Evil claws

Another rather pointless checkup at Kwong Wah today. We've literally waited for more than 2 hours and went in to see the doctor for less than 3 minutes. I was told to get onto the checkup bed, nurse showed me the baby's heart beat whilst the doctor told me about my previous two blood tests (which are fine as I expected), then doctor came over and used a plastic rule to measure my tummy. Then the horrible 'claws' came! She used both her thumb and index finger pressed on the top and the bottom of my belly - I didn't know why she did that - I just know it hurts! Didn't know you can press a pregnant belly this hard!!!

Afterward she said 'the baby's head is down already, but we won't know for sure until it's the last 3 weeks time about his position' - I thought you'll know if you use an ultrasound! That's right, never been on ultrasound at Kwong Wah before! Dr. Fong said public hospital won't give you ultrasound unless you have some problem or that you are very special, i.e. very old or troubled'. And since I am neither, chances of me having ultrasound there is zero. Every time the consultation time is getting shorter and shorter, breaking the record today! *sigh*

But nothing to complain, I have a day off from school because of that. Tomorrow is our Professional Development day. Back in school for 8:30, so that's not too bad I guess. The morning session will be fine 'cause Wil will be hosting it. Though 3 hours in the afternoon is gonna be about IT training, how to use moodle, google apps, interactive whiteboard, etc. I wonder if I can skip it if I know how to use them already...have a feeling it's gonna be a waste of time :/

Dinner's ready, I have a lot of green leaves today :D waiting for the rice to finish, then I can prepare my lunchbox!
