constant hiccups

my little one is a supposed strong breather for she hiccups many times throughout the day! strong pulsating at my lower pelvic area is felt constantly.. heh.. such a cute sensation.. mom thinks she's just kicking.. but i doubt it, unless she's sucha groovie lil one who can kick consistently and so rhythmically :)

but what i dont understand is, why is she breech when her hiccups and heartbeat is felt so low down? hmm.. pls remind me to ask my gynae the next visit.

1.8kg at 33 weeks :(

my Mirabelle is a small to average baby, weighing only 1.8kg at 33 weeks.. finally got to know her weight at yesterday's checkup.. her head circumference is ok.. on average.. but her abdominal circumference and femur length were below average.. :( my gynae didnt seem concerned since there is no evidence of baby having insufficient nutrients or that she's fighting hard to get more.. head circumference being ok, means that her brain is developing well.. but of course i'm still worried.. and also, she's in breech position.. if she doesnt turn by week 36, very unlikely she's be delivered naturally... i DONT WANT a c-section... :( recovery is slow and will be more painful... gynae showed me a couple of exercises to help her turn, will be practising more of that every day diligently especially when she's active..

my poor belle havent had the best since 2010... since it was filled with tears.. heartache and sad feelings to begin with.. i hope she wont become a melancholic baby.. i so want her to be a healthy and happy girl..

hopefully she'll start to pile on weight soon...

here's the comparison of her growth since week 20



head circumference at 20 weeks: 17.97cm (20 weeks 3 days)
head circumference at 33 weeks: 31.33cm (35 weeks 1 day)



abdominal circumference at 20 weeks: 14.36cm (19 weeks 5 days)
abdominal circumference at 33 weeks: 27.77cm (31 weeks 6 days)



femur length at 20 weeks: 3.06cm (19 weeks 4 days)
femur length at 33 weeks: 5.87cm (30 weeks 5 days)

my Mirabelle is a DaTouWaWa... :(
