Went to see gynae again today.. the appointments are closer now because THE DAY is drawing near. Well no signs of him coming yet, but well, scanned and estimated his current weight at 3.5kg. Dr. said he will probably break his Jiejie's birthweight record of 3.7kg. "Oh Lord, please have mercy on me and aid me in delivering didi naturally!"
We are grateful that he is growing well. Now, his Jiejie has gotten rather particular about whether didi prays together with us. Whenever it's time for prayer, she will speak with a commanding voice, "DIDI!"...like she's telling him, "didi, it's time to pray ok!"
Putting aside my anxieties about the labour process and how we will cope with his arrival, I think all of us are excited about him. Afterall, he is yet another unique masterpiece of God :) Now, we hope his jiejie will adjust well.. I think we have done whatever we could to prepare her. This girl's really funny, when we returned from church camp, she started using the souvenir torchlight to rub against my tummy every now and then. The first time she did it, I did not quite get what she was doing until she looked at me and said, "didi!"..haha then I realised, she was trying to imitate my gynae doing the regular scan. haha :p
Recently, she will every now and then point to herself and say "Jiejie" :) So sweet.. Well, we shall take things a step at a time and trust that God will just cause all of us to grow.
I have heard that the test of partnership between a married couple can be the toughest when No. 2 comes along. With No. 1, usually mummy's the most involved, but with No. 2, daddy gotta start helping out a lot more. And most ppl say, with No. 3 and on, it's easier.. hmm.... looks like we are in for a challenging season....Please pray for us.
