But since 2 weeks back, the rain has stopped and the heat [...]

In: It Sucks|Mother To Be|Pregnancy Symptoms|Pregnancy Updates
30 Nov 2009The first time I realised that my feet was swollen, was the weekend after our baby shopping began. Then the 2nd time happened after going to Pureen Warehouse Clearance. Why It Happens?

I had my 1st fix of an unmerciful leg cramp this morning at 5.46am. I woke up instantly bending my right leg — which I should have straighten — to massage my calf. But the the pain was so overbearing that I shouted out for the husband. And I think I gave him a heart [...]
Pregnancy Updates 18: Sleeping Position.
4 Nov 2009For the past 2 weeks, falling asleep and staying asleep during the night is becoming more and more difficult.

27 Oct 2009There’s no other smell in this world which I hate more than this. And I seriously mean hate! Although it’s more of fearing it for my dear life, I’d rather not dwell on it as a weakness but as a sworn enemy. Ultimately for life. I discovered that I hate Downy — better known as [...]

18 Sep 2009Has it been 2 months already since my first officially whining? Definitely feels longer than that.
