3 more kg and possibility of C-sec ... :(

Today is my monthly gynae checkup. Went with some apprehension cos' i have been quite worried abt my weight gain for the past one month. And guess wat, even with me controlling on my diet, i have easily gained another 3 kg!!!!! #$%^&& now i have officially past the 70-kg mark. At this time, i remembered wat Serena warned me a few months ago when i complained abt my weight gain. "Wait till you pass your 70-kg mark, i think that's even more depressing!" and indeed it is depressing ..... :(

Asked my gynae why i am gaining so much weight even i have not binged, he calmly told me that during pregnancy, hormones will result in ur body retaining more fats and proteins automatically. So even if you eat normally (like wat you used to b4 pregnancy), you will still gain quite substantial weight. Me getting a bit worried, my prenatal teacher told us that Asian women shld only gain 10 -13 kg...... and me without trying very hard, i have already reached the max and there are 2 more months to go... how?!? Despite feeling down abt this, i still went Boon Thiong Kee for chicken rice during dinner... yummy.... hahahaaaa...... no wonder Men dun get it! ... haahaaa....

Another depressing news today is that my princess havent turned to be engaged yet. My gynae is a bit concerned. And he mentioned that if she dun turn in 2 weeks' time (my next visit), we prob have to schedule for a c-section. After hearing this, i was quite upset. Cos' i was all prepared for a natural birth (with the help of epidural, of cos). I even went for my yoga class and practise 10min of yoga every morning including the Kegel exercises diligently. And was really excited abt having contractions and waterbag break (signs of labour) in unexpected moments. Christine (my sister) asked me whether want to consider Malay massage cos some masseurs claim that they are able to move breech-position babies. But after hearing an experience from my colleague, i decided not. She had a Cesarean birth for her gal. Reason being baby not engaged too. And luckily she did cos' when the gynae opened up, they found the umbilical cord around the baby's neck. If she has insisted on natural, her baby may have been strangled!!... so i figured, "Let's nature takes it course" If she doesnt want to be engaged, just be it......if she eventually move down, it will be her wish.... me praying hard that all is well....

Here's a picture of today's scan. I have to warn you guys... it's not clear at all and it's showing only a foot, an ankle and a calve.... naughty, naughty baby!!!
