Sorry for the lack of update, I'm sorta caught up in the malas mode(read: I've been busy with a system demo & debugging). Anyway,it has been a while since the last pregnancy-dedicated post.

So let's be random bout it for a bit.

o1. The fetal movements are sorta shocking sometimes. Perhaps the baby is jumping around whilst doing cartwheels as I'd feel a quick punch or jolt one minute and sorta geli-geli-gatal (which unfortunately you can't scratch..argghhh) movements in your tummy on another - yea I'm not good with words. Susah betui nak explain, but it's sorta absurd and wonderful all at the same time.

o2. The baby is sangat, tres, very active during the day - so much so that most of the time I'll be working in the office with a vibrating tummy.

o3. I'm having bigger everything these days - not much on the upper body, most of the fat went straight to moi butt (urgghh!) - minus the bladder which equals to wee-wee trip every few hours or so. It ain't that excruciating during the day as I'm still awake, tapiiiiii...it's such a hassle at night. Imagine this,

me taking good few minutes to drag myself out of the bed,
walking slowly to the bathroom like a nenek (& C*** would be uttering something like "yang, where are you going?", nak pegi jalan-jalan la kan? Takkan nak pegi wee-wee pulak tengah2 malam ni.) :P
take a leek for a few secs(most of the time rasa macam bladder nak pecah, tapi hasilnya adalah tidak memberangsangkan.haha. Ok that's gross.),
walk back to the bed,
getting back to sleep whilst trying to find my comfortable position.

Yes, repeat all the above once, twice or more (depending on the amount of fluid that I take before bed) throughout the night. Sungguh menggumbirakan bukan? :P

o4. Getting comfortable in bed is such a challenge now. I'm feeling hot like all the time. Okay, not the hot mama hot, it's the I'm feeling restless and annoyed hot walaupon rumah di atas bukit. Tsk tsk. Owh,sleeping on my back is getting more and more uncomfortable now, so most of the time I'll be sleeping on my side with tonnes of pillows. Si bedmate terpaksa lah sabar dengan his other half yang agak restless(kejap ke kiri,ke kanan, kejap under the duvet, kejap tak) before finally tertido. he he.

o5. I could tolerate most of everything when it comes to food. No more no-kari-no-santan-and-oily-stuff(which explains why I didn't gain much during my 1st 4 months). Sekarang semua pon makan but I am still eating for one. No, I'm not dieting. It's just that I can't take much food in a sitting, else akan muntah or sengkak yang teramat which is extremely uncomfortable. Perhaps whilst my uterus is expanding, my stomach is shrinking (Does it means that the baby wants a mummy yang kurus? Well baby, ya don't have a skinny mummy to begin with.). he he.

o6. I had my 1st 'kaki kembang' sometime last weekend. It was funny, really - as I'm well known by my darling C*** as the one with the scrawny long toes (they look hideous in some fancy flip flops), so when moi feet looked as if it has been stung by bees and the toes looked all short and marshmallowy ianya adelah sedikit scary juga. Thank God it only lasted overnight and everything was back to normal the next day.

o7. Ever since I had a hard time to consume fresh milk, I hafta put a halt to my milk-and-cereal routines. Sekarang tidak lagi. I could actually finish 2 boxes of cereal every week. Cold milk + cereals are heavenly ya know?

o8. I thank God for C***. He's my must-have. He'd bring me out to hunt for stuff in my craving list, calmly entertained my mood swings, burp me like baby, massage away my tensed back and feet whilst telling me that I'm buncit (cey!). Owh well, thank you baby. :x

o9. Here comes the big news, he he. Well, takde lah big. Drama lebih. InsyaAllah we're having a mini me = a girl! Hurah! - the doc has been saying that the lil precious gonna be a girl since the past 2 checkups. So yea. Girl it is, insyaAllah. A good friend once said, "if you're having a girl, I hope she gonna have your eyes and dimple".

My eyes? Well, nothing to shout about here since mine is not big nor that sepet, but while I was younger/tudung-less people would usually think that I'm a Chinese(I got it from moi dad). At some point, bila pegi kedai Cina, they would talk to me in Chinese and I'd be like "Err...uncle, I'm not Chinese". he he.

If our lil previous gonna inherit the eyes from me, okay lah kot(he he), but if it's a combination of our eyes, me + C***, I think our baby adelah bermata sepet(Unless little sepet + super sepet = big eyes). he he. Ya, my other half looks nothing like a Chinese, tapi adelah bermata sepet yang dasyat. :P

As for the dimples, it would be a nice addition(It's a dominant trait right?). he he. Owh well, the truth it, I just can't imagine the female version of C***. He has the manly version of everything (perhaps his long fingers are not as manly tapi adelah best berjari panjang), so adelah tak dapat imagine the feminine side of him. Tapi I do hope that she gonna be as smart as her daddy (& me lah of coz :P )


Owh yes, I can't wait to get my hands on those cute little dresses (on 2nd thought, I already did, well, just a bit lah) it drives you nuts just by looking at them. Grrrr..

Now that I'm already in my 29th week, I guess it's the right time to really really start the shopping spree - on another 2nd thought, we started it last weekend - whilst having the lets-get-all-the-stuff-in-safe-colors mental note in mind, kerana di hati adelah sedikit takot-takot if the gender is otherwise, ya know, to be in the safe side - tapi nampaknya gagal.

We came back home with gurlish pink, purple and blue clothes - even the towels,changing mat and feeding bottles are pink - tapi in another attempt to stick to our lets-get-all-the-stuff-in-safe-colors mission, we bought tonnes of white newborn clothes, mitten & booties. At least if tetiba dapat a son instead of a daughter, takde lah dia kena pakai baju pink on his 1st day,that's just too gay. :P

Well, the truth is, most of the baby stuff nowadays are gender specific, so it's sorta hard to ignore all those too cute to resist girly stuff & go for the safe selections. Rasanya cukup lah beli baju sikit-sikit. I think we shall move on to another bunch of stuff pulak lah(read:Just realized that dah ade almost 40 pieces of baby clothing.Err..darling, I hope you're not reading this).

Rasa seperti hoarders, tetiba jer dah banyak. *mode insaf*

Err..I blame the hormones and err..C***? :P

p/s: Malam ni please get me the grill microwave oven pulak yer? The one with the mirror door please. Heeeee...thanks love. Kiss kiss.
