummy lately. But momma will keep eating proper meals so the nutrients will get to you too!

We'll be heading to Dr. Ang's clinic after work today okay? We need to get you your vitamins so you can grow big and strong.

Can't wait to see you on the ultrasound screen on the 9th. Momma and daddy loves you so very much.

Detailed Scan at 20weeks

Was really excited to see the little one yesterday.
Is it normal for a mommy-to-be to worry alot about the baby's health?

Can't wait till the next appointment to see you again.

And hopefully daddy can come along too. (:

short message to my little one.

to my little one "daddy's home. and we'll see him very soon, I know you miss his voice. he'll be able to look at you clearly come Wednesday when you pop up on the ultrasound screen."

more involvement lately

I'm still feeling exhausted everyday.
They say it's because the body is using a lot of energy for the baby's growth.

He kissed my tummy again last night.
I love it when he does that, it's like telling the little one he loves him.
He is also more involved - thinking of rearrangement of furniture, getting a cot, naming the baby etc...

I truly feel blessed having him around.
And I gotta thank God for making all these possible.
I also have to thank him for being such a wonderful father-to-be.

He'll be back in camp next week. The little one and I are going to miss him alot.
We'll cherish the entire week with him before he goes away.

The little one says he loves daddy very much. (:

A very lovely boyfriend and father to be

Hunz bought me the pregnancy pillow last night.
He said I'd need it even more as the belly grows larger.
He's really a sweetie pie and I'm more blessed than ever.

While shopping last evening, he suddenly said he thought of a name for the little one.
One with 'A' and 'K' in it - Jake.

17 weeks

The little one is 11.4cm long (head to bottom).
The doctor said I've got low lying placenta and might need a cesarean. It's still early to decide though, so I've got to visit him a couple more occasions.

The tummy's getting tighter but these two nights have been moderately well. I've been talking to the little one before bed, asking him to allow me some good night's rest so I can last the day at work. He's a really good boy.

I also love how hunz feels or rubs my tummy. Like, he's feeling for the little one. I hope I'll be able to let him feel the little one when he starts kicking or protruding.

16 weeks

I have so much difficulty sleeping at night.

The tummy feels really awkward - I can't explain how weird.

I get awaken to run toilet trips which gets really disruptive.

I can't sit in a single position for more than 10 mins while at work.

My shoulders, lower back and calves are aching like crap.

My nose and sinuses are constantly blocked, I barely can breathe.

The share of food intake has reduced because I constantly feel bloated.

I need a pregnancy pillow and I'm in awful need for a massage. Like a plea, like a beg. Goodness.

God's blessing.

The job interview hunz went last week offered him a position with a very decent salary.

I'm very happy for him.

God's a brilliant watcher, undeniably. Thank you Big Guy!

The magical moment

Hunz grabbed my tummy and planted a kiss.
Nobody will ever know how magical that moment was for the three of us.

I felt so touched I almost cried.

I've been carefully threading around the pregnancy topic.
Carefully making sure I don't say or do things that will add on the stress he already has.

His action caught me pleasantly surprised.
I know the little one is feeling blessed too. Because daddy loves him.

Hunz' graduation

Attended hunz' graduation today.

Was so proud of him when he walked the stage to receive his scroll.

The end of college life marks the beginning of another milestone in life.

I'm so glad he allowed me to be part of these important times.

We celebrated further by watching Transformers in the night.

I hope he enjoyed the movie and I love making him feel happy.
