39 weeks and 5 days

2 more days to go before edd and i am still not showing signs of real labour other than the irregular contractions which comes hard and strong at times.

Baby has been moving regularly and violently. I was placed on the ctg each week to monitor heartbeat and contractions. So far the baby is well, water level is adequate and there is no urgent need to induce him. However, once passed due, gynae may recommend artificial induction which had its associated risk. Take for instance if dilation stops mid way then there would be a need for her to perform a c-section. Both chris and i dont like the idea of early induction and would rather wait if we can.

Now i am moving more to induce him naturally. Hopefully the contractions would come soon!

Went to rachel's place today and shopped for a couple of hours. Below are photos of us basking in the company of natalie :)











She saw a passerby holding on to an umbrella and insisted on doing the same.


















Sweetie with big momma!
