Marven's Progress.....

2008-09-11T22:30:00.000-07:00

hi hi all,

Sorry for not having the time to update in this blog as lately we have been real busy with lots of stuffs.

Well, I will try to update this blog at least once or twice a month on Marven's progress.

Basically, this boy extremely love THE WHEELS OF THE BUS, and basically every morning the moment he wakes up and open his eyes,...he will ask for the bus!

My Marven is no longer a baby, he's grown to a big boy now!

He has his own thinkings, he has his likes and dislikes, he wants to walk by himself (don't want to be hold), he knows how to reject and accept, he knows how to fight for his toys and immediately run for his life when Marvic starts to go after him to snatch the toys, etc etc.

Lately, he starts to talk alot!
I must say I'm so proud of him! He's such a cutie!

Words now come from him are :
1. Saur (dinosaur)
2. tong-tong (pain)
3. gu (buttock = pi-gu)
4. door (then he will go and take keys and want to open the door)
5. go go
6. ne ne (milk)
7. mum-mum (eat...YES! he love to eat alot)
8. chou-chou (smelly)
9. kiss kiss
10. car car
11. dog dog
12. bird bird
13. plane
14. sssss (= bus)
15. shoe shoe

Oh Yes! He now knows his body parts as well.....
he knows where's his head, hair, hand, fingers, leg, toes, eyes, mouth, nose, ear.

That's it for now....and i will come back here to update more soon.

take care :)

New House

Mummy~
We will be officially starting our house renovation on 30th July 2008.

I M WALKING!

2008-07-29T01:48:00.001-07:00

On 20th July 2008.

Mummy~ today, was out doing grocery and Marven's home with maid, MIL, gor-gor & Daddy.

He has been walking with the help / support of holding onto someone's hand for the past more then 1mth.

Today, while holding onto MIL's hand......he just let go of her hand and walk!!!!!

Amazing!!!! Immediately, MIL called me and tell me the news!

And, guess my baby is too excited that he now walks and thus he does not want to go to bed even at 10pm! He's basically been traneformed to be our "house insepctor" cos he walks to every corner of the house and inspect! Oh My!

I had a hard time coaxing him to bed and he only finally fall asleep on my bed at close to 12am!

I will upload some of his photos here soon.

Hey friends,
Sorry for the late updates & post of more pix.....as Mum has been super busy since my arrival.

Here are some of the pix of me,.....during my stays in hospital.

House = SOLD!

2007-11-11T21:20:00.000-08:00

Mummy ~ Oh yah,..latest updates.

We have recently sold our current 5-room flat in SK. Expected the first appointment will be sometime on 3rd week of Dec.....it depends on how soon the buyer submits the *Exercise to Purchase*, as now he is pending for his loan approval though.

Well, he has placed a deposit of $1000 and if in any event that he did not go ahead to exercise the purchase, then we will forfeit the deposit....*grin*

Alot of people commented that we had a good deal for my house, which we closed the deal at a highest price in SK......and after I checked the HDB website for the latest resale transactions, and YES, is HIGHEST!!!!

hmm.....I can say that we are having a mixed feeling about selling the house.....abit reluctant and can't bear to move as the unit is real exclusive and nice environment,....but, the price is too good to give it a miss!!!!!

Anyway, we will still proceed and go ahead with the sale and will temporary be moving in to stay with Max's parents while waiting for the market to soften down before we make our next property purchse...... ;)

For all those out there.......I will be having a garage sales for all my household stuffs, furnitures, electrical appliances, etc etc......will upload the details in this blog once decided on the sales..... :D

Heart Scan postpone AGAIN.......

2007-11-11T21:18:00.000-08:00

Just as Mum & Dad are looking forward to my heart scan on the 14th Nov (which was postponed from 26th Oct), then I'm down with cough and running nose!!!!

Dad brought me to Dr Lim's clinic this morning and I was there again on the nebiliser!!!!!

After Mum checked with Dr Lim, he would want my appointment to be delayed for another 2 weeks!!!!

Now, the appointment has been fixed on 4th Dec 2007!!!

Kick kick cough & flu bugs away away far far away......................

My Weight....My Progress

2007-10-29T18:29:00.000-07:00

I was down with very bad flu & cough for the past 1 week, that explains why my heart-scan has to be re-scheduled till mid Nov07.

