T at 20-21 weeks

We went for a detailed scan when we were back in singapore. I strongly recommend Dr Gordon Lim at Gleneagles if u're looking for a gynae, he was extremely attentive, gentle, and he answers questions via the phone even before i became his client.

Anyway, so everything with T is going great, praise god. The vital organs, the limbs, the external organs... I've also put T on very expensive DHA so his brain will develop and he'll grow up to be clever like his parents.

A note to mothers with allergies- it's possible tht u may pass on ur allergies to ur child, sometimes the allergies may manifest differently as yours and it could be much worse. The doctor's advice is to take a certain kind of probiotic called Lacto GG towards the end of the pregnancy and during breastfeeding. It'll introduce good bacteria into the child's system that can fight against allergies. it's pricey but considering how i had the whole shebang of allergy ailments as a child and an adult, it's worth it. Of course if u don't have allergies, good for u!

Anyway here's our latest scan. Dr Gordon Lim warned us before showing the 4D scan tht the baby looks more like an alien then a baby. I tend to agree. haha.

Look like who look like who??

I hope T doesn't hate me for showing off his privates.

Congrats that all is well with your little man! Ooo, that is a very clear scan! This is the special 4D type of scan right? My detailed scan definitely wasn't like that. I have Gordon Lim's book on pregnancy - I found it an informative read esp for a 1st time mum-to-be. I'm now also on expensive DHA. Hahaha. Not sure if my gynae will prescribe Lacto GG later on though.

But I am amazed - you can see his face before he's even out of your tummy!

corsage> if u no allergies then no need lacto GG la. i've got the full blown package- asthma, sinus, eczema. and yes this is the super clear type. but i can tell u we paid alot for it, more than wht the forum mothers quoted. heart pain lor.

Hobomobo> by KKB do u mean LJ? can see la. the thing in between his legs tht looks like a giant screw.
