The Black Pictures

其实从去年就想要有孩子了。可是身体不争气，经期不准，生病，甚至好几个月都测不出排卵期。在每个月的失望中还必须应付不同的人的催促：＂你们几时才要生啊？＂＂几时到你们啊？＂＂年轻点生baby比较好啊＂其实是难受的。在极度失望又极度期盼中，我怀孕了。开始还有点无法相信，由其验孕棒显现的那第二条线似有若无。第一个星期，XL一直是处在欣喜若狂又不可置信的状况。

This is the first "Black picture" as what RQ and me affectionately calls it. I was alone when the doctor tried means and ways to magnify the small white dot to measure the length. (Coz the scan is done through vaginal as baby was too small, XL was asked to leave the room)
"This white dot is my baby?" is the only thing I could think of, until the doctor showed me 'its' heartbeat. The white dot became a flickering white dot. "My baby is alive!"

One month later, another black picture was taken. (last week) We were both amazed how fast baby has grown, I mean, baby is no longer a white dot! There's head, eyes, little hands, little feet, and it is only 3cm!

XL din noe there is a big screen in front of me, he tried very hard to see from the small screen the doctor is looking at. So he missed the flickering white light which is supposed to be baby's heartbeat. Nevertheless, we left the room feeling excited and looking forward to the next photo-taking session!
