Baby is 17 weeks old & heartbeat is pumping

By dareNtiff -

Your baby is now nearly 5.5 inches/ 13 centimetres long from crown to rump and weighs approximately 5 ounces/ 140 grams.

Her skeleton is mostly rubbery cartilage, which will harden later. A protective substance called myelin slowly begins to wrap around the spinal cord.

With the help of a special stethoscope, you can now hear your baby's heartbeat. There's almost nothing more comforting or exciting than hearing your baby's heartbeat galloping along.

Nathanael's Balancing Board

By dareNtiff -

Nathanael was pretty blessed during Christmas (we've not blogged about the kids' Christmas yet) .. and Nathanael was blessed from 5Ku Por & 6 Ku Por with a Balancing Board. As part of Nathanael's therapy and daily exercise to stand, we've added a one step up, to aid Nathanael to balance when he stands. Nathanael still needs to learn to balance on his own, as you can see he's still leaning on the door! So pray for him yah!! A Close Up shot of the Balance Board. It functions pretty much like a see saw. Where Nathanael will stand on the the far end of the boards to keep his balance upright! [tags : darentiff nathanael ]

When we first posted up Nathanael's new sensory integration exercise , to be swung in cicular movement on a make-shift swing, we asked for help to build a swing. We are so thankful for friends who read the blog, and friends who have the knowledge and skillset to help build one for Nathanael. Bergson was telling us that he read about our plea for help to build a swing for Nathanael last week. And this weekend he popped over to build a swing for Nathanael! Just like that!! BIG Thank You uncle Bergson!! Making of Nathanael's Swing [ story by Nathanael ] The idea was to get this little U-shaped hook to be stuck firmly in the ceiling, so that this would form the base structure to hand the swing. [For the trained eye, you will know that this is the same hook used for the Ceiling Fan] Placing the U-Hook up on the Ceiling, Bergson took some measurements and immediately started drilling into the ceiling. Thank GOD that Handy Bergson has all the canggih tools ... Power Drill with L...
