Merry Belated Christmas 2014

Christmas this year was a homely one.

Had dim sum breakfast together with dad and baby daddy.

Baby daddy then had xmas celebration with his friends in the afternoon. I was too tired and sick to go anywhere.

Baby baby, mummy is with you this Xmas. Next year, we shall see each other and celebrate our first xmas ok? What would u like to eat? Milk and milk? Hehe.

And 3 years down the road, we will be able to set up our own xmas tree with nice white and blue lighting in our own own home. Mummy cant wait to celebrate our first xmas in our own home. A place we call home. Just baby, mummy and daddy!! And baby will have your own room decorated with all your things.

Sorry baby baby, when you just came to this world we are not able to provide you a nice comfy room. Confinement is a worrysome thing which i dont wish to think of it anymore. All i want to give you is a place with no strangers, do whatever we like, wear whatever we want, cook whatever we feel, bake whatever we think, watch tv and cuddle together in the living room, and a clean clean sparkling clean home.....all together with all our own privacy!!

i waited so long for this to happen..... till now am still waiting...

Okie, enough of sad things to ponder.

Some happy things to share.

Finally, we went shopping the first time after so long of morning sickness. On xmas eve, we went to Vivocity. Main intention is to buy maternity wear bcuz i only have 2 pieces of top to work. The rest is abit tight (although my tummy is still not showing yet and although my appetite hasnt improved). Searched till i wanted to give up already still cant find suitable ones. Then baby daddy managed to searched online and we went harbourfront to try our luck. Bingo. The shop is still there. Phew^.

And so, it is so precious to find a maternity shop with some 'can see clothes'. We bought 4 tops and 1 legging and 1 shorts. Guess how much baby? It cost $375. Expensive ya. I hope can wear till i give birth? Hehe. Anyway, am glad that i think i can wear one of the top for CNY next year. Then no need to buy already. It's been a hard time looking for maternity wear and people just dont understand.

Now i think i wanna get a maternity swimwear. But when is it safe to go swimming? Are babies really a good swimmer? Hehe. I think yes, cuz they have been in the 'waterbag' for a good 9 months! I wonder how will our precious baby look like...

Curiousity kicks in.....

i love u both big and small baby.

From medium baby. Hehe

Just another thought.....

Cayenne Tan Xin En
Kayden Tan Guo En

How does it sound?

Friday, 19 December 2014

Slowly slowly clap clap.

I did not vomit for 2 days. Am i getting better already? Am i officially "can go out" already?

Sometimes, when i vomit i know baby is growing but when i dont vomit, i have many uncertainties. How?

On the other hand, i keep wanting to stop the nauseous thingy.

Contradicting.

Now, the next thing is i hope i can skip the 3hrs snack thingy. I have no appetite yet i have to open my mouth and eat every 3hours otherwise.... puke again. Which is the least thing i want it to happen.

I feel my stomach stretching and now its itchy on one side of the tummy. I saw rashes and i stopped scratching already. I think i can start applying the stretch mark cream maybe say next week? Is it a safe time already?

It's a friday night!

I shall sleep at 10pm tonite.

Good night my 2 precious!

Decided to pen it down because my memory is quite poor nowadays. :p

Happy night.

Sweet dreams baby (my 2 babies)!

Week 13

Nauseous is slightly getting better if i really eat on time like 3 hours apart. When can i just eat like per normal timing? Sometimes i really dont feel like snacking, but i know i had to otherwise, it will start all over again.

I had a really bad dream the night before.

These few weeks, i have been sleeping at like 9.30pm on weekdays. So tiring that i really can't take it. I just need to sleep.

My clothes are getting abit tighter and i need to get new clothes. But so sick to even shop around. Just wanna laze at home, eat and sleep over the weekend. And of cuz, weekend is never enough.

The bad craving for lime juice is still carrying on until today. I feel that i am slightly better after drinking that sourish lime juice. :)

Week 12

Food cravings come and go so quickly that i have not even satisfied the cravings. Sat craving was prawn noodle for breakfast. Baby daddy bought it for me in the morning. Then lunch was laksa.

