At last, I have something to do to kill time. Aside of course from the fact that I am counting every blessed day until our first baby will be born. My husband and I will be having a baby girl. The first apo from both sides. As they say, girls are closer to their dads. I can attest to that. Eventhough Yayi (our daughter’s nickname) is still inside my womb, she responds to her Papaw’s whispers, caresses and kisses. From time to time my husband will kiss my tummy while lovingly talks to his baby inside. Yayi responds by kicking and moving. I know these are just typical movements of a baby in the womb, but such movements mean a lot to my husband and to me. For us, it means Yayi hears and understands us. She can feel how much we love her, how much we are excited for her coming, how much she completes our life. I am already in my 27th week, 9-10 weeks more to go. I had my 5th ultrasound two days ago. Our baby is doing well. The doctor said she has long fingers. Looks like Yayi will be tall like her Papaw. As the procedure takes place, she covers her face with her hand. She did the same gesture during our 4th ultrasound. “Shy-type” my husband said. We planned to do a 4D ultrasound, but for the element of surprise we decided not to. We know that our baby will come out to be beautiful, bouncing,healthy and normal. With all the prayers from those waiting for our baby, we are sure God will take care of our baby.
