"BLOOD" Donation

Mummy said that my mei mei will make her first ‘blood’ donation within the first few minutes of her birth in March. And this special ‘blood’ donation is something special. And can only be done once in a lifetime thing during birth.

My mei mei will be donating her Cord Blood. Daddy & Mummy went to the
SCBB (Singapore Cord Blood Bank) yesterday to sign the consent form to donate mei mei’s Cord Blood. SCBB is the first Public Cord Bank in Singapore & South East Asia.

According to Mummy, since it is too expensive to keep mei mei’s Cord Blood with the private bank, if we don’t bank it then the hospital will discard it, and it cannot be use for mei mei, why don’t we donate it? It might help to save others.

The SCBB Coordinator told us that not all Cord Blood can be donated. If it is a multiple birth, premature birth, overdue birth or any blood disorder like Thalassemia, etc. All these cases cannot donate the Cord Blood. So even though we have signed the form, so long my mei mei is not born within 36-40 weeks, her cord blood cannot be donated. I pray to GOD now for him to protect my mei mei till full term so that she can make her ‘First’ Blood donation.
And I also urge other Daddy & Mummy to-be to seriously consider donating Cord Blood unless you intend to keep it for the baby’s siblings.

CNY, I hate UUUUUUUUU

I hate Chinese New Year. Every year either Mummy need to send me away for a few days, so that they can go back to JB or Mummy will travel to & fro Singapore daily, so that I can go & do my poo & pee. And poor Mummy, this year she going to do the same thing again.

All Daddy & EE fault. Just because Daddy wanted to spend time with his family and my Mummy’s only sister refuse to let me go over to stay for that few days so no other choice lor. Mummy will have to travel between JB & Singapore daily – Morning in, evening out. Maybe Mummy will get miscarriage during this travelling thing, so that Daddy will realized how BAD it is for Mummy to travel to & fro.

Actually hor, Daddy did suggest for Mummy to go over to EE’s house to spend the Chinese New Year. But hor they are not out family mah, how can Mummy go over to spend Chinese New Year at other people house? EE is just our relative not FAMILY.

I wonder why can’t Singapore & Malaysia government dun issue Passport for us – Canine & Feline. If they issue then at least we can follow our Daddy & Mummy whenever they travel between Singapore & Malaysia. Haizzzzzz

10 more, 9 more, 8 more, ...

The final countdown begins… only 9 more weeks to go, and I will soon be promoted to be a Gor Gor. Not a bad idea hor. Soon someone will be there to call me Piston Gor Gor. It sounded Great!!! Only mummy still abit upset over the fact that it is a girl.

Mummy had been quite busy with the preparation for the arrival of my mei mei (No name yet - Daddy you are really a slow coach). Our house is in a mess now, baby clothes, soft toys, etc... I hope she will be able to finish all these by the end of this month. Mummy also tell me that in a few weeks time she will be away for a few days, then she will bring home my mei mei for me.

Mummy said I must give my mei mei a warm welcome. What is a warm welcome? Should I drink lots of hot water then lick her, so that she will feel warm? Or should I go sun bathing before meeting her, then I used my body to rub her so that she will feel my hot body? Aiyoh, Mummy why must you set such a difficult task for me.
