Once upon a time...

Hubby is so creative and such a joker at times, this really cracked me up!

We had lunch at West Mall and there's this book fair at the atrium, so I asked if we should buy some books to read to Baby.

He said, "Don't have to la, I have many stories to tell Baby".

I gave him a doubtful look.

And then, he said, "Once upon a time, there was a little worm climbing on a tree. On a rainy night, lightning struck the tree. The worm become prince."

LOL!!!

17 weeks!

• Still feel nauseous every now and then, need to make an effort to keep the food in (but much better than it was in the first trimester)
• Fatigue is improving
• Lower back/butt ache whenever I change sitting positions or stand up
• Appetite has improved slightly too, though it's still a waste of money for me to go steamboats/buffets
• Finally put on weight, I'm now 43.7kg! (from 41.0 kg)

We went for the 4th month gynae visit last Saturday. Yes, 4 months! Supposed to be able to see Baby's gender. Hubby and me were, needless to say, very excited! HOWEVER... Naughty Baby decided to keep us in suspense for a little longer by crossing his/her legs. Haha... Dr. Chin says 80% chance of a girl; we shall find out on the next visit. Hubby seemed a teeny weeny bit disappointed? Though he always claims it doesn't matter. Maybe he really wants a boy so Baby can 继承父业（舞狮）？I have mixed feelings about it. I want a boy so that I won't have to worry about him 被吃豆腐 in future, but I also want a girl as I feel that girls will be more 顾家 and fillial. And can play dress up! Hehe...

Anyway, 天下父母心，as long as Baby is healthy and strong, we'll be contented and will shower Baby with all our love.

Baby, you must grow up healthily alright? Daddy and Mommy are so looking forward to your arrival and we will love you unconditionally :)

On a sad note, my manger's sister has passed away from cancer. It has been a long 3-4 year battle for her, and she has now been relieved from the suffering. I hope her son and family will take it well, though it's easier said then done. Rest in peace...