It was so bad that mummy has to rush me to Mt. A and have to see my PD, Dr Lim, of Kinders Clinic.

When we reach the clinic, the nurse put me on the weight scale for a check on my weight....wooo, I'm now at 7.2kg at the tender age of 5.75mths old! That's not too bad as I started off with low weight birth.

As mummy has started to let me go on semi-solid when i was 4.5mths old,...she started with some cereals....(but I don't like it!) I'd fuss alot when mum or maid gives me the cereal.

Lately, when I hit 5.5mths old,....mum has decided to cook some baby porriage for me to try it out!

WOW! YUMMY! I really enjoyed and love the porriage so much that I can finish 1.5 bowls of feed! So, now I'm on 2 feeds per day on porriage and the in-between are the milk!

I shall report here again on my weight gain on mid Nov07.

Keep a close look out here.

cheers

Ventricular Septal Defect

2007-10-24T00:23:00.000-07:00

Ventricular Septal Defect
A ventricular septal defect (VSD) is a hole in the part of the septum that separates the ventricles, the lower chambers of the heart. The hole allows oxygen-rich blood to flow from the left ventricle across the heart into the right ventricle instead of flowing up into the aorta and out to the body as it should.

Cross-Section of a Normal Heart and a Heart With Ventricular Septal Defect

Figure A shows the normal structure and blood flow in the interior of the heart. Figure B shows two common locations for a ventricular septal defect. The defect allows oxygen-rich blood from the left ventricle to mix with oxygen-poor blood in the right ventricle.

An infant born with a VSD may have a single hole or more than one hole in the wall that separates the two ventricles. The defect also may occur by itself or with other congenital heart defects.

Doctors classify VSDs based on the:

Size of the defect.
Location of the defect.
Number of defects.
Presence or absence of a ventricular septal aneurysm—a thin flap of tissue on the septum. This tissue is harmless and can help a VSD close on its own.
VSDs can be small or large. A small VSD doesn’t cause problems and may often close on its own. Because small VSDs allow only a small amount of blood to flow between the ventricles, they’re sometimes called restrictive VSDs. Small VSDs don’t cause any symptoms.

Medium VSDs are less likely than small defects to close on their own. They may require surgery to close and may cause symptoms during infancy and childhood.

Large VSDs allow a large amount of blood to flow from the left ventricle to the right ventricle and are sometimes called nonrestrictive VSDs. A large VSD is less likely to close completely on its own, but it may get smaller over time. Large VSDs often cause symptoms in infants and children, and surgery is usually needed to close them.

VSDs are found in different parts of the septum.

Membranous VSDs are located near the heart valves. They can close at any time.
Muscular VSDs are found in the lower part of the septum. They’re surrounded by muscle, and most close on their own during early childhood.
Inlet VSDs are located close to where blood enters the ventricles. They’re less common than membranous and muscular VSDs.
Outlet VSDs are found in the part of the ventricle where the blood leaves the heart. This is the rarest type of VSD.

My Heart Condition

2007-10-24T00:07:00.000-07:00

Below is a simple structure of how our hearts works.
As my heart has a hole on the right side, which is the oxygen rich-blood back-flow to the left side.

Read below for the information of my condition.
***********************************
A hole in the heart (also called an atrial septal defect (ASD) or ventricular septal defect (VSD)) is a type of simple congenital (kon-JEN-i-tal) heart defect. This is a problem with the heart's structure that's present at birth. Congenital heart defects change the normal flow of blood through the heart.

Your heart has two sides, separated by an inner wall called the septum. With each heartbeat, the right side of the heart receives oxygen-poor blood from the body and pumps it to the lungs. The left side of the heart receives oxygen-rich blood from the lungs and pumps it to the body. The septum prevents mixing of blood between the two sides of the heart.

Some babies are born with a hole in the upper or lower septum. A hole in the septum between the heart's upper two chambers (the atria, pronounced AY-tree-uh) is an ASD. A hole in the septum between the heart's lower two chambers (the ventricles, pronounced VEN-trih-kuls) is a VSD.

