Pregnancy Weeks 17 : Craving

I do have craving during my 2nd pregnancy , especially Noodle, cakes & spicy food. Is almost the same as my 1st pregnancy . But 1st pregnancy i don’t crave for sweet cake .

Pregnancy Weeks 18 : What do the Sibling(brother) think ?

We start to tell Jeremy that he is going to be a brother/kor kor soon … I guess by now he slowly can understand it ! On and off he wanna to listen to my tummy and see what is the baby doing …. sometime he give me a real funny answer …. “got chu chu train” ” got dinosaur sound “ properly he is trying to tell me that the baby is praying inside of mummy tummy .

During bedtime, either we read book together or i will draw some simple drawing to him . Usually he will ask me to draw elephant , horse or dinosaur . After the simple sketch was done, he will ask me to draw he himself riding the elephant , behind with papa and mummy will stand beside the elephant. Recently he will ask me ” 画弟弟阿, 小小个” ( draw didi, a very small didi) . I love it when he can understand about sibling and i hope he will love and share things with his coming lil brothers . How nice !! A family of Four !!

Pregnancy Weeks 19 : Baby Movement .

My gynea told me , properly i can feel baby movement at weeks 16 with this 2nd baby, but i wait and wait ….NO sign of movement for the 4th months. So at the Weeks of 19 , i able to feel the baby movement , not strong, something like “butterfly” move . soft and light .

I remember when i was pregnant with Jeremy, the first movement was kind a weired for me, and abit of “geli” to me too . It’s always quiet during the day. But the moment you lie down to sleep, the baby start to move, swimming inside u . But you get used to it. It becomes normal. You learn to expect it. And love it later . By the time you don’t feel the baby movement, you start to get worry !!

Pregnancy Weeks 20 : Back pain during night sleep

I do my usual check-up every month .Everything went WELL (mummy and baby) yesterday for my check-up, i lost 1.5kg last month, this month i gain 2kg back .I have slight back and butt pain, it usually happen during my night sleep, i cant really sleep straight and flat, i have to sleep side way . Other then this, i m fine. baby is doing good too. no sign of any DS or anything “wrong” . Thank GOD !!

This is my daily supplement .

Obimin Plus with DHA + EFA, 2 tablets Calcium and Soya base drink .

I don’t like soya or milk at all, but i force myself to take in 1 cup/day.

Last, doctor again confirm the baby is 101% BOY @ Weeks 20 .
