Antenatal Classes

Dear denson,

Time flies, daddy and mummy has attended a total of 3 sessions at Mt Alvernia Hospital, the latest, involving breathing techniques and preparing for the delivery was one of the most interesting one.. with less than 2 months to your arrival, we are all very excited!

daddy has a couple more things to prepare for you but daddy has been quite slow in getting them done.. you must be a good boy and don't kick mummy when she's trying to sleep at night ok

love,

daddy

Baby is a good boy last nite..

Baby knows that mummy is going to do a last min presentation the next morning.. he didnt disturb mummy at nite and let mummy rest enough to recuperate for the next day..

baby is so sweet to mummy..

sorry, mummy always have to starve u for awhile to wait for daddy for dinner...

mummy loves baby for being such a sweet boi.. baby kicking so hard cos he is hungry, but when mummy tells baby to wait for awhile cos daddy is not back yet, he simply dont kick anymore.. can feel baby was settling down and waiting.. after half an hr, he starts kickin again, mummy sayang sayang him and ask him to wait for awhile again, he miraclely stops kicking..

mummy loves sweet baby...

mummy will try not to starve u too much k.. otherwise u become a glutton in future... :)

Mummy n daddy are married for 3yrs n 4days ler..

3yrs n 4days ago, mummy n daddy is preparing for their big day at Carlton Hotel..

It was daddy's birthday too..

Mummy cant rmb what happen during the 1st yr anniversary.. haha..

2nd anniversary in yr 08, daddy brot mummy to Batam.. we had a nite stay at Batam.. Daddy was busy studyin the whole year in 08.. daddy n mummy oso tried out the all-time favourite massage in Batam..

this yr, mummy carries baby along for our celebration.. not exactly a big celebration cos daddy has been busy w work n looking after mummy.. we had our massage again.. this time a pre-natal massage for mummy, and daddy had the traditional Javanese massage.. mummy n daddy had to rush to attend antenatal class at Mount Alvernia too.. didnt cut any cake but lots of kissses n hugges for daddy..

tis yr daddy gets to celebrate his birthday w mummy's close friends.. auntie Deniece n auntie Jennifer.. they are all June babies...

Lookin back, when daddy n mummy started their life together on 20.06.2006..

Baby Denson as at 31wks 4days

Daddy n Mummy just saw Denson at Dr Michele's clinic..

Baby too big to be seen as a whole thru Dr Michele's ultrasound machine.. we managed to see denson's head from the bottom of mummy's belly.. which means baby denson has oredi turned down, and his usual movements near mummy's ribs are his buttock n legs.. from denson's measurements of his head n tummy, denson could be arriving earlier, the ultrasound machine calculated 17 Aug.. but later on mummy saw the measurement on denson's thigh bone estimate EDD to be 07 Sep.. huge difference wor... anyway Dr Michele mentioned that she will induce mummy if Denson has not shown any sign of coming out by 20 Aug..

no scan pix this time round.. cos cant see baby much ler.. as usual Dr Michele shown us Denson's heartbeat thru the machine..

The last checkup Denson was slightly underweight weighing only 900g at week 27plus... but mummy put on 9kg.. today mummy is so glad to noe that baby Denson has catch up w his weight.. he is now 1.7kg almost double the previous weighing.. and mummy has oredi put on 11.5kg.. mummy has to control on sweet stuffs especially durian, fried stuffs and unhealthy food..

Dr Michele's rough estimate of Denson's birth weight is 3.7kg.. daddy was 3.8kg.. OMG.. mummy was less than 3kg only..

Daddy's colleague, auntie Novia passed a big bag of clothes to daddy today.. alot of rompers and booties.. there is long sleeve, long pants, short sleeve and shorts too.. and oso the musical cot mobile.. mummy always wanted to get one but she has not decide which one yet cos all looks so nice..

daddy and mummy oso bot Denson a small pillow yesterday.. Daddy and mummy brot gong gong n po po to Singapore flyer yesterday cos ytd was Father's Day.. next yr Denson will celebrate Father's Day w Daddy oso k..

little pressie from Auntie Kate

Yesterday Mummy had lunch w Auntie Kate..

Auntie Kate is mummy and daddy's poly classmate.. in fact groupmate.. she is one of my closest friend from poly..

Auntie Kate got a nappy kit for baby Denson.. it is for travel use.. mummy can laid the nappy kit on any surface and let baby Denson lie down to change nappy.. useful especially mummy n daddy gonna bring Denson to taiwan in March.. can use till Denson is 2,3 yrs old oso.. Just hope baby Denson can be good boi n lie down for mummy to change ur nappy..