A hole in the septum can allow blood to pass from the left side of the heart to the right side. This means that oxygen-rich blood can mix with oxygen-poor blood, causing the oxygen-rich blood to be pumped to the lungs a second time.

Over the past few decades, the diagnosis and treatment of ASDs and VSDs have greatly improved. As a result, a child with a simple heart defect can grow to adulthood and live a normal, active, and productive life because his or her heart defect closes on its own or has been repaired.

**************************************

My appointment supposed to be fixed on the 26th October, but due to I'm currently down with flu and cough, thus the specialist has deferred my heart scan till the 14th November.

Pray hard that the hole has closes up!!!!!

3rd Month Vaccin

2007-08-07T01:09:00.000-07:00

2nd August 2007.

Mum brought me for my 3rd Month vaccin. (5-in-1)

Well, mum was worried of me getting fever from the jab, thus gave me 1 dose of the paracetomol b4 we head to the clinic.

Today, I weigh at 5.5kg and Dr says I'm in good growth.

Everything's still fine and I still feel ok. But, developed fever in the night!!!!

Maid called Mum and told her my temp and I was immediately given another dose of paracetomol. Good thing, the fever subsides on the next day.

cheers

Heart Screen

2007-07-07T01:02:00.000-07:00

Heart Screen on 29th June 2007.

Daddy took some hours off from work and drove us to the clinic.
After a long 2 hours wait at the clinic, it's finally my turn.

Mum carried me and went to the room.

Dr Anthony starts to open the envelope (from Dr Lim) and follow to check on me. Then, he told mum to put on the bed next to the machine. Mum and Dad was beside me and there Dr Anthony starts the heart scan.

After about 15mins, finally can get the result.

ya, there's a small hole on my heart (right side). The hole is about 3mm and Dr Anthony assures Mum & Dad that this is not dangerous and the hole should close up by itself within few months time. However, my next heart scan has been scheduled on Oct.

Mum is worried sick and been praying that the hole closes by itself by the next scan.

2nd Month Vaccination

2007-07-07T00:54:00.000-07:00

Mummy brought me for the 2nd Month Jab on 22nd June 2007, Friday.

We went back to Dr Lim's clinic at Mt A.

As usual, mum went to register and maid was carrying me while waiting for my turn. Shortly after, the nurse asked mum to put me down on the weighing machine and yes, I'm now weigh at 4.4kg. That's a good weight gain.

Not too long after that, Dr Lim called us to go into the room. As usual, he does check on me.....making sure i'm not down with jaundice and started listening to my lung, etc etc. After some hearing, he paused and listen with full concentration!

Mum felt unease and worried.

Waited for about 5-10mins, then Dr Lim confirmed and started talking to mum.

He suspect there might have a small hole on my heart cos there's some noise and leaking sound. He refered me to a heart specialist and recommended to go and do a heart screen.

Mum was worried sick!!! Immediately, she picked up her mobile and called daddy, who was overseas. And mum cried!!!!

poor mum....I'll be fine!!! Don't worry!!!

I LOVE YOU MUMMY!!!!

Progress

2007-05-05T07:49:00.000-07:00

Today, 5th May 07, Mummy has discharged from hospital, but I still need to stay in for at least another 4more days.

Dr Lim has done another X-Ray for me and has confirmed that the air pockets in my left lung has been cleared and I do not need to have the oxygen anymore. I am now 100% on my own.

PHEW!!! That's a great relief for Mum & Dad.

Today, Dr Lim has increased my feeds till 20ml, and will increase to 30ml by tomorrow. He has told Mum that he targets to increase my feeds till ard 50-60ml before I can be discharged and he estimates that to be sometime mid next week.

I shall keep all of you updated and shall post my most handsome pix here on the day I discharge.

See you around here soon and look out for my pix!!!!

cheers

Feedings today

2007-05-01T20:24:00.000-07:00

Today Dr Lim started the milk feeds on me. Started with 5ml of Enfaclac, while Mummy trying to express out the BM.

I am doing fine and sucks well. This is a good sign....cos I know how to suckle and swallows.

Hope to increase my feeds to 10ml later and looking at discahrge to go home with Mummy over the wkends.

Keep a look out of my latest update.

Mummy in Hospital....

