We need rest!

Aug 28, 2008

Recently, we are overwhelmed with lots of preparation and adaption.. In another week's time, the maid will come.. And soon after baby lyn will say 'hello' to this big big world =p

Finally, we had our last lesson and lecture this tues.. It was an enriching session and one of the speaker gynae was so humorous! Coincidently, we met J's cousin and his wife after the talk.. She's 7mths pregnant with a bb boy =) They got married few mths before us while his sister, now with a 1yr old boy, got married weeks before us.. And now, all of us have or are expecting new member in the family! Who says the birth rate is low?! hahhaha.... hee, but then it may be 'stop at one' though.. Anyway, happy for them! Maybe we motivated them to complete their family =p haa..

Oh now that we need not go to amk hub for lessons every sunday, it would be stay home day for us.. J can catch up on his studies while i take the chance to rest for the tiring work week ahead.. Was just telling J that since I just joined the new branch, I'm struggling not to take leave or mc before my maternity leave.. I'm tired but at least with a 'workaholic character', work make me more alert during the day.. Just gotta treat myself with a gd nite's sleep everynite.. and hoping J be on normal shift so that he can pick me frm office..

Tonite, I checked another 2 items on the shopping list.. Just got pillows and mattress..! Some final shopping this sat and wait for the cot and sterilisers to come next sat and I'm pretty much done with shopping list.. Prepare what I can prepare =)

Tomorrow's friday! long waited.. I'm so tempted to take half day leave to go shop lei.. Haa... Let's see.. Need to pamper myself a bit.. I've been working hard these 2 mths.. Promised myself that we will put everything aside and enjoy this coming saturday.. Looking forward to it!

Itch itch...

Aug 24, 2008

Just as I'm adding this post, I'm scratching my tummy.. haa... But no worries, I'm not really scratching cos it may cause redness and all those ugly marks if I scratch too much.. Fighting the itch.. 'wo ren'..! hee...

Oh, I'm 34 weeks pregnant now.. and it feels like I pregnant 'forever'! Although I'm blessed that I'm feeling and coping pregnancy quite normally after the 2nd mth of slight morning sickness, it's still 8.5mths of pregnancy that I've gone thru.. I heard that my feet will get swell up soon and this sounds scary.. Surely, it will be very uncomfortable.. Hmm, just hope it's not that bad..

Oh yes, my last visit to the gynae was a pleasant one.. Little lyn has decided to move her head down and she's supposed to stay that way.. Else, I won't be able to go or natural birth which will be disappointing.. Hehe.. now I know that the round hard thing is her 'bottom'.. And I'll smack her butt if she is naughty.. haha... Told mummy she can smack little lyn's butt there cos she still won't move a bit whenever mummy tries to feel her..!

Saw the gynae's assistant bring a ruler to a room where a patient is being examined.. I guess she must have shown signs of labour and they are measuring how much she has dilate.. oh my! they really use a ruler.. J and I was shocked when we estimate how long 10cm is! Well, will take it as it comes =) My gynae says I shouldn't go into labour these 2 wks since the bb's head is not low enuf.. Yep gd.. my maid is not here yet and we still have an annenatal lecture to attend next tues =)

Speaking of annenatal classes.. Today's the last lesson at amk hub! We have learnt alot and better prepared ourselves for our little one.. I always believe that no one can be prepared enuf.. But we should at least do something abt it.. Be prepared and nvr too prepared.. when the time comes, it's both knowledge and instinct that push us thru.. This is how I view life.. there's no need to get worried too much.. haha.. I guess eventhough I may have loss some memory, gain pounds, but I still have my basics that is 'Kai Xin Jiu Hao'..

For now, try to finish up some more shopping and take things as it comes =)

Nothing to hide..

Aug 13, 2008

For the last few mths... the signs of pregnancy wasn't too noticeable.. Except for a bigger tummy.. I think I look pretty much the same.. But for these 2 mths.. my tummy suddenly bloomed! So is my face =( I looked so chubby now and regret cutting my hair short =(( Really missed my rebonded long hair...

