Just in case you guys are wondering, that ain't the actual photo of our baby but what it would look like at this stage. Ignore those text though! I'm sure he'll come with good manners, Insya Allah!

Sorry peeps, was quite a long time since I last updated my blog. Was quite busy prepparing stuffs for the 12th APARC Congress as well as my one-week outstation starting this Friday. Today, brought Honey for her monthly pregnancy check up. Believe it or not, it's week 34 already. That's like 8 months and 2 weeks fellas! And most important of all, the baby is now already in the proper birthing position. Thank god that everything is so far so good all this while.

So, let's see our baby's progress this week. The baby reponds as a newborn with its eyes open while awake and closed while sleeping. He or... she (Hey, you'll never know!) is developing immunities to fight mild infection. Those sharp little fingernails are at the ends of the fingertips already, and I might be the one clipping em' during the first few days after birth! Haha... Talk about excitement. Subhanallah...

Honey's gynist told us that everything looks perfect. All the baby's measurements are just right at this stage. The heartbeat was a healthy one and she said that we should start expecting our baby's due at the END OF THIS MONTH! The actual date is September 11th but normally she will advise plus or minus 2 weeks for parents to standby and start buying all those baby's stuffs and just get ready for the big day. She'll be able to pick up the other stuff more accurately during our next visit.

The only thing that the doctor is a little concerned about is the fact that Honey hasn't gained any weight yet after her last visit. She said it's OK for now, but if she continue to gain nothing, she will have to make some suggestions on her diet. The baby needs to develop in this stage and needs food from mummy to help him develop. When we visit her again in two weeks time, she'll check on Honey's weight again and take the next step.

At least our baby is fine! Am I worried about Honey not having gained any weight? Well, look at it this way : Enjoy gaining weight on purpose while can! ;) Besides, Honey was more particular in what she consumed and controlled her diet A LOT esepcially on sugars after the doctor advised her to be more careful on her level of sugar during the last visit. I guess that have effected her diet a lot with no more late nights suppers and stuffs!

And hey, tips for dads. Mom is feeling huge and clumsy now. She may be weepy and vulnerable or extremely moody. Tell her how beautiful she is and what a wonderful mom she'll be. Serve her breakfast in bed and help her feel like the special woman she is. That helps!

Better finish some stuffs here at work before I'm out on Friday. See ya!
