We went to have check up yesterday. It is amazing that Little T has a human shape now. We can cleary see the 2 hands and 2 legs and the head. The doctor has also measued the thickness of the neck sink and everything is normal. The doctor said that baby seems to be quite active who waves hands and legs to say hi to us and Jacob. Leonard recall that he didn't see Jacob move like this last time. Honestly, Jacob was really gentle in when he was in my tummy, not much movement. Well, Leonard see a tiny little thing and wonder if the baby is a boy but the doctor said that it could also be the shape of the girl part and therefore is not very sure yet. He said that it will be more sure in next month. The doctor said that in general the baby growth very well (about 5 cm) except that my sugar level is a bit high and I have gained 5 lbs in 1 month!!! Have to be careful. In addition, we have done a blookd test as well and we will know the result on Monday, hope that everything is fine like last time.
BTW, when we were waiting at the reception area. Jacob played very happily with a baby, he kept following the baby and talk to the baby (just like the same way as what we do to him). Hope that he and the baby will get alone happily the same way. Now, Jacob already learned that there is a baby with me. Most usually, he is gentle and he will say don't sit on the baby. But when he get sleepy, he will get naughty and try to push his hand to my tummy saying don't push at the same time. His purpose is to look at my angry face. Well, it will be a big challenge to us how to handle their relationship and hope that we can handle it well.
