I love her so much that I really can't wait for her arrival this Sept! I wish time flies so fast during this pregnancy that zooom, and it's Sept. Shopping for baby clothes are so fun and I just couldn't resist all the girly pinky purplish rompers. They are so pretty even with just a stamp of butterfly or flower. But, my conscious mind told me to get more unisex wear so that our next baby can wear if is a he. It's hard to resist especially when the girl's clothes are so cute.
Words really can't describe how much I adore this baby and how much I really treasure every moment of this pregnancy. Every kicks that she made lights up my day and sometimes I will go crazy if she didn't kick much for half a day. I quickly hold my breath, try to move around so that she wakes up and kicks but sometimes silent. At days, she can be so quiet for the whole day and I can only feel some faint movements. I try not to worry much, perhaps she's just tired or she's not in the mood to kick but she wants more rest. Well, at days we are tired and don't feel like talking or just feel like sleeping. That's the same to baby too... they have moods! I read in the net and some even said that baby moves lesser when they are developing! So, no worries mom .... on the day she moves lesser which means she's GROWING! Some cells are developing that she needs more rest and sleep to make sure they grow faster and complete.... How comfort these words are. Worry less, commit the development phase to God because He's the Creator! And God said that the work that He has started, He shall make it into completion.... hallelujah!
Praise God, we have now reach the 22 weeks and 18 more weeks to go .... looking back at how God brought us through this far, we just can't stop thanking God for his blessings, grace and mercy and He answers our prayer, the desire of our hearts and He is good all the time. It is easy to praise God when things go along our way, but we've learnt on persistent prayers and never give up hope on God because in hard times, He's building us to persevere , persistent in our prayers and the expansion of our faith. Indeed, He's preparing us to be strong mom and dad to our kids through all these expansions. Thank you Lord!
18 more weeks to go and we've been reading up materials on how to care for newborn, what to do and what not to do. There are still lotsa planning to do and we are truly excited! So excited .... =D I can't stop smiling everytime when my gal kicks.... all I can say is I LOVE HER SO MUCH!
We've already got a Christian name for her --------- ASHLYNN NG. I felt so attached when I first saw this name. Ashlynn means Vision of God from Biblical point of view and if you're searching through the net, it means Dream. Well, this baby gal of ours is indeed the vision that God has given to us, and she will grow up living and walking in the vision that God has placed for her and all her dreams, will be according to the vision of God, glorify the Creator's name and she will dream big Dreams! I like how the vision of God and dream connect to each other. She's our precious baby gal .... living and growing in the vision of God.
Now, we are still deciding on the chinese name because there is the generation list to follow. Hopefully the chinese name will flow along with her Christian name because my mandarin is kosong. LOL. My dad shall help me out in this ....... =D

Gynae Visit at 20 weeks - Grow baby Grow!
Thank you Lord!! We had our 20 weeks 2 days checkup on 14 May 2011 and good job to our lil gal, she's growing on the right track! She's now measuring 20 weeks 6 days, 4 days in advance! A huge accomplishment that we are now left with only 20 more weeks to go.
Our baby was shy on that day that she decided to cross her legs. But our gynae had a quick glimpse on the gender before she decided to cross her legs. It might be a SHE. So, it's double confirmed that it's a she for now. I've purchased many pinky clothes for her and they are so cute!! XD
Everything was good on the checkup and we got a good news, the placenta is already moving to upper position so our gynae said that natural birth shouldn't be a problem. Thank you Lord.... we can't wait to meet our baby gal! And she's already been kicking alot... I can feel them even when I'm standing! The feeling was so great that I know she's doing so well inside.. Finally, this pregnancy has been revealing itself... with the growing tummy and kicking baby inside! Awesome... =)
The next checkup will be on 24 weeks, 11 June 2011 at Subang Medical Specialist for Fetal Anatomy Scan which cost RM270.

I just can't stop smiling...... =D
I just can't stop smiling looking at all our purchases for our darling gal. I felt so good, happy and excited... All I can say is I really can't wait for her arrival!
And today, 12 May 2011, we've hit the 20 weeks! Which means we are already halfway through the amazing pregnancy journey. 20 more weeks to go before we meet our lil gal. Usually I would not count in the month of Sept because that will be the month of waiting for labour. Hehe.... to make it short, we only left with 3.5 months! If you ask if I'm already ready, I would say YESSSSS!!
All of these, we know we can't go on this far if it's not because of:
Our BIG God in Heaven! Thank you Lord,

- for this wonderful creation, that our darling is wonderfully and fearfully made!

