This is my 4th and final ultrasound before I pop. My purpose in this scan is to have a glimpse of baby’s face, to know his weight and to know his gender.
Unfortunately, only one of my questions is answered that is baby’s weight. Baby only weighs at 2.7kg now. That explains why this baby can perform kungfu stunt in my tummy. He has more space compared to his sisters and brother. Thank God baby is not wearing any Walking Boots yet. If not, I am sure my tummy would burst by now! He may be small but he sure is one strong baby.
From previous pregnancies, baby weight doesn’t increase further after 36 weeks. Looks like this baby is gonna be small. I should be happy right? Because small means easier to come out and no tearing. Surprisingly, I am not. I worried that baby is going to come out with skin and bones only because throughout this pregnancy I don’t have much appetite to eat. Now, I only pray that baby is perfect and healthy. Not forgetting adorable and fairer than his other siblings. Someone, please be fairer than Mommy please!!! Hehe.
No face too in this ultrasound coz baby is facing inwards and can’t even see his gender. My doctor didn’t want to predict his gender because there’s umbilical cord there. He even jokingly told me when I asked about baby’s gender that that is the chapter in his medical books that he did not read! Looks like it is going to be a surprise.
Stumble it!
Aww, I’m sure your abbe will be strong and healthy! I think it’s kinda cool not to know the gender until it comes out, because then the doctor can shout: It’s a boy! or, It’s a girl! And then you can take it all in… So rest plenty and don’t stress too much… Good luck with your remaining weeks!