2007-04-28T22:25:00.000-07:00

Here's a pix of mummy took in hospital.....heehee :D

Well, i think mum has no chance to go to salon for her hair, nail bar for her nails, for facial....(as her original plan),....before delivering me!!!!

Admitted on 27th April 2007

2007-04-28T22:17:00.000-07:00

Mummy ~ Started contractions on 26th April at ard 9pm.....took a Ventolin pills and decided to rest and monitor further. Unable to sleep the whole nite......tahan till 3am, pain was unbearable....decided to wake Hubby up and snd me to hospital.

When arrived, nurses did CTG and confirmed contractions at every 2mins interval! OUCH! Lucky waterbag not burst yet,....cervix not yet dilate also. Immediately, Dr Lee ordered to give me the drip to control the contractions and also to give me the jab for the premature birth. MOST PAINFUL jab in my life!

Well,....contractions comes on and off,....and I have to continue to be on drip to monitor and also to prolong at least 1-2weeks before Dr Lee decides to do c-sec bring out Marven.

So, as of today......I am still in hospital.....Delivery Suite.....*sigh*

History repeats again......and I'm on the same bed when I was admitted for Marvic's premature birth in year 2005!!!

Both Marvic and Marven are so eager to come out so early to see the world,.....and makes Daddy & Mummy bankrupt!!!!

Well, I shall update again... ;)

Updates on Check-Up

2007-04-26T06:15:00.000-07:00

Today, 26th April 2007, Mummy went for check-up and has fixed / confirmed the date for my arrival!!!!

I weigh at 2.426kg today,......at gestation wk34. Dr Lee was very happy with my current weight and has KIV his availability on the date that Mum has decided.

The date shall be 25-05-2007. By estimate, I should weigh above 3kg when I make my arrival into this beautiful world!

Look out and check-out for my next updates.... ;)

Check-Up & Progress

2007-04-12T05:56:00.000-07:00

Today, 12th April 2007, Mummy went for check-up.

I weigh at 2kg today, the size of 33wks gestation size.....even though I should only be at wk31 by date.

Mummy has told Dr Lee that she has decided to choose 20th May 2007 for my birth via c-sec....but, Dr Lee is reluctant to perform on that date as I'll only be ard wk37...he only agrees to perform the ops after wk38.

Well, anyway Mum will be seeing Dr Lee again in 2wks time,.....then Dr Lee will monitor my size and weight before he agrees on which date for my delivery.

Stay tune and Mummy shall report my latest update soon.

cheers

My Size & Weight.....

2007-04-01T19:48:00.000-07:00

Mummy starts to feel pain pain at cervic area.....and thus, Daddy brought her to see Dr Lee on Saturday, 31st March.

Dr Lee checked and scanned.....then was smiling and telling Mum that I am a BIG SIZE baby....trying to drill in to get myself engaged....that's why Mum feels pain pain.

Now, no doubt I'm only abt 30wks......but, my size is abt 32-33wks.....and i weigh at 1.6kg now!

Dr Lee will be seeing Mum again in 2wks time....and he will schedule the check-up every forthnightly.

So, just sit back and wait for my latest update again on 13th April......the next scheduled check-up!!!

Backache...Sleepless Nites...

2007-03-26T18:32:00.000-07:00

Poor Mummy has been having backaches & sleeples nites lately......she has to resort to place a small pillow at her back when seated or lying on bed,......and then, will watch TV till eyes really really tired,.....quickly OFF the TV and close her eyes..... :(

sometimes she's successful, but sometimes fails her mission in trying to get a good sleep!!!

Poor Mummy!!!

Endure for another 6-7weeks.

My FIRST Appearance

on 2nd Oct, is Daddy's birthday!
And I made and confirmed my FIRST appearance to Daddy and Mummy on 2nd Oct 2006.
Mummy felt uncomfy and had missed her menses, thus did home pregnancy test and it shows a very very faint "+" on it. To feel more assured, she decided to make a trip to Dr Lee's clinic to check for confirmation.

There, she did the usual urine test and results came almost abt 5-10mins later. It also shows a faint "+", and Dr Lee did a scan. There, Dr Lee has confirmed Mummy is having ME inside her tummy and was immediately prescribed with Folic Acid.

This is the BEST BIRTHDAY pressie for Daddy!!!!
