11th Week

Got the bills….. $170 for power bill!!!!

Daddy still very tired. Sleep early.

Daddy read stories for the little one for the first time….. it was a tough job…. I fell in sleep after reading a few stories.

Bought some WanTon skin and mince meat. Made some wanton sup…. yummy

We bought a lots of books from Popular Bookshop. All for the little one, which include few story books for Baby to read (to the little one) and others are for me to digest and prepare for the little one ...

Two big things happened that concerned the peoples in Singapore. First, Singapore successfully bid to hold the 1st youth Olympic in 2010. Congratulation.

Second, the 10Mil TOTO jackpot were shared by 10 winners, I was not one of them…. DOH!!

Uncle Tay lended me a stethoscope…… can’t hear anything except bubbles in Baby stomach.

We visited Dr. Ong again. This time, the transducer was running on Baby tummy. We once again saw our little one. The little one had grown since the last time we saw him (of course). Now 4 point something cm liao….. he is moving (of course, again) and kicking his leg….. Dr. Ong managed to capture a scan with the little one’s leg stretched….. he really knew how to pose.






Before we left, Dr. Ong explain to us for things that we should be expecting next: a scan and test for Down Syndrome……

Sent Baby back home and I went back to work. The little one was swimming on my head….

Shared what the doctor had said to us with Constance, she gave valuable advise to me.

10th Week

We were thinking whether to push forward our doctor appointment due to the discharge, although it was already stopped. We called Ching Xia to see if it was possible. She said we can just poped in to the clinic.

We anyway arranged a visit on Tuesday.

Some discharge again. The discharge is more than usual daily amount, and slightly reddish in color. Baby was alerted. But I felt that it was not fresh blood as such. We did nothing except to had Baby to rest further….

Company lunch at Shangri-La. I started to felt that I loose my appetite. My hormone changed also? This time, I eat relatively lesser......

Oh, we almost forgot it was valentine's day. But we didn't celebrate.

Baby discharged from hospital. Anyway, she still had to get rest as much as possible.....

9th Week

Baby still in Hospital ….. Dr. Ong visited her early in the morning. Everything appeared to be okay.

For me, I travelled frequently between home and the hospital. In the hospital, it was good to have PSP accompanied me..... hehe....

9th Week - Second Impact

We thought Baby was okay and we decided to head back to Singapore. Ching Xia traveled with us, and we asked quite a bit of questions.

One thing disappointing was that the Dr. Ong do not keep the soft copy of all the scanned picture….. so, I can’t have them liao. We will only be providing a CD of the scan if we are going for the 3D/4D scan that is going to cost us.

When we were back home, another STORM!! Baby BLEED again …… This time, we called Dr. Ong and we were directed to emit to Mt. Alvinia Hospital.

It took a while before we saw Dr. Ong (time goes too slow). The nurse was trolling a small wheeled device into the room. The device looked aged. But when the doctor flipped the side panel down, it showed a monitor screen and a control panel on the flipped down side panel: it is a portable (or at least a smaller version) of the ultrasound scanner. Dr. Ong said, "this machine need servicing ?!?!?!"

"Are you kidding me? Tell me the machine is working!" But it turned out that Baby and the little one were okay.... but need more rest.....

Baby admitted to hospital again. She had to stay there for three days. But this time, we felt better as we were back in Singapore.

I went back home for sleep that night. I believed that Baby should have a good sleep without my snore.

Baby was still resting at home after discharged from Pantai. Basically, she stayed and never left my room. I had to serve her for everything she need.....

8th - First Impact

It was supposedly a short journey from Yong Peng to Batu Pahat, but it was a long journey for me. Finally, we were right in front of the clinic. Here was another storm, when the nurse at Dr. God Clinic found out that we were not their on-going patient, so, they coundn’t take us!?!?!! What the Holly Mother F**K*&^*##&%$#!##xx!x^%$x#&x#

What kind of clinic was that?!?!?!?! so irresponsible !!! Wasn't it that they must treat all patient when it came to them?!?! what kind of doctor they are? I really couldn't believe that actually happened to me. What can I said…. I can only leave him to the God ….

We had no choice but to send Baby to Pantai Hospital, which was a short distance away. It was only a one year old hospital where we do not know whether they have any such specialist for Baby. But we had to try. I sent Baby to the ICU, and they took her in to examine her conditions.

