Last gynae checkup was on 22 April 2014. Baby now weighs 2.5kg. Gynae commented that baby is a little on the small side. The last checkup, baby weighed 2.3kg at 34 weeks. It got BK and me worried for quite a bit.
I was then sent for CGT test to monitor baby's heartbeat & fetal movement. Apparently, it was a routine test but we were not aware and thought that it was linked to baby's weight. I was made to lie in bed for an hour, strapped to a machine which tracked baby's heartbeat and I had to press a button whenever I felt baby's movement. After the test, the nurse called our gynae and we were allowed to return home. The nurse told me I was also having mild contractions but I could not feel a thing.
We went to buy durians to eat as many told us it will contribute to baby's weight. LoL. Next checkup is on 29 April 2014 and hopefully, baby will be beefed up more.:) I also started to take more protein in the hope that it will help baby to gain some weight.
My feet is also getting very swollen and I can't fit into all my shoes and had to get a new pair of Birkenstock to last me the last few weeks of pregnancy!
Why am I gaining so much compared to the baby :( sacrifices of a mum as long as baby J is good, healthy & happy.
I am also getting into nestling mode. I keep washing, wiping and preparing for baby's arrival. Hopefully baby arrives close or on due date. 11 May 2014. #mother's day!
Baby's temp room at my MIL's house is also setup. We have also cleaned up the car seat, set up the steriliser etc. Almost there. :)
