My father in law took urgent leave today so he drove me to KKH in the morning... went for my follow up appointment at the Private Suite. Asked the doc why my stomach hurts even till now and she said it is becoz my stomach is being over-stretched with Gerald previously inside and now my stomach muscles are too laxed to support the gravitational pull of all my intestines etc weighing down on my stomach whenever I get up from bed or chair... seriously I thought the gravitational pull is so much worse than when I am pregnant... anyway the stitches were removed today at a very expensive price of $15.50... just a cut of the scissors.. kaos... and my wound is okay.. but currently my wound is being covered by my stomach.. I still look like a 4 mths pregnant woman even though I have already given birth..doc said I will at least need 6 mths to tone back my stomach.. provided I do sit ups on a daily basis... alamak.. I also asked about the ugly stretch marks.. and the doc told me that mine is sooo serious until even the slimming agencies wun be able to do much.. the only option I have is laser usually done by plastic surgeons.. I think Gerald has indeed caused some very serious damage... haiz...
After the check up, I went to register the birth for Gerald. KKH services is f-up as usual... the counter accidentally pressed my number while serving another so in the end they skipped my queue number and went on to serve the next lady after me.. never mind.. I barely warm my chair when they informed me that I will need to change the address on my IC from my previous add to my husband add where I am staying now... cool... I have to walk to Tanglin police station next door about 10 mins walk to change the address before walking back again... usually I will think it is quite easy... but today it is a very tedious walk for a very short distance... anyway I made the trip to and fro.. and finally managed to get the birth certificate for baby Gerald in the end...
Went to the polyclinic to meet up with my parents in law and baby afterwards... baby Gerald is very good today.. never cry during his blood test.. and he is cleared for jaundice... yippess... next appt will be 1 mth later...
