Seven

Its been so long since the last entry. Wow,how time flies. To my surprise,i'm actually in my third trimester already. This is my 28th week of pregnancy. Alhamdulillah,everything is good thus far and i hope good ending follows,closing the first chapter of motherhood soon. My second trimester was great. I was able to focus at work and had twice of my first trimester's strength to cope with my enormous deadlines. I had been travelling on business trip to kerteh n kuantan for several times and took charge of presentations and sharing sessions. I also came up with the lyrics and dance steps for our family day performance! Hehe tak padan dgn boyot. The point is,i'm happy for being able to bounce back and make up for anything that falls short during the first trimester,alhamdulillah.

On the other hand,life has been very interesting too. The thought of becoming a parent pulls zul and i closer. As an ever-organised n responsible person, he plans and remind me of what to do n always impress me with his thoughfulness. That reminds me of our first appoinment with our gynea. It was scheduled on saturday. Of all saturdays, its so happen that he was assigned as the duty officer for that week. Knowing the uncertainties,its possibility n the commitment level of my husband, i settled down on the fact that i might have to go to the med centre alone. But instead, zul actually swap his turn and arranged for a day trip to kl, just to be with his wife n pay his duty the next day.

28 weeks of pregnancy has turned me from an atheletic person to a marsmellow lady. I have gained 17kilos to date n i have 12 weeks to go. Nonetheless,i am happy and cheerful..more than i ever was 28 weeks back.

Last week,zul n i went for our monthly checkup.Alhamdulillah everything was ok. Baby is developing well. She now weighs 994g. Thats at par with the growth indicated by my pregnancy book and 149g above baby center's. Dr said that through her observation,we might be having a girl.

We have bought almost everything in lights of the arrival of our little one. To be exact,we started to do our shopping on 7th nov 2009,our way of commemorating our very first anniversary. Girl,ur gonna be wearing white a lot. Nonetheless,we'll make sure that u still look beautiful without pinkish outfit ok :-) I must say that we had successfully practiced prudent spending. U'll be surprised how expensive lil ones' stuffs are.sorry,we didnt buy expensive stroller for u but am sure the one we bought suits the purpose. That leads me to a question, am i a bad mothet if i didnt buy expensive goods for my child?

One thing i love so much is the clothes cabinet/drawer for the baby. The design is simple and it suits the colour of the stuffs in our small bedroom. When we first saw it,the design was perfect. But grey was just not my idea for a baby stuff. I voiced my thought but yeah,we decided to take it jugak. So the promoter went off to get the stock and came back saying,ade colour putih je.yeay!Thats exactly the colour that i had in mind. I was so happy..

Here's how a happy dad-to-be looks when he preparing the room for his new member :)

BEN10! Kurusnye kite time tu kan?

Fixing the cabinet/drawer [whatever u call it] Its fixed! yeay!

The excitement of getting a baby sometimes being challenged by the giving birth facts. Maybe going to antenatal class was not good idea afterall. hehe we chickened out after seing the videos on child birth and not forgotten,the process of getting the epidural in u.aaaaaaa...some things are better left unknown..haha

@ Hospital Pakar Metro, Sg Petani for antenatal class...

12 weeks to go and my feet are swelling badly. At this time,i really2 miss zul. If he's around,he'd love to pamper me with foot massage.

"B, sbr byk2...abg phm b tgh lalui tough time...tmbh pulak abg xde same2 dgn b. hopely b tabah n sentiasa igt Allah. dugaan2 ni nk persiapkn diri b utk jd ibu yg baik"

Thank u for ur love n support.muah!