Now I dread waking up dunno what to wear to work.. And the heavier body makes me clumiser and tired.. I have to treat myself with early rest everynite.. Except for today cos we had late steamboat dinner tonite.. J's also very tired.. trying to spend time with me, fetch me whenever he can, demanding work and his new committment.. his studies.. trying to squeeze time to revise.. he does look tired.. Gosh, we really are putting alot of tension to ourselves.. But I guess all these are worth the while =)

This is the fat me with an ugly haircut.. =(

A little relieved...

Aug 5, 2008

After much waiting.. we finally got to see how our little one is doing..

As last month, she was slightly smaller than medium size, I got a little worried and have since been taking durians and must have at least some meat everyday.. Haa... I have nvr been a carnivore till now but then not that scary lah.. but cos my threshold is really low.. and have nvr eaten so much durian in my life!! Thought eating shld be enjoyable, i really need to put in effort to eat more for the little one..

So today, she is doing not too bad.. glad that she's absorbing well and gained almost 800g! The medium size baby shld be 1.8kg now and she's jus slightly smaller at 1.78kg =) so happy to see her grow.. girls are supposed to be a little small =) although i still think that my tummy is not big even.. Why am I still complaining when it's actually quite a blessing that I need not be bothered with a big tummy? Hmm... woman arh..

Gynae says the water in the waterbag is plenty, so little lyn can still swim freely =) haha.. she's hiccupping more often now..

So the next time I see my gynae will be in 2 weeks' time.. So excited and can't wait to hold little lyn.. The babies we saw today at the clinic are so adorable and pretty.. hope I can meet my baby soon too =)

So little lyn, stay chubby and mummy & daddy will see u soon =D

Another week...

Aug 3, 2008

Another week has past.. Finally got my 'loaned' workstation.. And after a month of guidance.. I'm on my own without the buddy to help check my work.. So it's gonna be more challenging..

Last friday, we had fun during the division's sqc event.. Being pregnant, I was still able to join the fun =) We went round the building and solving puzzles along the way.. One of the qn that made my presence useful.. hee... What is ninja turtle's fav food? Any clues? It's pizza!! The group of ladies din know the answer and suddenly, I blurted the answer while we were in the lift.. Images of ninja turtles in their sewage home eating pizza just came to me.. hehe... And we managed to find that pizzazz meeting room =) When I asked J that evening, he had the answer at his fingertips.. hahahha....

And at home, we had our own 'Durian party' at my in-laws hse.. my fil planned to get durians for us last wed.. prepared us to make room for the durians after dinner.. hee.. Wow.. 4 durians for $100...! We enjoyed the savoury 'mao san wang' durian.. they even made us 'tabao' some home to eat.. haaa....

And finally, I concluded our maid search yesterday.. Decided on a myanmar maid after much thoughts.. Arh.. something off our minds.. Just wait for her to come in Sep and send to my in-laws for training.. hehe..

Today, we went for our 2nd annenatal class.. Bascially, just a recap of what we heard from the Babytalk.. and learnt abt the symptom of labour.. Scenarios just came to me when I start to feel contraction and should I go to hospital and call my in-law to ask them to get J? Cos he can't be reached easily and the journey back will be full of anxiety and it's very dangerous, i thought... But after talking to him, we feel that he should be the first to be contacted.. Well, we shall see.. and hope mummy lyn will be cool as ice when the day comes =)

As for pain relief.. I sort of feel that what is giving birth without labour pain? Our mothers went through it without any 'help'.. And it is definitely gonna be so satisfying to be able to go thru it with some help.. So I shall take the 'wait and see' approach towards labour pain.. But if it's really unbearable, maybe I will jus take some epidural.. Hmm.. just this morning, I had 'false contraction' it's like cramps and lasted like 1 minute.. I left J at the kitchen on his own and sat at the dining table.. Then the cramp went off.. During lunch then I told him.. But labour pain is not jus cramps I think... haa... wait till i experience it..

Will see gynae in this coming tues.. and I'm 8mths pregnant.. Hope she grows more with the additional durians I eat.. Else it may be jus genetic that she's a petite little one.. =)
