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!* @#$%& [...]
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 [...]

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 [...]
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 [...]

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 [...]

Our feet swells during pregnancy because of water retention. This symptom is called edema, where extra fluid are collected in the tissue. This [...]
Breast Pumps, pt 2 – The Purchase.
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 [...]
Pregnancy Updates 16: Downy Fabric Softener.
In: It Sucks|Mother To Be|My Reviews|Pregnancy Symptoms|Pregnancy Updates
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 [...]

In: It Sucks|Mother To Be|Pregnancy Symptoms|Pregnancy Updates
27 Oct 2009Since last Friday, I’ve already given birth twice — in my dreams!
