28 weeks.. Welcome Third Trimester...

18th Sept. 2018

10am.. Went to the hospital for our regular checkup.. Since the last scan was very good and baby was showing 2 week ahead growth.... As usual i was excited to see my baby surprise me with amazing growth and weight this week too..

Today was one of those days when we had to wait the longest for our appointment.. meanwhile me n my surrogate were chatting about her health which is great btw.. and then again i tried to touch her belly and again.. felt nothing.. Today i got really really disappointed.. what the hell !! I just wanna feel my baby once... why is he not responding when i touch..

I guess my feelings were pretty evident on my face.. so my surrogate took me inside a waiting room and lifted her kurta while lying down on the bed and told me to carefully look at her belly.. She then tapped her belly a few times.. and there.. i saw it.. i saw the kick !!! Yay.. finally.. i got something !😃

Later, we went in for our ultrasound and i was expecting a weight of atleast 1.5kgs.. since last time it was 1.2kgs.. The doctor went through all measurements.. checked the heartbeat...



And then she said.. 1.25kgs hai.. ! I was shocked.. no weight gain in 2 weeks..??😱 I got super super worried.. 😨

Later.... when we had a chat with the doctor, she said.. Don't worry.. this is absolutely normal.. in last appointment the baby showed more than expected growth.. so it is absolutely normal for the weight gain to slow down as long as all the measurements are increasing and there is a healthy heartbeat and baby movement.  

Well, she was right, i checked the measurements from the last appointment and the baby does show a growth in size..  I took a sigh of relief.. !! (Typical mummy wala tension chalu ho gaya hai😆)

Later we talked about my surrogate's admission to the hospital. She will be spending her last trimester in the hospital until delivery time.. This is done to avoid any emergencies and to take good care of the surrogate and my baby until delivery time. My doctor also told me that once the baby is delivered, i will have to stay in the hospital with the baby for a week or so.. 

I was like... Great !!! I am ready to stay anywhere with my baby...  Plus this way i will also get the hospital feel as if i have delivered my baby 😁!!! Hehe..
