My gosh. Where have I been to all these while..?? Ermm, blame it on the mountain of work and abundance of it. Alhamdullilah for the rezeki though.The last time I blogged was when the lil Soya Bean was only 12 weeks and VOILA! Im into my 24th weeks in 2 days time! Thanx Allah for this blessings that You gave us. I promised I will post a truckload of pictures later OK!
And the constant expectations from the SUP really gives me additional burden. Everything has to be fast, fast, fast. Im having this big belly, remember?! I mean, Im not asking for any special treatment but a slight consideration would be suffice. I can no longer dash into the office to answer the phone from my classroom and so you cannot expect me to answer the phone almost immediately...right?? Riiigghhtttt. Make me the clerk instead of a teacher then. Period.
I met my gynae this afternoon and she suspects I might be having gestational diabetes. Baby is big for 23 weeks. That's what she said. SIGH. It already makes me so worried ya know even though it was not confirmed. On top of that, my uterus has expanded way too high up due to baby's fast growth. I presume that might partially contributes to the pain I have on my ribs...?? *shrug*
On a lighter, positive and happier note....despite all the cramps, numbness, aches and stress level, I am embracing this new life, new body that Im going through now.
And yes...have you heard..?? This Lil One growing in my tum tum is a GIRL. CHA BOR. PINK. PRINCESS. *think girly-mentel mode*
Here's Lil One's most recent scan film taken on 27th December 2011. But before that...... the 'gigantic' me at NUH Fetal Care Centre for 21 weeks scan.
Little wonder, she has lips like the father. So move, Scarlett & Angelina! Here comes the next pillow-like, bee-stung lips babe!
And me...embracing my new figure at 23 weeks.
Of course, I did some 'small' shopping for the Lil One. Nothing expensive though at this moment. Some cheap bargains I got from JB and our heartland malls. :)
Pregnancy at this stage has been wonderful and of course with ups and downs. Its amazing to see my flabby tummy transformed into a very round watermelon. And yes, not forgetting the fluttering feeling that eventually changed into visible movements of the tum tum! Ive always hear stories and accounts from other ladies on their pregnancy experience and to go through it myself....gosh. Its beyond words.
To have this Lil One growing in me, being responsible in everything I do, it gives me a sense of being & staying strong a whole new meaning. Its no longer about me, me & me. Everything I eat, smell, think or even the posture I sit, I never fail to think of the Lil One. Talking about sitting..nah. I will come to that.
"Ouch" is an understatement. I can no longer sit for long now without resting my back. The right ribs would start to feel numb, the lower back starts to ache and gosh...I really shudder to think how it will be like in the next few months to come. I begin to walk like a penguin due to the impending back pain and the cramps on the lower abdomen starts to make its appearance. In short, I can no longer walk as fast as before.
However, Alhamdullilah. I can still perform the daily Solat despite the big belly. Maybe the chair will come in handy when I turned humongus. *winx*

This flower prints reminds me of Strawberry Shortcake!
Terry cloth hooded dress! Hehehe. Ok, Im so kiasu here coz I guess she can only fit this in when she reaches....1 or 2 years old..??? They come in baby blue & pink but those colours only have bigger sizes available.
I cant wait for April to come as I have intended to take my maternity leave once I reached 36th/37th weeks. In fact, Im looking forward to just put my work aside and truly enjoy my break without anyone 'barking' down my throat. *LOL*

Ive been sitting on this *initially-comfortable-but now-no-longer-comfortable-already* chair for almost 2 hours and I should take a break now. If not....... I will not walk back to my room like a penguin but will walk like a pregnant elephant instead................
Err....good night & thanx for reading everybodeee.... *muax*
