Our Heroine


Amelie is such an amazing mum. She did much more than what I expect a mom would do. She asked around for the best doctor and we've decided on Dr. Terry. She would go for a walk everyday in the park after dinner and I still feel bad that sometimes I was not able to accompany them.

During the 1st trimester, she would vomit quite frequently but I've NEVER hear a word of complain from her. Amelie is definitely a heroine in our family.

Amelie borrowed a stethoscope, we would play hide and seek with Chloe. Almost every night, we used the scope on Amelie's tummy moving inch by inch and we would be so happy when we found Chloe's heart. There would be days where we couldn't find it but we just shrug it off attributing it to the entry level scope that we are using. After a few weeks, the scope started to emit loud tapping sound that it was annoying to use and we stopped listening to Chloe's heartbeat and instead just waiting for her to kick mummy's tummy.

As we were planning to have a baby, Amelie took elevit everyday before we knew about Chloe. Dr Terry recommended fish oil tablets as well and since then, she took elevit and fish oil everyday. She wants the best for our baby and this journey made me love her even more.

By 6 months, Amelie's bump became big. Her hands and legs would swell but she wouldn't complain. She would tell me just to let me know it's uncomfortable but she's ok. This is when a walk in the park starts to get hard as it was hard for her to walk around and it was winter here, but she pushed on.

Amelie used her finger to press on her swollen feet to make a crater that will slowly subside which both of us giggled. I know she's very proud to have Chloe and Amelie's complexion and smooth skin says it all. I honestly thinks that she's very beautiful.
