Blame It On The Baby

Is this how it's gonna be all my life? Always blaming it on the baby?

You see, lately my Mummy's been feeling very sick right around dinner time. She needs to go to the bathroom. Then when she comes out, she says, "It's the baby's fault!"... what did I do??

Then, everytime my Mummy stands on those things called scales, she looks at the numbers, and says, "Oh, it's because of the baby!" How is that??

Finally, today when Daddy wanted to watch the football on TV, Mummy made him drive all the way to the other side of Singapore to buy some Shanghai dumplings that cannot be bought anywhere else (the right quality ones anyway - sheng jian bao)... Mummy said that's something called 'cravings'... and that is somehow also my fault!!!

Always blaming it on the baby!!!! *sigh*

Big Secret - I 'Might' Be A Boy

So here's the latest 'buzz' (my Daddy uses that word all the time, I'm not really sure what it means).

Today I'm 13 weeks into my journey, and I went to see that nice doctor again. This time, I decided to do a little gymnastics while Daddy was video recording that funny ultrasound machine. I also showed everybody how I can use my arms already and pretended to scratch my ear. :)

But the big surprise (and it's even a bigger secret), is that the doctor thinks that I'm probably a boy. He showed Mummy and Daddy what he thinks might be my 'boy parts'. But he told them not to announce it yet, because he wants to make sure and confirm it in 3 weeks time.

The reason it's a surprise is that Mummy really thought that I will be a girl, because the Chinese calendar says that I should be... it's funny watching my Mummy and Daddy talk about things like this, because Daddy says that it's not possible to know what I am by using the moon and numbers. Of course, Mummy says something about people in China using this method for thousands of years - I don't really know what all this means either - coz I'm just a baby!!

Anyway, please make sure you don't tell anyone this secret - I promised that I wouldn't tell anyone yet!! SHHHHHH!!

Check my video out from today:

My Heart Is Beating - Yoohoo!!

Today we went back to see the doctor... it's still way too early to find out if I'm a boy or a girl, but it was wonderful to be able to see my heart beating so fast and so strong!!

My Mummy and Daddy are very, very happy today, and the doctor said that I am probably going to be a big girl or boy, because already I've grown to a huge size of 3.8cm!! maybe I can play basketball when I grow up?

Daddy couldn't help himself - he had to take out his iPhone and video record the ultrasound screen... if you look closely, you can see my heart beating!!

I don't know why my Daddy had water in his eyes?? So very strange!!
