Anomaly Scan 19 Weeks

We are almost halfway through baby....Week 19, close to 20 feels like we are almost there. I still hear stories of to-be-mother having trouble sleeping, indigestion and a lot of such issues. But here we are supporting each other. You growing inside me, I growing matured to be able to give you better life. I love you kid. 

So here is yet another scan...Anomaly Scan is what they call it. It shows that you are 301 gms. You look so much like a baby with all limbs in proportion to head and body. Your sensors are developing so I have started singing to you kid. I think our choice in music match a lot, however you don't enjoy much of classical as yet.




I lie down quietly at times in the morning, after your daddy leaves for work. And I can feel you in me. Like a tiny butterfly in my abdomen...

There you are, limbs that give me the feel of butterfly.....So cute and perfect. The Radiologist said you didn't like the rays of sonography and moved your hands over face. One healthy bundle of joy with cute little hands and legs. A strong spin developing. You know you are now size of a really bug Mango....:P 


Waiting for the next 4-D scan to feel you close to me......

Lots of love my child.

Nuchal translucency Scan

Baby, your daddy is home. He moved back to Pune to be able to see you grow in me.I have put on few kgs and you have bulged a bit. But daddy still feels i'm the same :P.

Your dada, nana & nani around now. All we talk about is you. Will you resemble me or daddy. What name will suite you the best. Everyone here has been waiting for you since long. Most expressive and happy is your dada. He already decided names but I won't tell you yet.

Nuchal translucency Scan is next and we are excited to see you again. It 12 weeks and 3 days. We could see your face and tiny limbs. Tiny sockets for eyes, nose and lips. You are shaping up, I wonder like me or your daddy. As we watched you in the monitor while the radiologist was scanning my tummy, I could see the joy in eyes of your papa. I'm sure his curious mind had 100s of questions, but he was watching you quietly. 

I take an extra pillow while sleeping, its very comforting. 

News was published

And this is how everyone reacted to hear about you. 

Daddy was the first one to know. He is not very expressive but his calling me multiple times that evening showed his reaction. Since he was not around when I took the test he had heaps of questions How the home pregnancy test works and if I followed the instructions as mentioned on the pack.

Your nanijee was super excited and acted as if she already knew. Nanajee reacted very much like our daddy. With all his concerns and satisfied.

Everyone else is already a mama, nana, nani, dada.... Its only your mausi who got this title with your news. She right away booked 2 books for me to learn and act upon while I carry you within. She also got annoyed for why I didn't inform her before he booked tickets for nana and nani to visit her.

I informed your mama and mani over phone. Mamajee, he told to take rest. There is a different kind of silence and calmness he has. You can feel his deep felt happiness whn you talk to him. Mami as she is, started with a huge list of instructions. What to do, what not to do, read this book, consult this to the doctor. All showed how much she cared.

When your daddy visited Pune, we informed Vijeta bua. Her first statement was, "congrats it has been long something so positive happened at home". She loves your daddy I could hear from her voice for how happy she is for him.

One of the days while talking to Mani phuphajee I told him about you. "Isn't it too early" he asked. Mani phupha is very charming & knowledgeable . You are going to have gala time with him. 

Your Dadajee....tears rolled out of his eyes as your nanajee told him over phone. He called me and asked to take care. Most intense it was. It felt like his prayers were answered. Yet another instance where he made me feel very special. By the way, he is the one who will pamper you the most and spoil you. :P

Weeks are longer

Daddy talks to me everyday after office and takes updates on you. He sounds excited. I keep nagging him to come back to Pune. He can have closure experience of you growing in me. I have still not caught hold of the fact that I have a soul within me.But, it does feel special to have a miracle in me my baby. I wonder for why does it takes 9 months for a baby to develop. Isn't it too long. It should take just 3 months or so. I feel bubbles in my stomach and a little butterfly moving inside me. Everyone says its too early to feel you, but I do. We are n 9th week and 4th week seem so long baby...... :-^  :-^
