Lil' Tyann,
A 30 week old lil' Tyann in Mummy G's tummy certainly feels very different. Lil' Tyann seems to be running out of space to move around.
Sometimes ("Some" is an understatement") you give Mummy G's ribs a hard kick and Mummy G gets a painful shock!(Daddy G says you must be gentler as you are a girl..so LEARN to be gentler and ladylike..or face naggings from you know who in future!!=D)
Lil' one, do you know that you may be coming out into this world in just 7 weeks? 37 weeks in Mummy G's tummy is considered "old" enough to be out into the real world and Daddy and Mummy G are getting so excited!!
Mummy G has bought a lot of nice clothes for you to wear when you come out. There was a major sale in Hong Kong when Mummy G (and Tyann in Mummy G's tummy!!) went for a business trip last week. You must have felt Mummy G go wild in the shopping centre! Hahaha!
Daddy G is his usual self...warns Mummy G to "Stop buying!Lil' Tyann will outgrow the clothes and she will not get to wear them! CONTROLLLLLL..."
Makes sense but the "Control" part is really diificult.. For Mummy G at least. Hee hee hee...Think Daddy G can only just shake his head in despair...Hiak Hiak! =p
Daddy G and Mummy G went to the hospital to do a 4D scan of Lil' Tyann... we really wanted to see how lil' Tyann looks like and so trooped down to Thomson Medical Centre for the 4D scan.
Alas! Lil's Tyann is certainly one cheeky fella. Dr Fong (and all other nurses, sonographers who have interacted with you so far) has said that you are super active-as in S.U.P.E.R active and you are one baby that cannot stop moving! Hence, you, agile one, gave us the slip yesterday and hid your face either behind Mummy G's tummy wall or spread both of your lil' hands across your face to hide it from us!
But Aunty Nurse managed to snap one not so clear picture of your face and that is Daddy and Mummy G's only picture of your full face so far...
Almost towards the end of carrying you in my tummy, Mummy G often feels an overwhelming rush of emotions when I think of the past 7.5 months.
In spite of the painful kicks, tightening & itchy tummy, slight disappointment in the 4D scan failure, Mummy G is thankful...
Mummy G is thankful for:
1. The day when she found out she was miraculously carrying a baby when it was "tecnically" quite improbable. (and this is another story for you lil' one.)
2. The day she heard the baby's heartbeat for the first time as it meant you were alive and fighting to survive against all odds.
3. The day she could stop her alternate day painful Progesterone injections to keep ll' Tyann alive in her tummy as it meant lil' Tyann had put up a strong fight in the first three months of your conception and won the fight.
4. The day she found out about the amniotic band/sheet in her tummy as it made her realise how much she already loved her lil' unborn one.
5. Tha day she found that the amniotic band/sheet had not harmed lil' Tyann as it meant her lil' Tyann had yet again fought another battle and won.
6. The day she felt lil' Tyann's first rumblings in her tummy as it was such an out-of-this world experience.
7. The day she received the results of all the blood tests etc and everything was good.
8. The day she realised she could not fit into her jeans anymore for it meant lil' Tyann was growing well in her tummy.
9. The day(s) when Daddy G put his hand on Mummy G's tummy for it showed how much lil' Tyann is loved.
10. The day(s) lil' Tyann would kick me at painful places for it meant you are getting stronger by the day.
Mummy G tells herself to remember this thankful feeling because it will be this feeling of thankfulness that will carry Mummy G through tougher times of parenthood.
When tough times arise with lil' Tyann in future, Mummy G hopes Daddy G, lil' Tyann and her will be thankful for each other and go through all good and bad times together- with the same thankful heart.
