29th Week

nothing much.... we had our lazy weekend with our baby, mostly sleeping...

Mommy did her inventory check, finally. We listed out what we already had and what we need for our baby .... I think she just made railroad long list....

This is another Dr. Ong visit again.... felt like a long while since we visited the last time. We went to the clinic early in the morning. It was earlier than my usual working hour.... Mommy had to do a blood test for sugar level. Oh yeah, she had to fast for at least 8 hours since yesterday night.

Then, we saw Dr. Ong, and our little one again. We was sleeping, when we saw him, and he yawned with his tongue stick out a little..... kind of sweet. It was another usual check up and everything were alright. This time onward, we have to do our checkup once every fortnight. Oh, it is almost 30 weeks already, we only have another 10 to go.

After that, I met Master Lim, our FengShui Master, to let them know our intention to have him to name our baby. Then, we cam back home for a rest, our forth antenatal class was at 4pm.

The class was not as excited as I tot..... most of it was a repetition of the 3rd class, about labouring. Then we had hospital tour. We visited one of the family room and the delivery suite. So we roughly know what to expect. Oh yeah, we also walked away with a small Avent gift pack which include a small milk storage bottle.

After that, mommy wanted to do some shopping at CenterPoint. 6th floor of CenterPoint is Robison's baby and kid department. Some sales going on there, but Avent products does not entitle to any discount. We did not get anything there. Then, we headed to John Little for our second round. I was not sure what would "Singapore Great Sale" mean. Ultimately, I felt that it was simply a gimmick to get everybody out for shopping without actual "sales"...... We still came out with three bags nevertheless .....

oh.. it was a tiring day today....

We visited my boy's potential nanny's place (finally) at Kim Keat Link that was just along out way from home to baby's office. Very convenient.

The nanny, Karen, is a kind and soft spoken lady. She is a mother of a young school boy and she is currently taking care of an 18 months old girl for a Malaysian couple.

We are quite comfortable with her, and I think we will be engaging the nanny when the mommy starts to work.

Have been eyeing this piece since we have our baby, aimed to capture all our baby's moment with clarity ...

After a long researching and searching, I finally bought it ... a painful pinch on my pocket ... but what to do, it is all for our baby boy ...

Employee of the Year

Saw Constance (my colleague) today. Nothing surprise me until I overheard that she was supposed to induce today. She was not supposed to be in the office today, but she did. Well she looked very rush today, and I guessed she was trying to clear up her works before going for her long maternity leave ... What a good employee ...

Anyway, I sent her a message at late evening to wish her the best. She reverted telling me that her gynae wanted her to induce tomorrow morning ...

28th Week

Baby suggested to watch movie at Ang Mo Kio hub. Seems to have some discount on tickets for UOB credit card payment. Well, that would be my boy's first movie experience. We were discussing whether to watch KingFu Panda or the Incredible Hulk ...

We finally reached there. Oh my, the queue was long ... seems like everyone was catching movie on weekday for the cheaper ticket rate ...

We queued for while only, and we gave up (sorry baby) ... didn't think it worth the effort to waited for so long just for the little discount. We agreed that we should watch it at Toa Payoh instead, no queue, generaly. We headed for our dinner there and have a shopping thereafter.

You may guess, shop for baby stuff again ... We visited few stores there and we eventually come out with an infant wrap from SwaddleMe.

Kind of looks comfortable to the baby when it is wraped ... just not sure if the baby will think the same ...

"that's what you think only ... daddy should try first ..." - Dr@co

The Arrival of Baby Avatar

Following my "revenge" post.... the mini-Jason (also known as Baby Avatar, see here) had finally arrived to met us all.  I visited them at NUH..... 

I was so excited for them and I couldn't wait to see mine too ......

3rd Antenatal Class

I continued my project Eagle One. The paint ran out pretty fast, one follow another ....

I was wandering, does it make any sense to that?? Shall I just get a new cot for my baby......

We attended our third antenatal class. The 3rd class was about labouring and breathing techniques. We was taught about the labouring stages ...

Before the class ended, there was about 5 minutes practice on how to relax. Mommy lay on me (very tiring for me) and followed the instructions. She supposed to totally relax herself ... but I noted Dr@co was rather active ...

I visited Jason and Ting Yee, and of course the baby avatar, at NUH. Congratulations!

Mommy finished her multi-vit. So I walked over Dr. Ong's clinic to replenish it.....

Project Eagle One - Old Cot, New Look

It was a sunny morning. Baby received an SMS from Shirley, Dr. Ong's nurse. OH NO!! We forgot that we were supposed to have our routine checkup today... Doh!


After we had our breakfast, I drooped by the hardware shop at our neighbourhood and bought three cans of acrylic epoxy spray paint, one red, one blue and one yellow to kick start my baby cot reconditioning project ....


I dismantled the baby cot and brought them all to the top deck of a nearby multi-story car park. The sun was just right above my head, and I started my project with the blue color for the side two panels. It was quite windy. It helps to cool me down a little, but on the other hand, it blew away the paint..... Doh!


It only lasted for about an hour. I finished all three cans of paint. So I called it a day for my project.



We had our second antenatal class.

First Antenatal Class

We had our first antenatal class at Mt. Alnernia. The class was about nutritions for pragnency. It was much easier gaining such information by simply listened to the experts than reading it myself ...

So, is was quite true that Folic Acid is not only good for the 1st trimester (and before pragnency) as said in most books, but through out the pragnency. Lucky that we follow our gynae's instructions.
