22th weeks

Baby is the size of papaya!

Finally is time for the detailed trimester 2 scan!
But before the scan, the bad news are:
- I put on too much weight (12kg now!)
Im suppose to only put on 1-1.5kg per month
but last month i put on 3kg??
I blame the sudden craving of nutella and desserts
at least my friends tried to comfort me by telling me 
that they gained 21kg during pregnancy..
Anyway, i really need to go for a big diet after delivery...

- my urine sugar level is too high that i need to test my blood sugar
Seems like i am in high risk of gestional diabetes
i guess if confirmed, im not so afraid of the daily pricking of finger or med
but i know it will be so hard to reduce rice, bread, noodles, pasta...
all the carbos that i love :(

Anyway for the scan,
we were told to bring along a dvd to record the scan
but without the commentry, 
im unsure whether we will understand or enjoy it.
baby was cooperative or too active (moving alot)
it helps sometimes to find the parts required for the scan
except that she hide her gential area behind my belly button
that we cant double confirm is a girl, haha.

Everything is fine and she weighs about 500g.
I think dr mentioned that she has a big tummy, opps
Is nice that we even managed to get a cute 3d photo of her...


*Updated on 11/12*
Results back for blood and urine sugar level.
Urine sugar went down from 1.59 to 1.01
Blood sugar was 0.98 when the recommended is 0.92 max
so got a referral letter to follow up with the diabetes department
i guess i need start manage my diet before the appointment :(
