Week 8plus update...

I have not been coming to the net for a long while, that explains the inactivity in my blog. My little nugget (which by now should have grown quite a fair bit) is making me very tired. Have been sleeping like a log lately, still feel tired at the end of the day. Also, for once today, I am at the verge of vomitting. Other than that, I guess i have quite a smooth first trimester. Feeling slight nausea and slight headache at times.. but mostly in the evening... : ) Hope it maintains.

Went some lunch time shopping yesterday. Went to spring maternity and saw maternity jeans.. think i am going to get one soon. cool, didn't know this thing exists... went to mothercare, saw very cute and nice night pyjamas for the baby(forgot the name to it)... oh i think it is jumpsuit. but of course in cotton.. if you know what i am referring.. hehe... it has a series that goes "i love daddy", "i love mummy", "i love grandpa", "i love grandma", "grandpa loves me" and "grandma loves me"..went searching "i love uncle", but couldn't find one (too bad, billy). feel like buying these next time.. but that will cost me $60 , which they will wear for at most 3 months... (see how it goes then)

For the past week, I have been thinking about my diet. Keep thinking that it is not a balanced and suitable diet for my baby, but due to work and what nought, find it hard to have balanced one. But i realised that calcium is very important, among other minerals and vitamins. Dairy products is very impt, so have to drink more milk and egg... nowsadays, have been eating alot of "cai fan" to have a balanced meal.. hope i don't grow too fat in the end.

lastly, i miss my TEA.... sob sob.... everyday drink milo..(it sucks after a long time)

29 inches

now my waist is 29 inches... sob sob.... hope it maintain there (yeah right)...

So...interesting

Up till now, I have yet to feel much of my pregnancy. I attributed this to me not knowing anything about pregnancy and maybe it was unplanned. But anyway, I decided to hit the web to get myself more prepared for the whole process and have a healthy and cute baby.

And i found that:

1) So... the little nugget is actually called the embryo
2) So... it is in my uterus and not my womb..
3) So...my embryo is developing very rapidly. quote" By 7 weeksYour baby's brain is developing rapidly, and limbs and facial characteristics are now forming. Your baby's heart now has a right and left chamber. An ultrasound may be able to detect heart motion. The esophagus and trachea are changing and differentiating into separate tubes, with lungs positioned on either side.unquote"

I really didn't know that all my baby's feature will be formed within my first trimester. I really have to take good care of myself, as I want my baby to be as good looking as Aaron Kwok or me, depending on the gender. :p

BB Day

As said by my colleague, 2006 has been an eventful year for me. First, I have to nurse and treat my tooth injury resulted from freaking rollerblading accident. Second, I have to plan and go through an important stage of my life - Marriage. Third, I have to adjust to the life of living together with someone and doing housechores on my own - with help from my great husband. Fourth, my father-in-law has to go through a life and death operation to reduce the risk of bursting his aeorta. Fifth, as a result of his operation, as a family, we have to support him in his renal dialysis.

Today, 17-06-2006, within a span of 3 hours, I found out that i was potentially pregnant and then confirmed there is a little heart beat in my womb. Just for 1 minute, we can see that the little 0.95cm nugget is beating regularly and gynae Ang can determine that it has been 7 weeks and the EDD is 03 Feb 2007. Wow, amazing.

















I still have not fully grasp the impact yet, though i know we are happy about it. I know nuts about pregnancy and parenting but i know i can be a good mother. Let wait and see...
