I'm forever grateful for the gift of life the Father has created in me through my union with Chong. A baby is indeed a bundle of joy, long even before it is born, people are congratulating us and sending us blessings. We are delighted to have a small family unit starting out very soon this June, which also marks our 4th year wedding anniversary, more celebrations to follow in years to come.

8 months pregnant

I'm 8 months pregnant now!

How time flies, before I know it, my baby will be born. Now, I can say, I simply can't wait for THE day when little boy is born to the world, but would that also mean 'spell trouble'? Certainly, everyone longs for a bundle of JOY, and nothing else, but happiness, in most cases, worries and troubles accompany.

Don't exactly know what to expect or what to think of about the little one. We have yet thought of suitable chinese name, the English one, got it a long time ago ... Nathan Sin, he will be called. Coicidentally, that's the name of our pastor's son too, and he is Nathan Sim, the only difference of an alphabet, well, doesn't matter.

We're still praying and hoping that the placenta would move to a more favourable position, such as away from the cervic door. As of now, the inevitable is casearean, quite a scarry idea, most people would say the 'natural' way would be the most ideal and best, yet, nowadays, there are moms who would opt for the surgery instead due to labour pains and possible vaginal birth complications thereafter. But logically speaking, why would there be more worries, going through the natural way is seemingly the better option than a surgery, isn't it so?

Whatever it is, we still give thanks to God for the gift of life born to us, well, not yet to the world's knowledge. We can see him move so vigorously every night, and can even feel him from inside (myself) only, and outside, from the hubby's point of view. He was so amazed last night having seen Nathan move so much! Now that baby is growing bigger, which means less space for him in the tummy, the movements are more prominent and felt. I could even eat my dinner properly yesterday too, cos he was moving so much, generally a very active baby, thanks to God for that, cos moving is better than not, right?

The experience of motherhood , like many would say, a joy indescribable, and beyond words can utter. The amazing creation and plan of God, forming life in another's life. A wonderful priviledge and honour to be able to bear a child in us - women only.

I continue to bow my heart prayerfully in deep gratitude to my saviour and lord Jesus Christ for giving me strength, and endurance through the next 8 weeks or less, till I have my new born in my arms.
