Babies progress at 30 weeks

During my 30th weeks scan, I was delighted to learn the weight of the babies. Ah Girl weighs 1.6kg and Ah Boy weighs 1.4kg. They are both at the good weight range. Knowing that they are growing well is the best Birthday present that I had received this year.

The boy finally turned his face out and we could see his feature during the scan, the girl had also turned her head down which mean I am in a better position for Nature Birth if all turns out well.

I am seriously considering this option for the benefits of early recovery and ease of breastfeeding. There is also a bet going on at my office to guess which baby come first. $5 per bet, interested?

Back to School Birthday Party...

I can't believed that I have my first theme birthday party at the age of 35. I know age is only a number and we can celebrate the way we like it but I have never dream of doing a theme. But thanks to my friends..I should say crazy friends and it actually happened. My 35th Birthday theme was back to school and everyone have to turn up in school uniform except me, simply because I am pregnant and don't think any school uniform is cater for a pregnant student. I was to dress as the principle and I gladly oblige.

Before the party, I do not know what to expect but the party turn out to be successful, not everyone turn up in uniform but it was successful enough and the theme turn everyone crazy and we felt going back to school.

The lovely cake that Vanessa order was even more meaningful, it was pretty and every cup cakes represent the nickname of each of us..simply heavenly.

More interestingly, we were told that there are birthday themes line up for the whole year and the next inline is Lady Gaga..stay tune for more update...

Bubble tea craving

It is a fattening craving but I constantly craved for Bubble Milk tea. It started with KOI then Gong Cha and now Drink Tea.

I used to think KOI is nice but Gong Cha is better then I tried Drink Tea and the first 2 simply cannot match up. The Drink Tea Roast Milk tea with roselle pearl is simply heavenly and the tea made me travel all way to NEX on a crowded Sunday to buy the tea. Apparently that the only outlet in Singapore right now.

Louis is against me drinking milk tea cos that's one of the factor that cause my rapid weight gain. But I am not the only one gaining weight, the twins are growining equally well, right!! More over, I will have complete stop drinking coffee or tea once I start breastfeeding, so if I don't drink to my heart content now, I will have to wait for a long time before I reconnect with the milk tea.

Am I Gungho or simply crazy??

I have made plan for holiday to Guang Zhou in July 2011 and I am going to confirm the airtickets and hotel booking today. Do I sound crazy? Been dying to plan a trip out of Singapore after the confinement and before I start work and I had this worked out 6 months ahead of schedule.

Will I regret my decision later?? Will be steady enough to leave the twins with the nanny and went off for the holiday in July? Shit, what should I do??

Last week of 2nd Trimester

Time passes fast and I am into the last week of 2nd trimester. What's left is the new excitment and anticipation of the last 3 months of pregnancy before I get to meet the twins. I got many questions from friends asking me if I have gotten all the necessary stuffs before the babies arrived? Frankly, what are the stuffs required?

I have many hands me down from colleauges, friends and my brother. My mum's place is almost filled with babies's stuffs passed down by my brother. There are babycot, car seat, milk warmer, clothes, milk bottles, breast pump and many more. Our babies room is also in a big mess with all the stuffs from friends and colleagues. I am happy collecting them for now and will do proper sorting and cleaning nearer to the delivery date, I hope I will have the discipline to do so ONE day!!

I should go for a celebration with Louis to celebrate the new milestone. Have been feeling hungry faster these days, must be babies growing and they demand more foods and energy right? I don't want to be the only one gaining the weight..haha
