its seven thirty in the evening and i am waiting for dinner to be ready, home made pizza... no wonder my diet plan doesnt work.... ever notice that the word "diet" starts with DIE??... hmmm........
my old man handed me this piece of paper last night, he has finally decided on juniors name.. its gonna be Jayden Chua Ren Jie, for the life of me, i have no idea what that four string of chinese charaters meant but according to him, it actually contains all the best things in the world, he also reckons that if you read from left to right, you would get Jayden Chua and if you read from right to left, you would get JieRen Chua... cool... how many guys out there can actually say that their mandrain name comes with a chinese poem?
we were at the doc last thus, it was week 34... we were the fourth couple in the waiting room, and i was reading some super out-dated magazine, you would think that with the money they make, they should at least have the decency to keep the magzine updated... no luck here...
we were in the docs room before long... the doc was explaining to us that we are very close to the due date and usually a check would be done to make sure that theres no risk of infection in the birth canal, he mentioned something about a test and got the nurse to ready THE WIFE while he proceeded to put on rubber gloves... usually when a doc puts on rubber gloves or for that matter, when anyone snaps on a pair of rubber gloves, you know it aint gonna be pretty..... the test was simple enough, just a swap and it was over.... and than it was back to the usual scanning
doc: hmmm.. everything looks okay, but his head is a little big though... the body is of week 34 and the head is of week 37.
me: should i be worried?
doc: well, theres really nothing you can do about it... we cant really see his face yet, hes got it up against the wall here... so now he has turned around.. his head is down here and his feets are up here....
me: should i be worried about the head thing?
doc: hmmm... dont worry, it shouldnt get too big that he cant come out the normal way... hes about 2.8 kgs now....
back at his table.... the doc was taking some data from the computer and drawing on some chart on his medical report...
doc: you see, his head is in the 90s percentile while his body is in the 70s percentile..
me:should i be worry about his head?
doc: theres really nothing we can do about it now, what have you been feeding him?
THE WIFE: eh, isnt it suppose to be what is he drawing from me?
doc: yah, you are right, theres nothing you can eat to really affect his growth. it all depends on what he draws from you... okay, see you in two weeks time and hopefully, we can see his face...if not, you are going to see him in few few weeks time anyway.
with that, we said our thank yous and good-byes... its a two week wait till we can get another scan at junior again... now i am starting to call him big head... not many guys can actually go around and proudly tell people that their junior have a big head... hmmmm....
