38.6 weeks...

Went for my weekly checkup again....each time I wonder if I'll see my gynae at the clinic...or at the DELIVERY suite? Anyway...did all the routine tests as usual..
Spent a little more time doing CTG today as Tyler was moving about too much...and the heartbeat lost contact...naughty lil fellar...
Tyler's about 2.66kg today....Dr Chee checked my cervix and it's only about 1 cm dilated..still not ready she said...and no regular contractions either...
Guess it won't be anytime soon.....think Tyler is STILL too happy and contented in there...heh...
Well...we'll jus continue with this waiting game...till he's all ready to come into this world!
Guess I'm all ready....bag is already in Kenny's car...so far the delivery stories I've heard lately have been quite comforting...epidural seems to be rather effective...guess I'll be taking that...just waiting for D day to finally arrive...

2 days to 38 weeks....

Went for my checkup yesterday....did routine checks like urine test, measurement of my weight (shan't disclose that...) and blood pressure...
Then went for the half and hour CTG check....to monitor baby's heartbeat and to check for contractions...
Didn't have any regular contractions yet....Then went for ultra sound to check water bag level and check baby's weight..
Dr JJ Chee did a check and said that my cervix was not dilated yet....seems like Tyler is still happy and contented inside....
Tyler's around 2.5 kg....Dr Chee said it's 'smallish' but still ok....hmmm...guess the durians I have been eating didn't have much effect..heh...
Got a message from Mart this morning...who's 4 days ahead of me. She was already in the delivery suite....Wonder when's my turn?
