It’s been ages not to write you, Champ.
Now, you’ve been staying in my
tummy for 30 weeks 7 days. Day by day, week by week, you grow tremendously.
You keep making much progress. I remember your first kick was on September 23,
2014 at 04.30 p.m. When I was watching afternoon TV show, I felt gentle kick inside
and spotted a tiny protruding tummy for seconds. I was so stunned that my jaw
dropped. It was the most breathtaking moment for me. I didn’t keep the joy for
myself. I texted your father, telling him that you just kicked me. He was so
excited too. He said he can’t wait to go home and felt your kick.
Here's the ultrasound result when you were 20 weeks old. Your Biparietal Diameter (BPD) measures about 4.75 cm and Abdominal Circumferential reaches 14.5 cm. You weigh 444 gram at the week. Hey, you're getting bigger, buddy. No wonder, you kept fluttering and flipping around. And this week had been the most excited one for us since for the first time we know the baby's sex. We're thrilled. We're happy. I can't wait to share with another family members about it, but your father wanted to keep it as a secret. He said, "Let's give them surprise. Don't tell them. Let them guess." And I listened to him. :)

Feeling your gentle movement is more than happiness. It's a gift for a woman. I can't stop thanking Allah for the abundant blessing.
Next visit was on October 11, 2014. We always felt excited with this monthly routine. We never missed it. Here you're when we peeked inside. Your BPD measures 5.84 cm with AC 19.1 cm. It means you've already weighed 636 gram. During the peeking, you moved around. You kicked. However, you can't do it freely due to the lack of amniotic fluid. The obgyn told me to drink more to give the baby more space. I felt bad. Guilty and regret struck me. I thought I didn't do the best for you, little champ. But we're so relieved when she summed up the conclusion saying that generally you're strong and healthy baby. Yeaaay. :)
On November 8, 2014 we saw you again. This time, everything was perfect. Your position, bones, heartbeat were great. You turned 28 week with BPD 7.19 cm and AC 23.6 cm, weighing 1205 gram. We're filled with excessive joy.Alhamdulillah.
The next visit, November 22, 2014 made us worried since you're not in a supposed-to-be position. The obgyn said I should do "senam sujud" for fifteen minutes after shalat to get you back on the right position. However, the position gave us benefit because it enabled us to see your genital very very clearly hehehee. Generally, everything was so fine. Our little champ weighed 1434 gram, BPD 7.41 cm and AC 25.6 cm.
Now, I regularly do "senam sujud" 3-4 times a day. It is a bit stiff for the first time, but I can deal with it for the next one. During the "ritual" I keep talking to you to help me to get you back "on the right track". I believe you listen to me and we're gonna do such an awesome job. Ohhh. I wish I could give you hi-5.
