First of all, Dr. Loke had announced that Baby Tyler's head had engaged which translate in simple terms, it means 'anytime'. Seriously, this word is scary! Hundreds and thousands of questions swept through my mind.
Are we ready for this? Ready to be parents?
Have we bought all the stuffs we had to buy?
What happens if it's tomorrow? - which in this case is highly possible
How do I know when I am going into labour?
How does it feel to have contractions?
And would I be able to tell if it's just braxton hicks or I am indeed contracting?
And the list goes on... ...
I find it harder to keep myself calm as some of the labour symptoms gets stronger each day, such as nausea, diarrhea, cramps and feeling lesser of his movements in my belly. As this journey is about to come to an end while I proceed to a next presumably more difficult (challenging) phase, I would like to take a moment to recognize the things I would miss about this whole pregnancy.
1. His Movements
Getting the punched and kicks. A truly amazing experience anyone could have.
I will miss his frequent movements that cause waves to my belly after I had my meals and his tornado kicks during the night that contributed largely to my dark circles. Oh, and the hiccups!
2.His Heartbeat
My joy and excitement in every single visits to Dr Loke's clinic just to see through his growth condition and most importantly hearing his healthy heartbeats through the scans,
3. The Attention
Being taken care of by the people around you.
Fortunate and unfortunate, husband had to give the most. Entertaining to my food cravings (luckily for him I didn't have much of this), massaging for me when i'm having my aches which happens throughout the entire pregnancy and dealing with my ever-changing hormones.

4. The Convenience of Having Him in the Belly
I always tell my husband that secretly I hope he stays longer inside. It's easier to feed him and bring him around. I do not have to worry about changing diapers or deciphering the deafening cries (hopefully he is not going to treat me like that).
5. The Anticipation
With my family and friends.
From knowing his gender to deciding on his name, and finding out how he had grown in the process. Everyone is excited for the same reason together.
6. Pregnancy Excuses
'I think it's because of the pregnancy!'
I find this the best and most useful reason I give to people when I forgot stuff or feeling lazy.
Nothing works better than this :p
7. The 'Oh! Really?!' Moments
Almost everyday it is something new for me. Despite our new age and time where everything can be easily googled, I still find it surprising at some interesting findings I'd gathered during this pregnancy. One of which was knowing that he could actually have hiccups but he can't fart in my belly.
8. The Miracles of a Life
I will never forget.
To my dear Baby Tyler, we will be waiting nervously for your arrival.
