My birth mark



I had a birth mark on my hand. Its a small brown spot which is rather visible. Mom suspects it could be because during her pregnancy, she sat on the bed and apply liquid foundation on her face. The old grandmother myths - pregnant women should never do anything on the bed especially sewing, cutting... etc. Applying foundation on the face is not included though but somehow due to superstitious, she believes it gotta do with something. And thats the only thing she can remembers. Anyway, if u look at it scientifically, it is due to some skin pigmentation. But she dun really believe. Well, the consolation is - the mark is on the hand and not on the face. So, she counts her blessings. Being pregnant is fun and truly a very meaningful process where each and every woman should go through. But in the midst of it, there are many things which one has to take note, particularly for the Asians.

Dermoid Cyst

Mei Mei had went for her appointment on her Dermoid Cyst; at her right eyebrow area. It is pretty obvious as she grows older. The Doctor finally decided to operate on her after Mom & Dad insisted. Honestly, they didnt have a very good impression on the KKH Doctors afterall since Mei Mei's hospitalisation. During the 1st appointment on the dermoid cyst, the doctor was still okay. He explained everything in great details to my 2 old folks...and waited patiently for the 2nd appointment which was supposed to be due in 2 months time. But because the cyst seems to get larger, we had brought forward the appointment date & insisted something to be done straightaway. He only sent Mei Mei for some ultra-scan; which turned out to be fine, PHEW!!! 2nd Doctor SUCKS, I would say! Yes, still at KKH we are talking about. In case you do not what is KKH , pls do click on the name KKH , which will auto bring you to the site. We cannot remember the doctor's name for now. Anyway, this d...

Mei Mei can walk!

Mei Mei can walk!!! At 16 months exactly! And so, we captured this beautiful snapshot of her, standing by our door. The old generation was saying, little babies should start to walk at the age of 12-13 month. If it passes, the next lucky month will be 16th month. Well, whether it's plain coincidence or really the truth, Mei did start walking at the age of 16 months. Not stable yet of course, but it's a good start! Somehow, we just feel that Mei Mei has grown up by this picture. She has grown from a tiny pea to now, looks like a fine young lady to us, whom knows how throw tantrums, babbles to herself & giggles very loudly.
