My Labour Experience

Finally the day has arrived!! It was 2 days from my EDD and I was so certain that Baby Bump arrival will be delayed. Not until I felt a sudden tummy ache at 12am on the same day. Being the usual lazy me, I endured the pain and fall back to sleep hoping that the pain will be gone when I wake up. I guess the tummy ache was bad enough that it send me to poo twice. Nothing came out not even air. After enduring the tummy ache for an hour, I started to suspect something is not right. Not wanting to wake Kent up if it's no so serious, I decided to rest and wait for a little while longer. It's 2 am when the pain is still there and come consistently at every 10 minutes. Okay, that must be the sign! At 3 am, I woke Kent up "Hubby, it's 10 minutes for and hour". Kent jump up from his sleep in a way that I never see before. "Huh?" I started to hesitate if we shall head to the hospital right then or wait and see. What if it's a fake sign? Sha

13 Things I Wish My Husband Know During My Pregnancy

I came across this article/post from Aaron and I can’t agree more (from the men’s point of view) When I first became a pregger, I have totally no idea how much I will change, both physically and emotionally. How much I wish my husband could understand those changes that I am going through. After all, pregnancy is a journey that we should be enjoyed together.

I know that I always tell you that I’m hungry but I had never eaten as much as I meant to. This is because I felt a sudden emptiness in my tummy and Baby Bump is kicking rigorously in resistant of hunger. I can never fall asleep with an empty stomach and a kicking baby inside me. I need food to calm Baby Bump down so that I can have a good night rest. On the other hand I can’t take in too much otherwise I can’t fall asleep. So please be my personal barista and make me a half cup of warm

OMG!!! The Third Trimester is here!

I am feeling (and really are) REALLY REALLY REALLY FAT right now! At week 29, I had gained a total of 5.5kg. Although I don’t felt particularly heavier, I can totally see my arms getting FLABBIER and my face ROUNDER! (=_=)!!! Not sure if this is what they called as maternity fat or I simply need more exercise! Now that I am a pregger, all I am left to do is some brisk walking, swimming and some easy yoga! Swimming is particularly one of my favorite sport despite I am only a casual-breaststroke swimmer. I will do some stretching now and then in the morning to ease my back pain. It’s really not that comfortable to have a bump sleeping on you all night long. It gets even more challenging when I try to switch from left to right! I have to carry baby bump while turning my body, if you can imagine how. Apparently, pregger is recommended to sleep on the left side but baby bump and I are more comfortable sleeping on the back. My theory is “Always listen to you own body” I had
