First Time Papa

Getting Prep for a new Generation

24 weeks : We’ll be Away!

December5

Dear Friends,

Jee & I would be travelling to SG this afternoon till next Sunday (14th Dec) to meet up with my brother and his little family. By little.. it includes their cute 4 mths old (8+kg!!) son - Cedric. Haha!

The main purpose however is to attend a Hypno-birthing Course conducted by Ginny from www.fourtrimesters.com. All Thanks to my brother - Chris & Celine for arranging it for us! ^_^

Papa Jee is bringing his notebook, I’m keeping my finger crossed that maybe I can borrow it to blog about our interesting experience in SG for this trip when he’s not using it, which I’m sure is aplenty. :D

Sorry for the lack of blog entries. My poor Sony Ericsson was sent to KL for an ‘emergency operation’ 4 weeks ago.. T.T Apparently the mainboard got fried and render it totally unusable. *Sigh

All the pictures that I took for the blog was inside. Its depressing that I loss my the pics that I took as blog material~ :’( But it was back last Saturday! And luckily the picture were saved in my memory stick. SO that mean I can continue to blog again ^_^ (when i get the time lar :P)

But apart from whatever that was saved in the memory stick, the rest of the info in GONE~ :( Phone books, setting ..etcs. So yeah, my HP is officially a Virgin again liao. *Headache* >_<”


David & Jeslyn.

Sorry that we’ve not manage to pose about the medical facility & gynaes available in Kch yet. Please bear with us :P

We’ll post as soon as we collected enough Info! ^_^.

Alritey~ Till we Blog again! :D Ta~

Craving : Baking frenzy

November19

If anyone were to asked me, what was my MAJOR Craving for this pregnancy?, I think i will say its.. Pastry & Cakes!! Hahaha!

But NOT any Pastry or Cake. It has to be home-made. Maybe I’m more health conscious and I’m blessed with a Mama that is a great Baker ^_^

Ever since my pregnancy, I’ve requested my Mama to make me :

  • Banana cake
  • Hong Kong cake (or also known locally as Kek Sarang Semut)
  • Chiffon cake (not once.. but twice!)

Haha, and last month while they were away visiting my nephew Cedric at SG.. I had the whole house (and kitchen) to myself. And somehow, a baking frenzy caught me and I made these.. all in the span of 2 Days (Saturday and Sunday) alone. :P

Oatmeal Dates Slices

Cheese Straws

Potato Chip cheese Cookie

Banana Muffins

And thats not it.. 3 days after that, I was craving for some banana. So before our daily breakfast at the Stutong Market near our office before work, I bought a bunch of ripe Pisang Mas for RM2. As I was muching on the fruits during office, I suddenly had the Urge to make Banana Muffin! @.@

Ahahah.. I was determined so I looked up the net for a potential Banana muffin recipe, which I found at allrecipes.com that was fairly easy and which I had all the ingredients readily available at home.

So after dinner at Jee’s place, we rushed back to my Mum’s place (we have tai chi class at 8.30 *sweat*). And with some good help from papa Jee and a 30 minuteslater, we got this!!

A trayful of Steaming Banana Muffins fresh from the Oven!

Crunchy on top!

Piping hot and moist in the centre! PERFECTION! *drool*

Now..what would be next?? *Tapping Chin..

Week 19 - I’m back! :P

November2

I’ve been feeling particularly lazy the past months, thus spend most of my free time naping and Zzz-ing away. I was told it was expected, but never expected it to be SO bad. Its not too bad considering sleeping is a 2nd nature to me :P (I just happened to enjoy sleeping as a past time.. teeHee~ :P)

So what has been happening to me, since my last post (long long months ago :P )

I’m now well into my 2nd Trimester.. time seems to flies when you spend your days sleeping away. Haha.

Well, my belly has been getting progressively balooned.. Sob* : translated to “OH NO! I’m runnin our of cloths that fits! Sigh, this is really a fashion dilemma. Because I can no longer wear most of my old clothing, and yet the maternity wear are still too loose to my comfort :(

BUT.. help is on my way. My dear Sis in Law in SG is sending back her own batch of maternity wear for me by next week! Yes! Finally..additions to my already limited wardrobe. hehe

As unlike-me this statement is, I try not to buy too much maternity clothing because its really a pity to spend a lot of $$ on clothings that I’d only be wearing for a few short months. :P

Anyway, just a short update for the time being. I’ll follow up with more post (regularly I hope!)

Quickening : Do I feel it?? :-?

October30

Hello again!! After the extended hiatus.. :P Sory sory..Paiseh :P hehe~

On my last visit to KPJ for my monthly checkup at Week 18 : Dr. Philip Kho our Gynae asked me, “So have you felt you baby moving?”I went “Huh?? Moved? No leh.. can Feel Kah?!”

Hahaha.. apparently by this time most Mums will be able to feel their little one moving inside them. So i waited and waited, and try to take notice of anything extraodinary that can be described as movement..

For about a week plus I waited. Then I got really curious, and did some research. Apparently this first movement is called the ‘Quickening. This is what I found in www.BabyCenter.com
