2 weeks not login to blog, basically now I've stop working and stay at home till baby arrive...stay at home to rest more and get prepare...also on n off back to office a while, as the my partition office hav been set up finally, back to arrange the computers and my desk..office is slightly bigger than last time..
Went to my 35th weeks check up too, baby is good, head measured 8.8cm and weighted 2.3kg..but my weight drop 0.5kg...anyway doc said no big deal, as long as baby is gaining is ok....i suspect it could b i ate lesser outside food, which is oily and MSG...now everyday mum cook for me and i eat a lot of cereal oats...doc said my baby will pop on 38th week..so counting down i got 3 more weeks to go...probably is after Mothers' Day....can't wait to c my baby boy....
Things almost get ready, now my store room full of baby things...wait to be arrange....mum have start buying all the confinement stuff that i need and i also not forget to go for my last sales shopping..haha..yesterday even went to Isetan member sales...at ladies and cosmetic department can't even breath...too many ppl...we head to gents and baby dept...get a set of pillow and bolster and the bathing rack ....especially bathing rack..hardly to find at baby centre outside...actually when we first saw at outside we not plan to buy, it cost RM69.90, but since got 60% disc so just get it....
now my tummy quite big..when go walk outside like yesterday go for shopping..ppl's eye contact tend to goes to my tummy...i feel not so comfortable la...anyway is normal for ppl to see la...last time i also see preg lady tummy like tat..coz it is big n obvious...i can't walk fast, hardly bend down...and very easy to get tired...now i rest at home i tend to sleep a lot, sometimes can't really sleep at night...just hope baby come faster so that i no need to carry this big tummy...u know when i walk i can't saw my footstep on the floor already...
Congratulation to my cousin bro James Liong and Julia Wee, they finally tied the knot..attended their church wedding last Saturday...
Met the consultant to talk about cord blood collection. After another round of explaination to Brandon, we get clearer about the benefit of the blood, the policy and agreement and payment. We finally sign up with StemLife and receive the blood collection kit. We also received 1 year waive annual fee, meaning that baby age 2 onwards only needs to pay RM250 per year.
Addition point which I dunno was after the blood being process, if the blood contain of bacteria and the quantity of stem cell collected below par, we will get the money back in full…Besides that, I’ve been told that I need to call to inform the sales rep upon my admission to hospital and 2nd call to inform when dilate 7cm, so that the lab assistant are ready to b there to send my blood back to the stem cell lab.
From my own point of view, to me this collection is very costly for first payment (RM2500), but for long term it is very worth to keep. After many days and many points of consideration, we only take it…if financially really cause us problem then we may take the idea off. Anyway I’m so happy to hav it now, as I know the importance of the blood is far higher than u having a high insured life/medical policy. Insurance policy may only cover the cost u spend for illnesses, and (touch wood!) it may not save ur life if it is a critical illness, but this blood is save life. Scientist hav proven that there are many kind of uncured illness can save by stem cells. Currently heart disease and spinal cord injury are the most popular used of stem cell to cure and the list is keep on adding.
Therefore I keep on advice my fren who pregnant to think twice on storing stem cell…life is too fragile now.
Just went to do check up….everything ok…baby aged 34th week plus…growing very fast, between 2 weeks time..he grow 1kg..now weighted 2.2kg (4 pounds 84 ounce)…I also grow 1kg..now weighted 59kg…the nurse started giving me infant milk powder sample.
Now we still considering which stem cell company we want to sign up to collect our baby cord blood. Will arrange consultant for face-to-face enquiry by this week hopefully…
Probably will go for another 2-3 times check up, then I think is time baby arrive!
Share with you here my baby boy. This is the ultra scan print of his face feature during 31st week...this Thursday will go for check up again...my body n leg can now feel the heavy pressure...walk also a bit slow now...finger n leg are easy to get numbness which coz by water retention...body more n more easy to get tired....lately have better sleep thru the night...baby very active moving...sometime may get some uneasy feel when he kick sideway..my hospital bag are almost 90% ready...left the bottle need to sterlised...others than that bed are on the way to reach me end of the month, pillow and bolster haven't buy yet...think got to buy during this or next weekend. i was thinking, aft baby born might not hav much own sweet time to do things i like....sweet sleeping time may cut off 70%, every effort n concerntration will go to the baby...i was told brandon that when baby comes, we no more 2 ppl world la....My mum will end her job by this weekend to help me during my confinement....those old folks so sad of her leaving...and miss her cooking too...before baby comes mum will take care of my mealing and some house things....my house still quite messy need to rearrange some furniture to accomodate my convenience of used, especially the bedroom. I schedule to stop work in next 2 weeks.My office partition still haven't setup yet, now doing the painting n some touch up work...still very noisy and smelly (paint) outside....i think the worker will only do it aft outside work have done. Aft partition setup thats a lot to do also...like network linkage, streamyx setup, and the PDA n invoicing system also need to b upgrade....This Friday will hav a training section on the new system....hopefully the clerk here will handle well of the things...many thing have to start telling her what to do when i'm not around.
