1 John 5:14-15

This is the confidence that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us - whatever we ask - we know that we have what we asked of Him. (",)

Got the excitement!

Can gradually feel the excitement of being a mummy real soon last sunday,28 dec when we went to Baby Hypermart super store to look around for baby stroller.

Set our eyes on Quinny buzz at the moment, and will explore other brands like Aprica and Combi later.

My parents are more excited than us as they have bought glass bottles, bath towel wrap, hat, mittens and booties etc for the little boy.

I took out the baby carrier that a sister in Christ has blessed us with and its fun exploring the chair hehe.. It can recline and can be a rocker..

And today i started my first course of premium birds nest intake that miss chan and miss kwek has bought for my birthday present.Listening to miss chan's advice of taking the birds nest everyday instead of once a week.

It struck me that Johanan is arriving in 4 weeks time when Caleb wanted to put the rocker on the sofa in the living room and getting my mother in law to start washing baby's clothes.

She insisted must use Kodomo' baby laundry detergent for baby.

At the supermarket, i saw 3 prices for baby laundry detergent, $11 plus, $13 plus and $17.80 for 3 different brands.

My heart ached at how expensive the kodomo laundry detergent is and wanted to get the cheapest one at $11 plus and was contemplating to get the inhouse baby laundry detergent!

I grabbed kodomo's laundry detergent after hearing the Lord's spoke to me this :'You have always wanted and get the best things in life that I have given you generously all these years.Why are you so stingy towards your own son?'

Short snippets of my extravagant spending on myself flashed across my mind and my mind is renewed. I want the best and give my son just like what God wanted and have been giving me.

Johanan is 33.5 weeks

Praise the Lord! We went to the gynae this morning and was told that Johanan's head is at the bottom & weighs about 2.5kg. And my weight is normal hehehe

His head is the size of a 35 weeks fetus currently and chances are he, might be a new year baby.

We have seen his thigh bone, his head, his back...all of which are developing healthily.

Mummy have been feeding him with all the good food with all the Christmas parties & gatherings.

Johanan is 33.5 weeks

Johanan is 31 weeks

Our little prince is very very active at night...

He will move alot more when he hears his daddy voice and there were times that he even did the Johanan wave when Caleb was laughing or talking! can see my belly moving in a wave like manner

Can feel his head emerging when he knows that daddy is somewhere near him and have responded greatly to Caleb's touch when he placed his hand on my belly... hehe

Johanan is 30 weeks

Went to the Gynae on 29 Nov 08.

As my weight have maintained over the past 4 weeks, there is no need for me to do gestation diabetes test! Praise God!!

And we just realised that Johanan is 30 weeks old!

He is now 1.5 kg and his developmental growth is average. He was in a breech position, daddy & mummy knows that God will perform a miracle on this beloved boy, He will cause Johanan's head will turn when he is due for delivery. Amen!

Today we went for ante natal class on massage & relaxation exercises. Its time for me to start doing the exercises & stretching exercise to prepare for our darling's arrival.

Such ante natal classes have prepared to be fathers & mothers on what to expect during pregnancy & delivery.

And we are still learning... Our children are our best "teachers" in bringing them up.

Come to think of it, its time for us to draw up a list of items that our boy needs as friends have been asking us what we need. So far we have:
  • rocker cum seat
  • play pen
  • baby clothes
  • changing table with drawers (to be collected from Marcus' house)
  • silk blanket
Its high time to do homework!

Johanan is 29 weeks!

We went to gynae yesterday. Our little boy is now 29 weeks.

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 28 weeks!

Our precious little one is now 28 weeks!

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.
