My New Addition: Ms Backache.
August is coming to end...that fast huh...?? And that shows we have only 10 or more days left for Ramadan. Lailatul Qadar can happen any time from these ten days and it will be the best time to seek Allah's blessings, forgiveness and prays for what we want. At this moment I can only think of my Soya Bean's health and well-being.
At 6 weeks 5 days old, its features are slowly developing. I have been downing Vitasoy Soya Bean Milk (thus the nickname of my growing foetus) ever since pre-pregnancy till now.
I dont crave for Seasons Ice Lemon Tea like before. Each night, I drink at least two full glasses of soya bean milk and it just feels great knowing my own Soya Bean will be getting all the nutrients from it. I was discussing with Hubb the other night asking him to take off/leave day on the Sept 16th (being my 29th birthday!!) and plan to make a trip down to the gynae for our first heartbeat scan of the foetus. But oh well....military life is so regimental, what else. He will be on course from 15th till the 17th and finally I chose to go on the 14th instead, which would be exactly a month after that pregnancy self-test kit.
By the 14th, Soya Bean will be approximately 8 weeks 4 days old. Not too early to for scanning, am I..??
Being close to 7th weeks, I am still at my same weight. Ive read where some ladies put on at least 5-6kg by the time they reached their 7th-8th week pregnancy. And some too, had that baby bump already by the 8th week. I dont see myself gaining any weight (which is good...or bad..??) and baby bump..?? Cant see any. Or is it because of the fasting month where Ive been eating lesser or Soya Bean is not growing well..?? I really hope its NOT the latter. I really want YOU to grow well and healthy Soya Bean!! Frankly, I do admit Im rather scared of the weight gain but it does worries me a little knowing that I am not gaining any despite me reaching my 7th weeks in 2 days time.
The only thing I feel & experience as of now as a pregnant lady is the incessant giddyness, sensitive to smell, weird/metallic taste in my mouth and nauseousness. And not forgetting a new addition, MS BACKACHE.
The backache starts to attack since yesterday afternoon. I dont know why. Or is it because Ive been sitting on the floor and resting my back on the wall for a long period while crochetting the flowers for my hairbands & kufi hats orders...?? The aching is still lingering till now especially the lower back. And I guess the past few days of cleaning and disinfecting the centre due to the HFMD outbreak may contributes to this pain too. Ive been sitting on the child's chair and bending down to wash and disinfect the toys. Why dont I ask the teachers to do it, you may ask..?? Well, I rather have them looking after the kids in the classroom to ensure their safety. I am a caring SUP, hokay. *evil snigger*
Orite...Ive been sitting on the floor for way too long and bearing with this back pain. Waiting for Hubb to come home which I reckon will be in another 10minutes. Gonna lie down while waiting for him with my new read, "Lore of the Light: History & Stories of The Prophets".
Good-nite everee-buddeee *Barbarella Ass-Per-Gers Mode*

If it makes you feel any better, I didn't put on any weight until my 2nd trimester. Then I only put on 2kg. It wasn't until my 3rd trimester that I suddenly put on a lot of weight. Baby bump still a long way to go. Give it a couple more months. As for weight gain, breastfeeding can help with losing the weight.
ReplyDeleteThe first scan would be so exciting! Don't forget to eat your folate supplements ok? :)
yeah...many told me not to worry and take it to my advantage instead... sometimes i feel like slapping myself for being to overly anxious for nothing.. hahaha!!!
