Baby Scan (34th Weeks)

Last Thursday we went for regular check-up. As usual, will take urine test and measure on weight gain and blood pressure. Every time we will feel excited because can get to know how many kgs gained by myself and how many percent gained by my little one :p

During 34th week, I reached 53.4kg, gained about 12kgs. Doctors said the rate is fine and it is in normal range. I highlighted to her that I have bit water retention on my legs, she advised me to drink more and walk more. Then she scanned my baby, every time she will show the baby heart beat, see baby legs & hand, baby gender, see baby movement, but this time baby seems not moving and kicking a lot compare to last time, most probably not much space for her to move around haha….

Doctor then measured and estimated the baby weight by measuring her stomach diameter. Doctor mentioned that baby is developing well and healthy. However, because of my mini size, our baby size relatively is bigger than what doctor expect haha... Baby, now you are about 2.4kg, if you continue to gain 0.2kg every week, then you will gain total 3.6kg at the week of 40 (full term baby).

So, doctor advised me to control diet, now I seldom to take tea break already :p. After 2 weeks doctor want to see her again, if the development rate is still the same, then she will advise us to induce by 38th week (by end of Nov) ^-^
