As my weight remains constant since the last visit, i do not have to take the gestation diabetes test.
Johanan's development is good. He is currently in a breech position which is not a cause of worry cos we know that his head will turn facing down when he is due for delivery.
He is about 1.5 kg now, he has gained 0.6 kg since the last visit. The level of fats in his body is average.
We will be seeing gynae in 3 weeks time..
Johanan is very active at night, more active when he hears daddy's voice, whether daddy is talking to him or not (he moves when daddy is talking on the phone! Haha!)
He also moves when daddy puts his hand on mummy' belly, think daddy's palm is warmer and he is more responsive.
I have seen him move only once when i was in office. Can see his little finger pushing against my belly wall and moves for a distance of 1cm then stopped.
He moves at his own free will and remains motionless when mummy was staring at her belly, getting ready video to record and asked him to move (encore?).
And when mummy looked somewhere else, he moves again. Hehe
We will be going to gynae for another check on his progress this saturday.
This message took place in January 2001. Pastor Prince mentioned that times of recession is times of progression for believers.
Amen to that!
Flip the newspapers and almost every page got screaming headlines of how countries, companies, families were badly affected by the economy downturn.
What we need is good news, good news of the gospel, good news of miracles, good news of edifying testimonies.
Good news can be found in His Word, His love letters to us which speaks into our lives in all seasons of our life.
Walking in Jesus love is our very first love, wanting to know more about Him and reading His love letters to us over and over again.
And it is only His love that fills and lifts us so high up that the problems that once seem so big and ugly to us now seem so small, like an ant that cannot be seen as it is now part of the scenary over shadowed by beautiful flowers and trees that God have marvelously created that we failed to notice, appreciate and enjoy its beauty as we have been focusing on our problems all the time.
Situations will turnaround as Jesus' perfect love have casted all fear out of our lives.
I blogged myself happy!
The facilitator gone through some relaxation exercises and breathing techniques with the class. Its amazing to see how some to be fathers are more involved by discussing with their spouse their experience and how to improve breathing techniques while other passive husbands just passively sat there and observe how their spouse are doing and ensure their wife did the right thing with little or no encouragement.
Some used encouraging words while others used words like 'you should have done this or tat' or simply, 'do this or that'
I think its the upbringing and the degree of bonding between spouse that differentiates the high level of spouse support even in mock breathing techniques exercises like this morning.
Some guys would give their spouse an encouraging touch while most will just sit there and cross their arms with a 'do me, i am here for the sake of being here, when do i get out of here!' attitude.
Spousal support is really important at all times.
