expiration date 

starting this week, i’ll be going to the doctor ever three weeks, instead of four. i guess that’s what happen after you pass the third trimester mark.

this time, her head almost fill up the whole screen… she does grow! currently, she’s almost 1.4 kg, which means within the past three weeks, she has gained 0.4 kilos… i, on the other hand, has gained about 0.5 kilos since three weeks ago. so, almost all of the weight i gained went to the baby, which is a good thing. that’s a relief to hear, because i was kinda worried that i didn’t gain as much weight as i thought i would, and the belly didn’t seem to get any bigger either…

unfortunately, she’s still sitting upright, which is not a good delivery position… and i can still feel the her kicks on my bladder. but the doctor said not to worry, because it’s still quite early and she has plenty of time to turn around.

in this session, the girl was sleeping. she stayed put the whole time, although just like the last session, she kicked once, right on the scanning probe. it was neat to see that she was sleeping, then she turned around facing the probe, as if she was looking at it, and a second later… *thud*… a kick flew to the probe. maybe she’ll be a good soccer player later in life…

the highlight of the visit is to see her mouth moves around. it looks as if she is eating something… we did see it move during the last session, but since her head is now filled up the whole screen, her face is a lot more clear… and it just made my and ari’s day.