14June Buys

Made a trip to Toa Payoh to search for more things to buy for Denson..

Somehow the aircon in toa payoh seems to be lacking.. even the Kiddy Palace air-conditioning was severely lacking.. but oh well, we still bought things for denson:

1. Avent Warmer/Cooler Bag

2. Cotton Buds
3. Powder Container

4. Shorts/Pants (3pcs)

5. Mittens and Botties

Mummy getting so excited..

Joshua and Janelle will be arriving in late July.. Their EDD are supposed to be few days b4 Denson.. bcos they are twins, Auntie Joanne will be very xin ku to carry them around till full term, usually twins will pop sooner than usual oso...

waiting to see Kor Kor Joshua and Jie Jie Janelle in August then~

Mummy planned to rest by 01 Aug.. Mummy got some annual leave to clear from last yr.. so will take a rest earlier, hoping Denson will arrives in Mummy and Daddy's arms sooner than expected..

then it will be less than 71 days to go..

Mummy did an estimate, she will have about 33 working days before she starts her rest..

Mummy suddenly feels so heavy this morning.. Mummy's tummy was so tight this morning as mummy had to attend a discussion/meeting standing for 30mins.. mummy was almost using her 1 hand to hold on to Denson while she toks...

Was reading so much in the forum lately.. Some aunties who are supposed to pop in July has start popping in June.. wow... Got 1 auntie say once 1 start to pop, the rest will pop like popcorn.. so funies..

No more aircon..

Initially was Yang 小叔 who proposed the idea of installing aircon for all the 3 rooms in the house.. he proposed for a 50-50 sharing for Mummy and Daddy's room but now he backed out ler.. First he worried about how to save $500 to co-share the aircon, now he say he is still young no money to contribute..

well, mummy's point if she n daddy have to pay $1000 for the aircon and contribute more for the utilities bill (as Grandma's main worry for installing aircon, and Yang 小叔 highlighted to Daddy and Mummy oso).

Mummy tinks not worthwhile the spending when Mummy n Daddy will at most be using the aircon for half a yr and we gonna hav our own aircons.. system 4, even the living room will be installed w aircon..

Grandpa strongly highlighted Mummy canot use aircon during her confinement, then 1 mth is out.. then wat's the point man..!!

Yang 小叔 will be the main person who gained from the whole proposal..

so NO WAY.. Mummy will bear w the hot weather n continue w her 3 fans..

Even if we installed the aircon, contribute additional for utilities, when Daddy, Mummy and Denson move out, is Daddy and Mummy still expected to maintain the contribution...???

Mummy rather save the aircon money and the additional contribution to buy more things for Denson..

Denson is everything to Mummy now.. (."(",)

Busy 06/06

What a busy 6 June.. daddy and mummy went over to Yee-po's place on saturday to wait for the Philips TV delivery... daddy was told that the TV will reach between 2pm-4pm but there was some problem and the person called and told daddy that it will be between 5pm-6pm.. grandma and uncle yang went for a swim and steambath while daddy and mummy stayed upstairs to help Yee-po to figure out her sound system..

then daddy went out with yee-po to get katong laska for everyone, daddy bought nasi lemak for uncle yang, but somehow, daddy managed to lose the nasi lemak without knowing when.. daddy must be more careful next time.. 

and so, the TV finally arrived at 5.30pm is now safely stored at yee-poh's place.. daddy was relieved that yee-poh agreed to lend her place to store the TV, next time daddy, mummy and denson will have 42inch LCD TV to watch ok?

yee-poh commented that daddy was too nice to the delivery people.. that's why they delay the delivery and take daddy for granted.. daddy feels that its no point getting angry and all he wants is to settle the thing, no point scolding the delivery people if it doesn't help things, only more people will be upset.. so why not just keep everyone happy and lower expectations.. but dadddy is sorry was wasting everyone time to wait for the delivery..

in the evening, yee-po was so kind to drive daddy and mummy to Expo for the motherhood fair.. daddy and mummy is ready to sign up for Cordlife for baby! the unexpected thing was how daddy and mummy agreed to be interviewed for the Cordlife Corporate video.. it was quite an experience!

Yee-po, grandma and uncle yang also went to the John Little Sale.. they bought alot of tibits etc.. we had dinner at Lerk Thai, daddy and uncle yang played 1 round of scissors, paper, stone and uncle yang lost, so he had to drink one spoonful of tom yam soup.. but after awhile, both daddy and uncle yang was drinking on their own will..

finally, yee-po sent all of us back home, it was an fulfilling evening as the TV is now settled and daddy and mummy now got more stuff for Baby Denson!

The buys on the day (includes some free gifts):
