Happy Vishu!

Happy Vishu to all my friends!

For the past three days, celebration (read, eating plenty of yummy food) has been in full swing in honor of Vishu, the harvest festival.

This year Vishu has been very special for me.. I had my mid trimester scan on the same day and to know that my baby is doing perfectly fine is a big big relief. Unfortunately I couldn’t see the baby in the ultrasound monitor.. I had to lie down and could only see the expressions on my hubby’s and doctor’s face. Hubby couldn’t stop smiling the whole day.. he was so excited to see the baby move. The baby had his legs stretched with one foot rested on the other.. That’s how hubby dearest always sleeps too! 

Both our parents were excited too.. I first called my mom as soon as I finished the scan and told her how long it took the doctor to finish the scan as champ was constantly moving.

My expected delivery date has pre-poned now… yaayyyy!! Champ is growing fast and now my EDD is August 25th.

My nephew Om, who is just 4 years old is so inquisitive about my growing belly. Every time he meets me.. The first question he asks me is “when is the baby coming out?” He is very sure that it is a baby girl. :) What’s more cute is the delicate way in which he touches my tummy.. as if it’s a balloon.

Last week was so funny… he was listening to a song in my mobile.. He loves playing with my mobile :) and all of a sudden he came to me and kept the mobile on top of my belly. It was so cute…

I have been trying to make him understand him that the baby can be a boy or a girl.. we cant be sure that it is a girl only.. But he refuses to accept that it could be a boy. :) I know he would love the baby lots be it a girl or boy! But a small part of me too wishes that I have a baby girl.. for no special reasons.. I just adore the cute dresses, clips, baby bangles and everything.. Its so much fun to dress up a girl than a boy! Hubby wishes it’s a girl too.. so does my mom.

Its so much fun to hear what people say.. most of my family members think it’s a girl.. some of them are so sure that it is a girl. Like my aunt, cousins and of course Omi. Only my in-laws think its going to be a baby boy! I would be happy as long my baby is healthy and I have a painless delivery (which is too much to ask for I know)
