Dear Skyler,
Hi! You're 18 weeks old now. You're supposed to be 18 cm long and weigh a bit less than a packet of butter. I have no idea why the magazine is comparing your weight to butter but, hey, I'm not the one writing the magazine. :)
We're still praying that you're developing well. Mommy has been a bit anxious because we haven't seen you in an ultrasound for many weeks now. We'll be looking for you next week though because that's when our next visit to Dr Kang will be. :) We're so looking forward to seeing how you have grown.
Oh! And we're also supposed to be able to determine your gender then as well. You're supposed to have developed enough for us to tell whether you're a boy or girl. So, please be cooperative okay? Be in a correct position for us to see? :) We don't really mind whether you're a boy or girl but it would be nice to know so that we can prepare the appropriate things for you. :)
Mommy has been putting on some weight now. She was worried before because all the literature says that she's supposed to put on some weight every month so that you can get enough nourishment but she wasn't. Well, she has now. Mommy is at an all time high in the weight department and she's going to be even heavier because of you! :) Can you reassure Mommy that you're doing okay? She's very anxious about you.
Oh! Remember that we were asking you to come out in December? Well, we just found out that your estimated date of delivery (6 January) is actually the other day that half the Christians in the world celebrate Christmas! Apparently 25 December is when the Western church celebrates Christmas. 6 January, on the other hand, is when the Eastern Orthodox Church celebrates Christmas! But we still hope that you come to us in December so that Daddy can be around to help Mommy and to take care of you.
Today is Singapore's 40th National Day. Skyler, our country has gone through a lot and it will continue to go through a lot in our development. When we received independence 40 years ago, we really might not have survived. Thank God that we did and not only have we survived, we have made something of ourselves. Remember that we must never give up no matter what. That was an important part of our peoples' psyche then and it will continue to be an important one in the future.
