Update @ 31+ weeks

Went for my ob/gyn visit on Thursday. The little guy is growing well and now weighs 1.8kg. He is also moving actively, sometimes to the extent I felt uncomfortable. But I am thankful to God for these movements as they meant everything is fine with the little one.

For this birth, I have prepared a birth plan. Showed it to my gynae and got him to agree and sign off on it. Am glad I finally got this done. For Sarah's birth, I was quite ignorant of what to expect during the birth process, so everything was done accordingly to the nurses and midwives, which meant typical hospital protocol, which may not be all that necessary and comfortable for the labouring mommy. After Sarah was born, I read up more and also learnt a lot from other more experienced mommies. So for this birth, there are certain procedures I wish to avoid, and certain things I want to be done my way. I am glad my gynae is fully supportive of a natural birth and is open to different birthing processes.
