I announced my pregnancy much earlier and I had my fair share of people telling me Im not doing the right thing or I shouldnt get too excited over it. To each his own. If I was a well-known celebrity and had announced my pregnancy news early, I guess I wouldnt received so much brick bats like now. Oh well....I simply cant please everyone, can I? So the best thing I did is just to pray to Allah to keep this pregnancy healthy and safe.
Seriously, the 1st 3 month wasnt very smooth-sailing. Besides the constant nauseousness, "very-hungry-but-dunno-what-to-eat" feeling, lethargicness, I also received rather hurtful comments from people around me. From me getting FAT to what I eat and "possibility in getting abnormal child". Eg; Eat instant noodle will result to having an abnormal child... Like seriously.....???!!! Which research has proven that?? I for sure would LOVE to know that.
You know what, I would be lying if I say I wasnt affected by it. It wasnt easy to take a deep breath, keep my cool and smile it away. Like, are these people thinking with their brains full of cobwebs before they speak...?? I for certain, do not know where their sincerity comes in place with their comments. From pantangs to having an abnormal child, I believe that whatever happens comes from Allah swt.
I have put all those hurting comments behind me and from today onwards, I would just concentrate in staying healthy, keeping this pregnancy safe and to constantly praying to Him for overall well-being. Gossipmongers who has nothing better to say can go JUMP. Wheeee.......
@ 12 weeks I am this big. But now, im not having twins. :))
By the way... Nice...??
So sweet hor...Versatile for a boy or a girl. But not getting any for now as it is still too early..:))For now, just hope the lil' person in me is healthy and safe. Insya Allah.
I absolutely love the first bassinet!
ReplyDeleteAnd I thought I share with you this website. You can click on each week and read up about the size, weight and lots more. It was my favourite site when I was pregnant. http://www.visembryo.com/baby/pregnancy1.html
Buat bodoh only lah what people say. Some people mean well but accidentally come out wrong, some people just screwed up. I had Maggi quite a bit when I was pregnant, especially the first 3 months. Health wise, doctor and midwife said to me don't eat too much because very processed and very high in salt and to balance with lots of plain water, fresh veggies and fruits but that's all they said. Which is fair enough lah because that is from a health point of view, which applies even to people who are not pregnant but for someone to say can get abnormal child tu dah too much and ridiculous lah. Don't let it get to you. And all these pantang business, I really don't get it.
