I wish I can post more of baby's scan pics here but unfortunately the ones we have are rather blur. And mostly were scans of body parts coz baby's now too big to be captured as a whole. In any case, here's a little update on baby's growth..

Fetal Estimated Weight* vs Baby's Actual Weight

Week17 - 140g vs 210g
Week20 - 300g vs 374g
Week25 - 660g vs 770g

* according to Babycentre

Alhamdulillah, glad that Peanut is growing v well. Our appointment just now at Thomson Womens Clinic went well! Gynae was as usual v detailed as she sat down and explain what we were looking at on the screen as she was doing my ultrasound. Which i totally appreciate coz Wan & I are no doctors or nujum pak belalang to guess which is head or butt. So Peanut has gained weight, evidenced by her expanding waistline.. lol. Yup tummy v round! Also, gynae thinks this Peanut could be tall. Her legs were curled up but long enuf to cover her face! To be honest, i'm not surprised if Peanut is tall but if she's skinny, well THAT i'll be surprised! hehe

Now that peanut is big, I've been feeling a lot more of her movements. There are of course certain days dat she went MIA. Normally she's active after I've fed her, (after meals..) especially after drinking bird's nest (she becomes hyper prolly of e sweetness from e rock sugar) and also at nights. Last week, she went totally quiet even after I've had my breakfast, lunch and dinner. I was getting extremely worried but then lo and behold, at 10.30pm she started kicking all night!! Aiyoh, I swear dis one is nocturnal like the father. Wish me luck!

We've pretty much settled on her name. We wanted a short but beautiful and meaningful name. Like moi's.. Khkerhhre. 5 letters, dat's it! But these days, dunno y I itchy backside, feel like giving her a front name. I've come up with 2 which Wan was sort of ok with. I tink he's contented with just a short name. I dunno, we'll see!
