Still Waiting..

Greg dozed off at home yesterday at about 2pm and it was raining cats and dogs. I decided to go for my gynae appointment at 2+pm without him. I did tell Greg in the morning that I would be going to see doctor and he could follow me if he's not napping. Anyway, I instructed Yanti to give me a ring when Greg woke up, and hurriedly I dashed off to KKH. Had my CTG done and my contractions were found to be erratic still. Gynae did a vaginal examination and my cervix has only dilated 1.5cm. Aiyo, 0.5cm more from last week. The progress seemed extremely slow. When I returned home, Greg had woken up already and was playing the Lego blocks with Yanti.

Greg: Mummy, you saw doctor at the hospital already?
Me: Yup. Why?
Greg: The doctor never take didi out yet? (To mentally prepare Greg, I told him a few days ago that I have to go hospital one day to "take didi out" and I have to stay in the hospital for a few days).
Me: No. Didi doesn't want to come out yet.
Greg: Why? The doctor is naughty?
Me: Har? Doctor naughty? What do you mean?
Greg: If doctor gives didi a sweet, didi may want to come out you know...
Me: (laughed out loud) Greggie, I don't think didi knows how to eat sweet yet.
Greg: Ohhh... how about I ask didi to come out?
Me: ok... you can try...
Greg: (with his eye brows knitted and arms crossed, looking at my tummy) Didi, you better come out fast!
Me: Why you talk so angrily to didi?
Greg: Oooh... (bent forward to talk to my tummy softly)... didi, can you please come out? I have sweet for you.
Me: Haha.. why do you want didi to come out now?
Greg: I want to hold didi's hand you know.. very nice one.
Well, I am sharing this conversation between Greg and I with you because I thought he's an amazingly sweet boy. =) Hope he and his didi will get along fine in future.

I had some blood discharge in evening yesterday and some cramps. They went off in the night and all was well till this morning when I started bleeding again. I am really unsure if they are caused by the gynae examination or it's the "show". Anyway, I guess I have to keep monitoring the symptoms... I am just concerned about rushing to the hospital too late and had to give birth to the baby in the car/ cab, and worse...at the void deck! Aiyo...or maybe I am thinking too much already... *keeping my fingers crossed and hoping all goes well*
