Back in Kuching

Been back in Kch since Friday midnite, well, more like Saturday early morning. Spent 2 days with hubby at his sister's place with his nephews. Had good time. Actually just want to spend more time with hubby since we might not see each other again until the lil gal is ready to come out. Still trying to look for cheaper fair too so that hubby can come for a weekend visit in a week or two time. Of course this mean that poor Ginger will have to stay at the kernel again. Really hope that she likes the place better than the previous one.

Anyway, what baby and I done since hubby went back to KL? Monday, went to the policlinic at Kota Sentosa to try and get my blood test result that I did previously. Arrived there around 8.30am and my number is 169. Guess what number they were calling at that time?30+!!!!! So, I decided instead of waiting, went for my breakfast at seven mile Jollibee since baby is kicking and squirming for food.

Whenever hubby and I go there, we will have laksa and so that is what I had. Turn out that is not the laksa seller that we usually have. According to hubby, the usual one only opens in the evening. Sigh....

Next I went down to Kuching Specialist (KPJ) for my usual check up. When I arrived, the place was jammed packed with people and so damn stuffy and hot. Registered myself and went to see Dr Philip Kho but thye nurse informed me that there is around 10 people in front of me and most probably mean at least 1.5hours wait. (GAWD!) Anyway, seeing my distressed face, the nurse offer me to make an appointment for Tuesday afternoon at 2pm, less people at the time.

So, made my appointment and went home. Without much done for the day except help dad and bro to bring some supplies back to the house, went home defeated and ready to cook dinner.

Tuesday, dad truck broked down while they just about to leave for their outstation destination. So, I drove the Innova to pick them up (Dad, Mom and sis). We went for short errand while the truck is being repaired. Then around 10am, they left for wherever they going and I went to town to finish one more errand for dad.

Arrived at KPJ around 1.45pm and the clinic is still not open. The waiting area is semi full but damn hot and stuffy. Outside is raining and inside is like a steam room. Are they saving electricity by leaving the air con at 23 degrees???? Feels worse than GH okay!

Anyway, the nurse finally came at 2pm to open the door to the clinic. 5 minute later the doc open the door and call me in. Asked the prelim questions that all doctors ask when its your first visit to them and more since this is for obgyn. Doc abit abrupt especially when he was talking on the phone to someone (most probably some family member?) but his bedside manner is not too bad.

He got me on the examination bed to scan the baby. Doc confirmed baby is gal (again! hahaha) and she about 35week+ few days now. So, good progress. Everything is consistent and good. Baby moved alot but he still managed to catch baby's side face profile which I of course immediate took a photo of and sent to her daddy! :)

But I did get scolded though for not continuing my high blood medication because my blood pressure was 128/94. So, doc increase the dosage by 50mg and said that if in 2 weeks the blood pressure still stays this high, might want to discuss/ consider induce for both baby and my sake. Not sure if doc is trying to scare me to make sure that I take my medication but I been taking it very dilligently. Not skipping any dosage at all so far. I want to make sure the baby only comes when she is ready to come.

Anyway, was told to count number of times baby kick per day as well. Minimum 10 times starting 8am till night before I sleep. If by noon, baby has kicked more than 10 times, then I can stop counting for the day and start again tomorrow. If less than 10 per day, must go back to see him immediately the very next day. So far, baby is kicking and squirming up a storm. And I can see my tummy moved more obviously and often too.

Just really wish hubby is with me to witness this....
