Before we left for our holiday in Seoul last week, we made a doctor appointment for Monday, 23 May. That is the first appointment available for the week. However on late Sunday, the hospital called and said that the doctor won’t be available and our appointment was delayed until Wednesday, 25 May. Much to our disappointment and my worry because I really wanted to know if the baby’s fine after our trip.

 

Then I opened my blog, looking for this particular post about when I first felt Nathan living inside me. That was during week 19 and there were pictures from the USG dated 7 March 2014 and Nathan was 18w4d. I realized that my appointment was rescheduled to when baby no. 2 is exactly 18w4d. Coincidence? I think it’s destined to be.

Today we went for our appointment, meeting our baby no. 2 who’s growing healthy and well. At this stage, baby no. 2 is slightly lighter than N. Our obgyn said that he’s 70% sure of the gender. I actually think that he’s 100% sure but to avoid disappointment, he told us to wait for another month. Oh well…

Regardless of the gender guessing game, I’m so glad that it’s safe and well. I’m looking forward to feel more kicks from baby no. 2 as it has started to introduce itself since yesterday. It seemed to understand my worry that it tried to tell me, “Don’t worry Mami, I’m here…”
