#AudMTN // #BabyLeifJournal Dental visit Went for my Dental appointment for the first time during pregnancy. When the dentist was scaling my teeth, Leif was terrified inside my womb. He keeps kicking, punching and moving all over the place.

#AudMTN // #BabyLeifJournal - Self monitoring After a week of strict diet, I had to take my glucose test at home myself before and after every meal. Which means One day, I had to poke my fingers for 7 times for 2 continuous days! After 2 days all my fingers are full of holes but thank God that I passed. Don't have to monitor anymore but strict diet continues.

#AudMTN // #BabyLeifJournal - low sugar diet Due to gestational diabetes, I had to follow a strict low sugar diet to ensure both baby and I will be safe. Well, goodbye to all my favorite food. See you after delivery. *The plan to post all my backlogs before 2018 failed. New year new resolution. I hope I will be able to journal more and share more even after another new life joining the family very soon. Been having contractions on and off these days. Wish me luck!

#AudMTN // #BabyLeifJournal Week 20 Yeah! It's finally the detailed scan! Baby Truffle, mama got very excited because it's time to reveal your gender. Although Papa looked calm but I knew he was hoping that you will be a boy, so that he can also experience the father and son thingy. Well, He got his wish came true!! 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 💙💙

#AudMTN // #BabyLeifJournal Week 17 This boy is a camera shy boy. Always hiding his face. Middle of the night, Joie was throwing tantrum for no reasons. Suddenly i had a very bad leg cramp. I was shouting and crying for husband's help to relieved the muscles because it's really damn painful, I thought my leg is breaking. Joie stopped crying immediately and came to hug me, says "mama, why you cry? don't worry. I'm here. I sayang you. I help you massage okay? Don't cry, don't worry..." Honestly I wasn't crying in the first place but after this little angel comforted me like this, i couldn't stopped my tears. Ahh... My baby is a big girl now... 😍😘

#AudMTN // #BabyLeifJournal 13 Weeks Decided to stay with the previous gyne. Went for Oscar scan, and everything went well. Baby Truffle was 72.6cm, growing well and healthy. That's the best words to hear during every gyne visits! After being a mum myself, I realized, A mum's worries starts from the very moment she was conceived till the moment she leaves the world. It is a never ending thing. Well, I Guess, that's mum huh?

#AudMTN // #BabyLeifJournal 9 weeks Harlo baby! Cute little hands and legs are slowly showing. Time to decide on our Singapore gyne. Should I have a change or stick to my previous one? Dr Ben is good, nothing to pick on actually. Maybe I should just stick to him.

#AudMTN // #BabyLeifJournal - The discovery. I've been breastfeeding ever since Baby Joie was born, which is why I do not have my period visits. I do not know why and what gave me the urge to do a pregnancy test (Mother instinct maybe). On Mother's day night, I decided to test it. Peed on the test kit and took a deep breath. 2 lines showed! Can't believed my eyes, I opened another kit to try. Turned out to be 2 lines again! I calmed myself and walked to the living room to Kareshi, my mum and brothers and gave them a big big smile! Mummy smiled and gave me a big hug. Kareshi was really delighted! Baby Truffle, do you know you are the best Mother's day gift ever? Grow well and be safe okay? All of us love you!
