Week 32 – Choosing children’s beds

We had a lot of fun hunting for a children’s bed. Since we live in a TINY apartment, we had to look for a child’s bed that would:
a) fit right next to our double bed in the master bedroom;
b) grow with our nearly 4 year old toddler who is shooting up like a weed and
c) [...]

REVIEW: Yoga for Pregnancy

I came across this book when I was in my 4th month of pregnancy.
This book was next to Yoga for New Mothers: Getting Your Body and Mind Back in Shape the Natural Way After Birth but I was attracted by its tagline as I’m a strong advocate of gentle yoga:
“the safe and gentle way to [...]

Week 39 – Waiting, waiting, waiting

Latest updates:
- baby’s head is engaged
- regular Braxton-Hicks contractions felt 3-4 times per hour (each lasting about 15-20 secs only)
- cervix NOT effaced
- sleeping is getting really tough and I’m supposed to savor this before the baby comes
The doctor’s visit…
Our dear doctor estimates that Baby will be a little doggy after all as [...]

Week 38 – New developments with the little Rooster/Dog

Have you ever experienced changes only AFTER you see the obstetrician? Well, this happened to us the day after seeing our doc. His first question was, “Any changes this week?” I didn’t have anything to report except for a) the food poisoning episode and b) my clumsy tumble on the floor outside USM post office. [...]

Week 37 – Is it time yet???

Over the past few months and weeks, we’ve been hearing announcements of new arrivals and also getting baby photos through email (Don’t they all look cute and sweet?). And tapping into others’ experiences, there’s been one too many stories about the baby arriving 2-3 weeks earlier than the due date.

So…as we ourselves move into [...]

Week 36 – Reality sets!!!

We read somewhere that 60% of first-time deliveries occur a week in advance and also that birth can occur within a week before/after the estimated due date (EDD). The EDD is a calculatd estimation on the period when a human baby reaches full term i.e. 40 weeks.
This means that at 36 weeks now, our [...]

Week 35 – Christmas!!!

Preparing for Christmas this year was rather difficult as I’ve got less mobility now and also have developed this excruciating pain called symphisis pubis dysfunction. It’s not a cousin of syphillis but it certainly causes a sharp pain when in regular actions like getting in/out of the car, turn over in bed and walk!
Thankfully, [...]

Week 34 – Baby notes

BABY NOTES: Your baby now weighs about 4 3/4 pounds and is probably almost 18 inches long. Her fat layers — which she’ll need to regulate her body temperature once she’s born — are filling her out, making her rounder.
Her central nervous system is still maturing and her lungs are well developed by now. [...]

Week 33 – Doctor and dresses

First of all, my Mum baked a really delicious fruit cake for Dr and we got to take some home too — which we whacked within the first few days. Dr was quite touched by the cake and the little cat we got him from Kuching [go figure..."We got you a kucing from Kuching." Lame, [...]

Week 32 – Catching up with homework

Nothing much to report this week as focused on catching up with emails etc from being away from the office a whole week. We are very excited about seeing the doctor this weekend though since it’s been a whole month since we could know how’s the baby doing via ultrasound etc!

Also, this weekend will be [...]

Week 31 – Safely in Sarawak

Amphitheatre in Kuching (photo from www.webshots.com)
Well, we arrived safely in Kuching and were very happy to see our in-laws, who were just as excited to have us back (I think!) for one week. They were very concerned about my huge tummy and ungainly gait — I had to reassure them time and again that [...]

Week 30 – Preparing for our big plane trip

I have a meeting to attend in Kuching, Sarawak next week but since I’ll be in my 31st week then, many people were worried and wondered if I should even go on this trip.
We didn’t confirm the trip until we got the doctor’s OK and thankfully, he’s quite happy with how I’m progressing.
NOTE: Most airlines [...]
