29 Weeks Pregnant

Unlike other weeks, Kevin and I went for our weekly follow-up and ultrasound slightly later today since we had to attend an antenatal class at the hospital at 2.00pm.

Our little munchkin's usually very much awake and in "full performance mode" when we go for our weekly ultrasound ritual (every Saturdays at 10.00am). But since we went at 1.00pm today (which coincides with her afternoon nap time), she was fast asleep during our ultrasound appointment (a very rare thing for her). Yet she still managed to sneak a smile for us during the ultrasond while she napped :)

As of today (Week 29 - Day 1), the little munchkin's fetal stats are:  
- Heartbeat: 133bpm  
- CRL: ~26cm
- Weight: ~1.5kg


By the time the antenatal class started, she was wide awake and kicking ~ her afternoon naptime was over :) The topic discussed today was Caring for Newborns, followed by a baby bath demo. If only the demo was on a real baby and not a doll. 

Oh, the little munchkin was definitely wide awake to listen in on the baby bath demo by the nurse ~ as it is, she loves bath time with mommy and daddy even from inside the womb. I guess she wanted to make sure mommy picked up some tips for when the time comes to bathe her in a couple of months.




Hmmmmm, looks easy enough, right?!? But I'm still not so sure I would be comfortable bathing my newborn freehand in a round basin though ~ especially one with no support... 

*Note to self: Buy baby bath tub with sling/stopper support to prevent any slippery slip-ups.
