Wow, it's now week 36 + 1 day. From next Friday onwards, it will be no problem for Lucas to come to the world. I had a ultrasound checkup at Dianaecho because Dr Mao was afraid that the baby might have some stomach problem. Luckily, everything is confirmed to be perfectly fine. Contrary to what Dr. Mao said about baby's weight one week ago (she said that Lucas was underweight), doctor at Dianaecho told me that our baby is actually quite big, 2.8-2.9 kg, on the high end of the weight limit. I was also told that chinese women normally make big babies. Well, don't know who to believe. In any case, baby is in good health. Whether he is several hundred grams more or less is of little significance. Hmm, I wish that he wouldn't get too big. I am a bit afraid of having to tear my perine muscles or have a caesarian.
I am weighted at 61.7kg, quite normal. I feel very well since last week, full of energy. I feel like doing a lot of things, but still have to be careful not to overdo it. It's still one week too early for Lucas to be born now.
After discussion with Gisela, I am now concerned about the distance between home and Grangettes. Being transported in the car for one and half hour during labor contraction will be very very painful. Maybe I will ask Victoria whether I can stay at her place one week before due date.
Nice weather finally arrives. Stephane and I went to Schilliger today and bought a bunch of nice flowers. We seem to spend a lot on plants. But we do enjoy gardening very much. It will be fun to do it together with Lucas when he is bigger.
