17.11.2011
Jason juz confirmed with his HR that he will be entitled to 6days of childcare leave per calendar year, of which has to be utilized by 31st december 2011.
after calculating his CCL, AL, and Family Care Leave, he has about 13 days to be utilized by 31st december else it will be forfeited...
and after doing the planning, it means that he will have to start utilizing his leave by 13/12 in order to fully utilize the 13 days...
this is more of less in line with my plan, since i've decided to mark 9/12 as my last day of work, then take 1 week leave on 12/12, and then to officially start my maternity leave on 19th/12...
but now our worry is that there is a high likelihood that she wont deliver early.. so in a way, our leave will be 'wasted'.. as jason's plan is to utilize his leave when Kadelyn is out... which makes sense, coz it is indeed wasteful taking leave, and staying at home...
we shall see how it goes, hopefully, there will be some pleasant surprises that awaits us!

Dr Kee's clinic juz called me to notify me of my 2nd swap results...
big sigh!! there is still signs of infection, which means that i still need to be on another 2 weeks of antibotics!!
im quite concerned over this, as it can cause major defects to my bb if i m deliver naturally...
FYI: Group B Streptococcus / GBS..
**
Group B strep (GBS) is a kind of bacteria that many people harbor in their intestinal tracts. The bacteria may also inhabit (or "colonize") your vagina as well, and be passed on to your baby during labor and birth.
When group B strep bacteria is found through a vaginal swab or urine test during pregnancy, it is not regarded as an infection (nor a sexually transmitted infection). Rather, it is an organism found to be normally present in these areas, generally not causing any health problems unless it grows and multiplies. Women with group B strep are unaware they carry the bacteria.
Getting screened for GBS late in pregnancy – and receiving antibiotic treatment during labor if you're a carrier – will greatly reduce your baby's risk of becoming infected
If you're GBS-positive, you'll begin getting antibiotics as soon as your labor starts or your water breaks, whichever comes first. (The only case in which you wouldn't need treatment for GBS is if you have a cesarean section before your water breaks or you go into labor, regardless of how far along you are.)
Ideally, you'll want to get started on the antibiotics at least four hours before you give birth, but if your labor is very rapid you may not have that much time. Take comfort that getting started even a couple of hours before delivery helps lower the risk to your baby. And try not to worry, because the chance that your baby will get sick – especially if he's full-term, you don't have a fever, and your membranes aren't ruptured for long – is small.
...........
gonna ask Jason to mk a trip to Dr Kee's clinic tmr to pick up the antibotics... sigh!
will hope to clear the bacteria by my 3rd swap test !
haiz.. 真是无止境的烦忧！
