Babies are Angels

We hit 20weeks today and is on the halfway mark. Pretty exciting I should say that in less than 5months, I will be able to hold my boys. I'm praying had that they would grow healthy inside me till 37weeks where they will be full term babies.

Started to take belly photos from 18weeks but I couldn't really see much difference over these 3weeks. That being said, I do hope that the boys' weight gain are on track since I am eating like a pig these days. And I hope the weight gain are on babies not me..haha.

I can feel their kicks more often now and sometimes when I am hungry, angry or they hear some pop songs. Haha. Just the other night when Mr Love is tapping on my tummy talking to them, one of the boys tapped/kicked right back at the same spot though daddy cannot feel him but mummy can. That's the beauty of being a mother carrying her child.

Mr Love's army friend visited 2weeks ago to check on our well being since learning about my pregnancy and we were on the topic on how babies have this ability to forge closer ties to people.

For instance, my piggy bro always goes back to Malaysia to spend his CNY, leaving us here to spend with dad. For years, no matter what we say, he refused to stay back to celebrate with us. But with the twins' expected arrival near CNY, he volunteered to stay back so that he could spend time with the kiddos when they are born. Mummy was so happy with his decision.

When the twins' presence was announced on FB, I received tons of well wishes, personal messages from friends whom I have not contacted in ages. Some told me their good news too when they haven announced publicly. 

Some told me that they feel happy for me that we finally got our own blessings. Some offered to pass me their boy's hand me down or whatever they thought I could use since we will be needing double of everything. Even Mr Love's colleagues were offering hand me down or information they thought we could use.

We felt so love and blessed with all the well wishes.

It also makes me think back on the conversation we had that babies are angels sent by god and each and every one of them will bring love, happiness and joy to the household they are sent to. How true it is. Mummy is already getting ready for their arrival and all she can think of nowadays are the boys.

Looking forward as we progress with my pregnancy and of course hoping that my boys will grow healthy as we go along.
