xuan - our babies are the same pattern de! mysterious and shy! hahaha. but at least your gynae gave some clues like dont buy blue. my gynae never say much...i asked if its a boy, usually can confirm early right..gynae only say boys more obvious. my gynae v.play-safe de...and he say he will usually take a pic of the part for the parents so i guess he just dont want to commit to anything now. nw just pray and hope 4 weeks later baby can be in a better position! meanwhile, all the baby clothes i bought are neutral colours (orange, green, white, grey, brown, colour, purple..). will be buying the cot etc after CNY liaos..no time to wait for bb to open legs. hahah
jill - good luck!! may your baby be guai guai and in the best position!!
fabbie: yah lors, 1 visit to gynae can easily cost $200/300...and somemore just to go see gender like v.waste money. and not 100% confirm will get to see gender, thats the worse thing!haha. detailed scan, doc cant see the part lehs. maybe my bb's legs perpetually crossed at 1 angle so cant see. anyway, just hope bb is safe and healthy. boy/girl, i think me and hb already leave it to fate liaos. haha.
re: water retention
my colleague told me it was a doc who told her eating strawberries will help. it also helps with cramps. not sure how effective it is..but for those who like strawberries, can try.
re: baby movement
somehow my bb's movements still feel pretty much the same, not any stronger or more frequent. i must lift up my shirt and look closely then can see the waves. am hoping to see more of the waves...esp for my hb coz thats the only time he can bond with bb.
