The Little Curry Puff in the Oven

As the weeks goes by, my child grows ever bigger.Now it is 2.4cm and as you can see, it is now looking more human than the previous pics I have uploaded.... hehehehe.... hope so man.....

I am still not sure if it will be a girl or boy, though by now the lottery of genetics would have already decided for us. Both ways also ok lah.... as I mentioned before, if it is a girl, she will be called Christina Komatsu Yeo Pei Sing, and if it is boy, I will call him Leon Komatsu Yeo Chin Leng or Long.... But since it is a girl... I think we will just settle for Christina.... hehehehe...

How come I am so convinced that it is a girl??? Firstly because of my age.... Guys who are older tend to produce more girls than boys.... Seems like the *ahem**ahem* carries either an X or Y chromosome and the X which will result in a girl is slightly more lasting.....

I also keep dreaming that it is a girl.... and so did my wife.... And a lot of other people have also said that it should be a girl..... Even my darling Energiser Rabbit also claims she can see the future and says that it is a girl... however... her words are now never based on fact and her gut feeling...(gut already so old and not really functioning liao) is not to be really relied on too.hehehehehe

But I will be damned surprised... though in a good way if it turns out to be a boy.... I only hope that for all the evils that I have done in all my life.... the worst case scenario... which is a girl coming out thinking that she is a boy or a boy coming out and thinking that he is a she does not happen..... Of course the next thing is that the child is safe and healthy.... Like I mentioned before, the expected date of birth is in mid June in the year of the Bull....(ooooohhh boy.... a realy stubborn child man)... but my worst fear is wifey calling me up around March and saying that she is going into labour.... That will be really stinky as most flights to Japan will be around 1am the next morning.... and I will have to transfer to the domestic terminal to take another flight to Akita City.... So that will take most of the whole day... if I am lucky enough to get a flight out.... The worst will be to transit here and there just to get to my wife's side..... No matter how long the birth will be... it should be over by then..... and if she were really an evil person.. she could get the nurse to show me another kid and I will be crying my eyes out at the sight of a kid that is not mine...... hmmmmm DNA tests are in order.... hahahahahaha

Why I have that fear? I was pre-mature too.... I am not sure if it runs in the family... but if it does.... Oh.... boy.....And I cannot afford such a long leave to anticipate a pre-mature birth too. I will be by her side about 2 weeks before the ETB and 1 month after the ETB to help her and her parents adjust.... Better lah... if not mother-in-law will be holding placards saying "Go home".

But anyway.... the baby is growing pretty much on target and wifey is also healthy and that is most important....
