At approximately 4.07am this morning, I was shot awake with a bad cramp in my belly. I’ve not been able to go back to sleep because the pain returns every 10 minutes or so. It is now 9.34am *yawn* Could this be the real deal or a false alarm? The contractions are similar to that [...]
Last night I gave the husband and myself a fright after an unexpected headache appeared out of nowhere just before sleeping time. We were happily exploring like kampung kids the mobile internet features on our identical Sony Ericsson when the sudden pain surprised me. Remembering what the staff at Dr Tan’s clinic told us — [...]
Pregnancy Updates 43: Blood Pressure.
17 Feb 2010During our last antenatal appointment, my BP somehow shot a bit higher than normal with a reading of 130/80.

Pregnancy Updates 40: Cinderella No More.
In: It Sucks|Mother To Be|Pregnancy Symptoms|Pregnancy Updates
8 Feb 2010These may not be Glass Slippers But they could well be since I can’t fit them no more The swelling almost always goes down a little during morning time. They are at worst in the evening due to the burden of carrying me — 16kg of excess baggage — the whole day long, and also [...]

In: Little Benjac Junior|Pregnancy Symptoms|Pregnancy Updates
3 Feb 2010It is such a shame that I did not record when I first felt LBJ hiccuped. I think it was as early as when I first felt him moved. The feeling is very different from his aerobatic stunts, and are consistently in rhythm. Why do babies hiccups in the womb? Only the more mature fetuses [...]

In: It Sucks|Mother To Be|Pregnancy Symptoms|Pregnancy Updates
3 Feb 2010Unfortunately, I suspect that’s exactly what you’ll be calling me because I will simply become one.

In: It Sucks|Motherhood|Pregnancy Symptoms|Pregnancy Updates
28 Jan 2010Or should I call them Glory Marks? Else the pregnancy would not be complete without them *console self* Although some women are lucky to avoid them completely, I am not that fortunate because genetics plays a role in this peeving aftermath. If your mother or sister had them during pregnancy, you will certainly do too [...]

27 Jan 2010The 1st time I wrote about my swollen feet was back in November. In actual fact, my feet has been slowly increasing in size since late September (17 weeks pregnant) when I had to borrow my Mom’s sandals. Now my once skinny tiny feet has grown snuggly into the generous size 6 Mary Jane! Swelling [...]

All these while, I thought it was naughty boy LBJ pressing from within What is Braxton Hicks Contraction? An intermittent, painless contraction that may occur [...]
