Went to see Doctor Adrian today for my last checkup before delivery. Baby is about 3.6kg, so we decided to induce her on Wed. Doctor Adrian then told us to go back to prepare and be back at the hospital at 11pm where he will give me a tablet to assist me to dilate.
I'm so nervous now. In maybe less than 24 hours, we will see the arrival of our beloved daughter - Fion.
Time flies. I’ve been so busy at work the last 2 weeks trying to clear my things. School holiday has started and coming to an end soon. Next week when school reopens, I’ll be on maternity leave too.
Fion has been very co-operative and understanding towards her mummy’s needs. Despite a lot of pple said my tummy is low and expected to go on delivery earlier than the EDD, I’m still working at my 38th week. This Saturday will check with the doctor to see when to induce her as she is growing so big. She is now almost 3.5kg. At this rate, if I don’t induce her, may need to go thr' c-sec to get her out. That’s the last thing I want to. I would want her to come to the world in the most natural way.
I can't wait to see my baby, but yet I worry I won't be a good mother. The anxiety and nervousness is getting over me. May be the hormonal change too that cause me to have all sort of emotions. In the first place, I'm more of an emotional person. I really hope to be a good mother and also keep reminding myself not to be overly protective. It's hard, but I have to try. With all the support I could get from people around me, I would have to tell myself I can do it.
Gan Ba Tie!!!
