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

In: Little Benjac Junior|Mother To Be|Pregnancy Updates|Thanksgiving|We're Expecting
2 Feb 2010Just like our 1st antenatal check-up months ago, today we waited a good 2 hours for Dr Tan because he had 2 deliveries back to back earlier at noon. The poor man didn’t get to have his lunch — until it was 4pm — after he had cleared all his morning appointments. Then immediately he [...]
Pregnancy Goodness: Birth Ball.
29 Jan 2010The Birth Ball is the same as the Gym Ball. It was originally developed for physical therapy in treating orthopedic and neurological disorders. Since introduced years ago, it has become a favourite complement for everyday exercise. Why use a Birth Ball? It is a wonderful comfort tool for pregnancy and labour. It can be used [...]
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 [...]

He will continue to grow by adding on valuable weight from now onwards. By next week, his hearing would be fully developed. LBJ does resembles a tiny precious [...]

20 Jan 2010How time flies! Yesterday was already our 6th antenatal check-up with Dr Tan Lay Seng at Gleneagles. I always enjoy our appointments with him, even though we need to wait an hour or sometimes more just to see him each time Dr Tan always has a smiley face on. But yesterday he was in a [...]
Parentcraft – 3 of 3.
18 Jan 2010We had our 3rd and final Parentcraft session last Saturday. It started right on the dot at 2pm even though only half of the couples were present. By 2.30pm — 15 minutes before the 1st part was finished — all the late couples finally filled the room *Malaysia Boleh!* #1 — Common Problems in Infants [...]
Parentcraft – 2 of 3.
10 Jan 2010Yesterday’s session took place at the Physiotherapy Department, on the 4th floor of Gleneagles Main Block. This time the session was much more inducive because it involved theory and practical hands on. The different environment could have possibly played a big part too. The place was spaciously wide and we were divided into 2 groups [...]
