Baby weight = 3.3kg
My weight = Total weight gain so far is 15.5kg
Yeah, I’m patiently waiting for baby to come out. This morning I went for my checkup and to see whether there’s any sign of early delivery. And the result is no, it’s not going to happen yet, at least not over this weekend. At this stage, I’m scared thinking of how labour is going to be, and I’m really feeling scared more than excited.
A summary of my week 34:
Baby weight = 2.4kg
My weight = Additional 1.5kg sigh!!!
Baby is growing more hair and the water around her is good. From the ultrasound scan, we can recognize the umbilical cord as the Mickey Mouse sign as described by the OB, something cute like this:
Baby is now 1.9 kg. From what I read, after 32 weeks, baby weight should increase about 250gm per week and based on this rate, my baby will be 3.9kg at birth???!! So scary to even think about that. But OB said yes, the weight will increase quite dramatically after this but will slow down when near the end, there’s nothing to worry about although baby is just a little bit heavier now. So I got to watch out my food intake also, less rice and carbohydrate. Oh, and my weight already increase 12kg sigh 
How am I gonna lose that weight later on?
Here’s a list of items we had bought for baby during baby fair:
Being in the 3rd trimester is really tiring. Add up with more work to do and more things to prepare, sometimes it’s hard for me to breathe. Baby is now 1.7 kg, I think that’s pretty heavy. She moves and kicks a lot. Last month, she seems to be only more active at night, now, she’s active all day long. She can response to our touches and I think that’s pretty cute. Whenever me or hubby touches the tummy, she somehow feels it and will also moves her hand or leg to touch us back 
She can also moves along with the touches. And her kicks, I can only describe it as if she owns a machine gun inside, and just shoot non-stop at my tummy, this mostly happened when I press on her when I sleep. Maybe she has no space to move and needs to show her frustration 
No wonder I feel so tired, she somehow uses up all my energy, I guess.
I should start thinking about baby’s name already but another question popped into my head the other day. What do I want my child to call me and hubby? Mama, papa or mommy, daddy or just ma, pa or mom, dad? Mommy and daddy sounds ‘manja’, mama and papa sounds formal, ma and pa is just like how we adults call our parents now, mom and dad is too western.
It’s a girl! After 2 scans and we still couldn’t see something sticking out, we are almost sure our baby is a girl. Anyway we are not going to buy baby stuffs yet, will wait till I’m about 7-8mths, then we’ll go shopping. Baby is kicking actively nowadays, almost every hour she will kick, there will be mild kicks and kung fu kicks, hehe. Sometimes, she will just wiggle and I can feel that as well.
We went to Langkawi for a short break last weekend. I got the chance to unwind and really relax there. We were not in rush to visit the places of interest there since this is the 2nd time we had been to Langkawi. Soaking in the pool and lying on the beach would be the main activity this time 
Damn it! My holiday flight is being delayed for 8 hours!! How can this happen? @#$^&*”! Stay calm stay calm! I have nothing more to say 
…
Yes, shopping is not a problem now. I can’t believe that I can stand the crowd on the Jusco member day sales that occurred a few days ago. Hubby already complained cannot breathe, but I’m still alive and kicking And I shopped for 2 hours there. I bought some maternity pants, shirt and a pair of swim suit. The next day which was on the Labour Day, we went to Tesco for groceries shopping, and as expected, it was packed with people. And I was able to buy a lot of stuffs.
