小人兒記事 – 20110221

Today is a lucky day for me!!!! ^_^ I met soooooo many nice and helpful doctors!

Mum accompanied me to the hospital for the first time and she was sooooo shocked about the large number of mainland pregnant women there. (But frankly, that hospital is one of those with less mainlanders already!!!) Since she did not go into the clinic room with me, she discovered soooooo many "funny" things about those mainlanders.

This is my second time to have a structure scan @public hospital. It was so fast; no need to wait at all. The doctor performing the scan was very young and absolutely nice! She was supposed to check the heart only but she did examine all other organs as well. She paid so much patience to wait for Burger changing position.

At first, Burger was still in Child Pose!!!! Oh my baby, why do you love to stick to the plecenta so much? Instead of kicking me out of the examination room for another 15 minutes, the doctor said she could check out other things (which she was not supposed to do!!!) She examined the size of Burger. She checked the Brain and head size and also the belly size. Then she came back to examine the heart. She tried to tap Burger with the "scanner" and asked her to move in a very gentle voice. Miracally, Burger did change position!!!! Burger hasn't been like that before! The doctor could see quite clearly the heart and the blood movement this time. She said everything is alright. Then she offered to examine other organs as well. She said, 'This would probably be the last ultrasonic scan before your delivery, so let's have other organs checked as well though they are already confirmed all okay last time." Since the doctor was sooooo nice, I asked the doctor if she knows Burger's gender.

She then examined the area very carefully and said "no protruding thing"! (Haha~ same as what Dr Lam told me) She then continued to check the kidneys, stomach, etc. and I thought it was the end, she came to check the gender AGAIN!!!! After a while, she said "YES! SHE is very healthy". What a subtle way in telling me the good news! ^_^

Hello! My Baby Girl... You're named Trudy after your mom's (i.e. my) German name Getrude! ^_^ But I'll still call you Burger.
