Aunty Tan's Steamed Egg Cake 鸡蛋糕

今晚，妈妈心血来潮突然说要做鸡蛋糕。太好了。其实，在墨尔本家里我只做过一次蛋糕，还是“失败”的。结果还被绍闻埋怨说他要吭了那“失败”的蛋糕。今晚，那做过一次蛋糕的器材终于派上用场了，漂漂亮亮的鸡蛋糕15分钟就出炉了。味道很好。

鸡蛋糕（Ji-Dan-Gao in Mandarin), Steamed Egg Cake in the making.

After 15mins, my Ji-Dan-Gao is here.

啊！怎么就五粒呢？对，我的小小蒸炉就只可以放五粒。妈妈说太久没有做，免得做不成浪费，就试做三颗鸡蛋咯！

Close up view.... Yummy.. (and most important, not sweat)

来个特写，鸡蛋糕发的还不错吧！

Good news ! It's my n-th blood test today that I did not faint after the nurse took the sample. For those who know me well will understand this. I used to faint when I had blood tests, injections.. anything to do with that "needle" since secondary school years. Since I was pregnant, I was so worried. People have been telling me that I have to go through the numerous testｓ that during pregnancy ｂｅｆｏｒｅ　ｇｉｖｉｎｇ　birth to babｉｅｓ.

Infact, I broke my record during last Glucose test, 3 "pock" in 3 hours. Today I ｗａｓ　a little worrｉｅｄ as we skipped breakfast to arrive at the medical centre on time. With empty stomach, the pathologist adviｓed me to ｌｉｅ　down ｆｏｒ　ｈｅｒ　ｔｏ　ｔａｋｅ　the sample. She was good, ｔｈｅｒｅ　ｗａｓ　ｊｕｓｔ　little "bitｔeｎ" feeling and that's all. Oh ya, I forgot to mention, I went for ａ　medical check up this morning.

我就打破了我自己的纪录了！今天我们到City去做体检。太好了，今天的验血我没有晕倒。

认识我的朋友亲人会知道我曾经验血和打针晕倒过。自从怀孕以来，就担心会因为要验血和打针晕倒。在几个月前我就打破了我自己的纪录，在验血糖时没有事。

今天早上我们没有吃早餐就来到验血。因为空着肚子就有点担心会不支晕倒，结果今早的护士很有经验，竟然只是一点小痛。可能我就这样克服了怕打针。

Yong Shuan gained his weight again

Bravo !! Yong Shuan gained weight again.. Yong Shuan definitely needs to gain weight because he is growing otherwise we would have more to worry. However we are very excited because nurse used to call him "Little Man", calling him "Mister" this times. :)

太好了，永轩的体重再增加了。当然如果体重不增加那我们就有很多要担心的。很多妈妈可能和我一样很担心宝宝不懂有没有吃不饱，睡不好。晚上如果永轩突然静下来我会吓醒，看看永轩动动他。护士之前叫永轩“Little Man” 今天叫他“先生”了。

今天是永轩4星期的体检，永轩现在是3.325公斤了。护士替永轩从头到脚检查一遍，量头围，量高度，再把永轩躺着摸摸脊椎骨，还有很多很多。。。一切都很好。最后约了两个星期后再带永轩体检。

We just came back from Maternal Nurse and Child Centre. Nurse Janette weighted Yong Shuan, the latest reading is 3.325Kg. Wow.. as parents, we feel so great and relief when we know Yong Shuan gained 500g in 2 weeks time.

The nurse measured head size, the length, the weight, she turned Yong Shuan on his tummy and feel the backbone, listen to Yong Shuan lung ... I seen this routine before when Janette came to our house on week2. We as well booked in for our week6 appointment. We look forward for many more excitements to come..