The malay doctor on duty looked young. He examined Baby and had contacted a gynae to attent to Baby. He said that the gynae stayed nearby to the hospital and should be there shortly.

We were nervous, and the time past very slowly. It was around 1:30am. The nurse finally came and brought Baby to the gynae’s room. The gynea, Dr. Leow, was already there. He did an untrasound scan for Baby to first see if the little one was alright.

The image appeared. We saw the little one. But we were not sure how was the little one’s condition. Dr pressed some buttons, and a familiar sound came into my ear --- my little one’s heart beat.

Time seems to stop. I am not sure if I hear it correctly, and I couldn’t really figure out what exactly it was, I just felt it was familiar.

Dr. finally said: “baby 还有心跳，没有事”. It was like we back to the earth from Mars, i.e. we could breath normal again….. I looked at Baby for a while, I think she had the same feeling as I had. Her eyes were pined on the screen in front of her. I then looked at the screen too.

Dr. pointed at the image and said “that is the little one”. We looked at the same spot. Dr. measured the length, about 2 something cm. I am not sure about Baby, I could clearly see the little one’s features. The little one had a small little tail curling up, a round stomach like me, and a solid head which contain a clever brain as me… hehe…. It is my little one, our little one …

I was so thankful that the Dr. came. Without him, we can’t get through this.

Dr. said that the pregnancy is unstable. He gave her a hormone injection to stabilise the pregnancy. Thank God, I think Baby and the little one are alright now. Dr. let Baby to stay for one night (that night) for observation. So, Baby admitted to the hospital. She stayed in a one bedded room. I need to be there with her. I called Boon, and soon enough, Boon arrived with our luggage. We gave Baby a change for comfortable wear. I accompanied Baby for the night.

I was extremely tired. I had to sleep. But my snore always woke up Baby. I couldn't sleep well, so did Baby. The night was long, we were woke up by daddy and mom early arrival.

Daddy and mom didn't stay for long. I told them that Baby should be able to discharge today after the Dr. visit. Daddy and mom went to the "观音庙" to pray pray.

8th Week - Chinese New Year

GONG XI FA CHAI!!!!

This is the first time I gave ang paos, which everyone had been long waited for.

I called Baby early in the morning to say happy CNY to baby and the little one. Baby told me that there was quite a bit of brownie discharge on that morning. I told her it shouldn't be a problem, and ask her to rest more, and I think she did.

I went back to Yong Peng with daddy and mom, and Cheong and his big group of friends were having CNY party. I went to pick up Baby at her mom's place. By the time we were home, it was almost mid night.

It was the scariest moment I ever had in my life. Baby told me that she bleed. Fresh blood bleeding!!!

What am I suppose to do??!?!?!! I called Ching Xia for some advise. She said must sent her for treatment immediately. There was a Dr. Goh Clinic in Batu Pahat.

Me, daddy and mom went back to KL for re-union dinner. Baby didn’t go back as I wanted her to have a good rest at her mom's place.

Of course, everyone in Yap’s family knew about the little one on that night, and I had blessing from all of them......

I had a mamak drink with Kiat Siong. I shared with him about the little one’s news also.

Getting ourselves in the Chinese New Year mood.....

8th Week - Back To Yong Peng

Went back to Yong Peng. This is the first time the little one went back to meet Ah Gong and Ah Mah (grand daddy and mommy). Mom wasn’t around, she had an appointment with Uncle Lim Gok Tong to discuss about this year bonus...... Scheduled to be back only tomorrow.

7th Week

I fetched Baby to work this morning and used up the last off-peak-car license we had. The timing was good, by the time I sent Baby to work, and I parked my car back at Toa Payoh, it was about 8:30am, which was about the time I usually go to work.

In the afternoon, Baby called and told me that the cleaning lady reached Chun Fei’s home very early, which meant that she completed our house cleaning far less than 4 hours…. She called the lady and was not happy that the lady gave unacceptable excuse….. we may not want to use her anymore…..

Before I left office, Constant was very nice to lend me a couple of books regarding breast feeding. Got more things to read.

Not long before the end of day work, my car sales girl asked me if I had time to go over there….. BTW, as I posted before, I had decided to change my Lancer to Honda Stream. The sales girl told me that MY NEW CAR IS READY to be delivered!!! HURRAY!!!

I quickly rushed back home and picked up Baby. Soon after, we arrived at our car agent office to pick up my new ride.
