神奇的胎动

514 (19 weeks 2 days)

難以形容的第一次胎動﹐凌晨4點多。足以令我興奮的睡不着。有點衝動想把我身邊熟睡的daddy給叫起來。

Today I had my 19th week check-up, all looks good. We also got a gender determination, which the doctor said he felt was 99% accurate, and so, without further ado, we proudly announce that................IT’S A BOY!

Wonderful Time

Ultrasound taken on 12th March 2008

Having a baby is a wonderful and exciting time in a couple’s life. The baby will bring a whole new chapter into the life of the parents and will become one of the major reasons for every decision that is made by the parents. Every aspect of life will become more complicated and will need to be planned and well thought out.

We saw you for the first time this week. My baby was healthy, as were you! In fact, we even saw your heart beating!

First times are not only a lesson to learn, but also a memory to cherish.
