Baby @ 30 weeks

Went to see Dr. Lim for a bi-weekly appointment yesterday.

He said baby is still in a sitting position. Oh no... baby... time is running out for you to turn downwards. If you wait longer, you are getting bigger! (My weight is now 55.5kg)

Heart rate is 160++ bpm and weight is 1.6++ kg.

Doc says everything is developing fine.

I feel happy to hear that. Only thing is I feel baby is not very active and not kicking me much. The doc gave a very straight to the point answer... if baby was not active from the beginning, there is nothing to be of concern. If baby was active in the beginning and NOW the baby is not, then there is something to be worried. OK, doc... I think you are very right!!!

Other than that,
It is getting more difficult to sleep now. Don't lie much flat on my back... so have to lie side ways which is rather uncomfortable especially when the bed is hard.

The weather is still hot as a desert. Today was the worst kind of heat EVER!

Finally bought my Nutella spread coz i had the craving. Now that i have it, I find it too sweet!

Good night, baby. Good night, Ryan! Good night, hubby!

(Today is the anniversary when my hubby and I first met in Seremban over a makan session with friends in 2001. I normally don't keep track of the dates... even my wedding anniversary I normally forget. Anyway, hubs came home with a stalk of lily. I was surprised. It was a nice gesture for him to take the trouble. But I told him for the price of the flower, a dinner treat would be more worth it. But that was before I knew what was the reason he bought the flower for.)

Lazy day!

Today i feel lazy.

Totally lazy! My entire head is in a blur right now. Also abit moody. Pregnancy blues i guess.

I should be glad that its FRIDAY! What's the diff? I am working tomorrow. For me, the days don't matter. I only dislike working on a Monday.

Have so many plans in my head about what to do today. Go to Jusco. Cook noodles for lunch for Ryan and I. Want to make potato curry puff. Want to make raisin butter cupcakes. Want to surf the net. Want to blog.

That is the problem. I plan so much but at the end, I probably won't execute any of those plans.

I will probably use all my energy screaming at Ryan for misbehaving himself. I do find it that if you remain calm with the naughty toddler, things are easier to be achieved!

(Baby and I weight 54.5kg now)

(I can't believe that American Idol is down to its Final 6 already!!! How time flies!!!)

Hot! Hot! Hot!

Wow.. i cannot describe the intensity of the sun for the past few days!
Never seen such a roaring angry sun. Why so blazing hot, Mr Sun?
My son can't go out to the playground or even take his evening walks now.
We have to switch on the air-conditioner for a longer period. There goes our electricity bill!
Hubby and I contemplating to get an air-cond for the downstairs living room. But very very expensive. Almost RM2500++ with inverter.
There goes a nice cool living room to watch tv. Too many expenses already plus for the months to come.
Even the air-cond in my room is not cold anymore with this scorching heat.

Hope rain will visit us soon....

The attack of the cockroaches!

For the past 2 months or so, I have noticed these tiny little cockroaches in my kitchen.
I ABSOLUTELY loathe cockroaches. They are my no.1 enemy!!! They only come out at night after we all switch off the lights. So when I go to the kitchen at night, I will normally see one or two on the floor or on the kitchen counter. BAM! I will try to hit them. But lately, I have noticed more and they have gotten bigger! Horror! Horror!

So, sent hubby out immediately the next day to get the round discs that contain cockroach poison.
We put them all over the kitchen on Saturday. Let's see how the progress is. Just saw one big one yesterday night!

Sitting position @ 28 weeks

Had a check up yesterday.

I was scheduled for a GTT since i have family history of diabetes. It was quite a torture. I don't remember it being like this when I was pregnant with Ryan. I had to drink this solution which was ultra sweet. Within minutes, I feel giddy. I quickly bought my newspaper and walked back to the lab to sit down. Took my urine and blood sample every hour until the 2nd hour. So I was basically clock watching for the whole 2 hours. The lab assistants kept on asking me whether i wanted to vomit. They shouldn't have asked me so many times. That made me feel like it more. The only thing that kept me focused was having my breakfast after the 2 hours was up!

When I went to see Dr. Lim, he scanned the baby and said that the baby was in a sitting position. That means it is at a breech position @ 28 weeks. He assured me that there is still time for the baby to turn. The baby can turn until maybe 36 weeks. So, I am urging you baby to make a 180 degrees turn soon, ok? Mummy would like to deliver you naturally.

I was actually rather worried with what the doc told me. But I would leave it to God if he wants me to delivery baby vaginally or thru C-sec. Whatever way as long as the baby is safe.

My tummy suddenly looks so big now.
All my clothes are very tight now and only recycle a few most of the time.
I want baby to be more active so I can feel her kicks and thuds. Now its still flutters with occasional kicks.

Baby, 10 more weeks... I cannot wait. But still have alot of work to do to prepare for your arrival. Need a baby cot and get you more baby clothes. Your kor kor Ryan's clothes are all out of shape and yellow already.Need to get an air-cond for the baby room and a heater for the guestroom toilet.

The weeks and days will surely pass very quickly from now.
