Pregnancy & Soya Beans.
In: It Sucks| Mother To Be
9 Feb 2010A chilled glass of Soya Bean Milk is simply heavenly on a warm day, or whenever. Don’t you agree? That’s exactly what I’ve been having almost daily for the past 2 months. Whenever possible, we would buy a large bottle and that could last us for a day or 2.
This is not uncommon among us [...]
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 [...]
Pregnancy Updates 38: Fat Mama!
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. Though I don’t mind being called Phat Mama, but reality is often bitterly cold *humph*
Since September last year (16 weeks into my pregnancy), my weight has been going up, up and up *blaming it on the milk!* @#$%& (-__-||)
At [...]
Pregnancy Updates 36: Stretch Marks!
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 [...]
Pregnancy Updates 35: Water Retention.
In: It Sucks| Mother To Be| Pregnancy Symptoms| Pregnancy Updates
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 During [...]
Parentcraft – 1 of 3.
3 Jan 2010Besides having a gastronomical fulfillment yesterday morning, we attended the 1st session of Parentcraft at Gleneagles in the afternoon. I don’t want to be too quick to judge, but that session was a big disappointment.
The session was divided into 4 parts, with a 20 minute tea break in between. Don’t be surprised when you’re made [...]

Pregnancy Updates 25: I am Hot!
In: It Sucks| Mother To Be| Pregnancy Symptoms| Pregnancy Updates
15 Dec 2009Literally, I am boiling at times especially my palms. I hadn’t measure my current increased body temperature, but if I did, I would probably be having a fever *sizzles*
A few weeks ago, I was enjoying the cooler weather from the daily downpour. But since 2 weeks back, the rain has stopped and the heat is [...]
Pregnancy Updates 21: Swollen Feet.
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?
Our feet swells during pregnancy because of water retention. This symptom is called edema, where extra fluid are collected in the tissue.
This happens because the [...]
Breast Pump, pt 2 – The Purchase.
In: It Sucks| My Reviews| Preparations
17 Nov 2009Last Friday I thought we struck Gold when we bought the Medela Harmony at Fabulous Mom’s Relocation Sale. They made an error of the sale price on their website — instead of RM228.65, it was going for RM211.65. So we saved an extra RM17 and that was indeed a steal deal! *squeal*
Unfortunately, it was no [...]