- that you are always with us, never leave us nor forsake us, you are a faithful God and you answer ALL our prayers!
Our Parents! Thank you,

Mom & Baby Expo 2011!
Knowing that we will be heading to the mom & baby expo on 7th May at Midvalley, I barely can sleep at night. Woke up few times to pee and then I can't fall asleep because I know it is going to be an exciting day of "treasure hunt". Look, Compare and Purchase! Booomm..... there will be holes in our pockets as well because we've decided to make our nursery room COMPLETE all at ONCE! The whole concept of this is to purchase and pay everything few months before the arrival of our baby. Up to date, we still have 4-5 months before meeting our darling and that will be the months available for us to save up for delivery! Yeappieee....... And to summarize, our nursery room is fully "furnished" when we're at 19 weeks! That's really early! Haha!
We arrived at 10am and thought it started at 10am, but it only began at 10.30am.
The stage whereby competition after competitions will be held.
Look at our purchases!!! Guess how much we have spent in ONE day!
Combi Stroller and Car Seat ....
And Justin had a tough time carrying all these items to our house. At least there is basement parking in our condo.
The free gifts in the goodies bag ... can't believe there are so many goodies!!
And we shall begin our CALCULATION here. Let's see how much we have spent in one day! =DD
This is the new brand of diapers and they sell for only RM20 per pack! Super cheap..... we bought 1S, 3M and 2L. Not sure how good is this new brand but I did ask one of the moms there and she said it's good for her son. Hopefully our baby is OK with this pampers. And my colleague mentioned not to get too good/expensive pampers when newborn because every now and then you need to change the diapers, so no point getting the really absorbent type. Quite make sense, so we decided to give it a try... and there goes 6 packs at once. Super Kiasu rite...
Total = RM120
Booties and Mittens - RM1.50 per packet. So cheap rite...
Total = RM1.50 x 4 = RM6

The Bump @ 18 weeks
It's getting huge!! Picture was captured on 18 weeks 2 days when we were preparing to go back Sitiawan for Labor's day holiday! XD
A closer View
And a further view!
Thursday, May 5, 2011
I love my Baby!
We were back in Sitiawan during the Labor's day holiday and we had a scare! On the 2nd day in Swan, I was having a veryyyyyyyy bad dizziness and when I lied down, I felt my head was spinning, and when I got up from bed, the world spinned as well. I can't even walk properly and lost balance most of the time. I just felt like fainting. I also puked everytime I input some food. This was really scary because I've not experienced such dizziness in my ENTIRE life! And this dizziness lasted for 2 days until the 2nd day, I've decided to visit gynae in Swan because I don't feel good.
We rushed to the gynae in the morning and everyone was quite "tensed up". Waited for almost 40 mins to reach my turn for the checkup. I breathed a deep breath of relieved when I saw my baby's heartbeat! Thank you Lord! I love my baby! Our baby is doing really well and measured 19 weeks 2 days whereby we were supposed to be in 18 weeks 4 days.
And we have another good news! We will be having a PINKY girly baby!! Awwww, I've already imagined my baby gal dressed up in cute cute pink dresses! We won't get any baby clothes yet until we are confirmed with the gender with our own gynae, Dr Lee. So next week shall mark the beginning of baby clothes shopping as we will be having our 20th week checkup on 14 May. I'm just so excited!
The checkup went quite well and we really Thank God that our baby is doing really really good. In fact the dizziness does not affect our baby and hopefully I will feel better in the days to come. Doc is Swan is quite good and generous in giving MCs. I asked for one day and he gave me 2 days! Nice... haha. Not only that, the consultation is only RM40 and ultrasound RM40 as well. Total RM83 plus RM3 dizzy medicine. In SDMC, the cheapest without medicine is also RM100.
And yeah, this weekend we will be heading to Baby Fair in Midvalley. Hopefully we can really grab cheap deals! And the following weekend, we shall say HI to our baby again .... XD