Sunday was dim sum and bah kut teh. But the worst thing was when the bah kut teh come, my appetite gone. Suddenly i hate the soup, liver and kidney. I dunno what happen, it just taste weird and something which i dont wanna eat. I just had the meat and rice. Luckily, being a small eater nowadays, i managed to be quite full after the dinner.

Baby baby, i vomited 2 times again today although its already week 12. Are all these gonna end soon? Mummy very tired and scare of vomiting already. The saliva taste very weird and i dont like also.

Baby baby, be  good good okay. While growing in my womb, u also try not to let me suffer too much okay? Mummy still have to work and mummy and daddy's weekend life is still all about being at home and sleep throughout until now.

Baby baby, mummy and daddy loves you very much and loves each other too.

Oh ya, the new symptom for this week is..... itchy scratchy feeling on my right side of the stomach. Shall i start applying my stretch mark cream already? Is it still too early?

Baby baby, your confinement nanny is my mother, your ah ma.

Be good good huh. Ah ma very fierce one.

I love u all. Smuacks my big and little ones.

Week 12

Went for check up with Dr Fong Yang yesterday. I think the wait yesterday was the longest. I was the first patient (luckily). Waited for about an hour. Usually can see him within half an hour. And without breakfast is terrible. Anytime if i get hungry suddenly, i may puke. But i bought cake with me. Just in case.

Finally, he's here and me me the first one to see him while his clinic at tbp is sandwiched with people. Had ultrasound scan and i almost teared seeing the little life in me has grown so fast. I saw 2 patches (in my heart thinking, is that a twins?) Then i asked him... this is.... he said oh its the head and this is the hands and body.... slowly i figured out... and it's not twins (although i suffered so much all day sickness during my first trimester). I read up and they say if it's a twins, the morning sickness could be very bad due to the hormones.

Anyway, the little one inside me is either a boy boy or girl girl... no twins. But healthy and safe is all i pray for.

The 'teared' part, it is even more touching then being proposed by my baby daddy. It's like.... i dunno how to explain. A life... a new life... something we have been waiting for and a gift for us! Our precious.

So, next is for Oscar Scan. We decided to walk in to Thomson Medical since we are already on leave. A long wait..about 2 hours. But the test was pretty fast. Did the scan and a long long scan. We see the little one from asleep to waking up bcuz the dr was compressing it with the scan thingy on my stomach. Then we saw it suddenly jumping up. Oh my! I got a shock like what's the baby doing? Could be hiccup hor? Then push the baby to the correct position to do the scan. It's like so cute. Push and push. Squeeze and squeeze. Scan and scan. Left righ up down. Hehe. I get to see the baby for like 15mins on the monitor screen. (Gynae ultrasound only 5mins)

A few moments, i think i had a slight teary eye. Hehe. It's a happy moment! The moment you know that u will do anything to protect the baby. The dr then said it's low risk based on the scan. But requires the combination of blood test to finalise the result.

So, next was the blood test. Ohh... baby daddy wasnt allowed to enter. So sad and it's like... ar.... blood test again. :( this nurse is good. No feeling and its done. Good one. Hehe

Next we went for the hospital tour at Thomson Medical at 2.30pm. The mummies who joined the tour is like going to give birth anytime and mine is like... why are u here for? Haha. Mine isnt showing yet. Hehe. I think the place and everything is not bad. Just that i dont like the parking thingy. Not much space for parking and valet could park your car far away that u have to take their shuttle bus to reach your car. Omg rite.

That was how we collect our car after the hospital tour. Probably, will go for the hospital tour at Mount A (the place i was born) before we confirm. Dr Fong Yang only deliver at Thomson Medical, Mount A, Mount E Novena. Oh, thomson medical has 40 singly bedder. I will opt for single bedder bcuz i think i would want baby daddy to acc me during my stay. I am afraid of alot of things. But again, have to depend on availabilty when bb born.

Talked to one of my colleague whom is also preggy. One month older than mine. Hehe. Her edd is 17 may 2015, while mine is 24 june 2015. We talked for like very long. Bcuz there is so much to share and discuss about. She is 1980 but she doesnt look like. She looks young. Was telling her i feel like everything everybody so black and gloomy. No mood for work and feel that everybody doesnt understand what i am going through. Work is pressuring and so stressful. So much to follow up. And why me?! Then we shared that if there is anything we shall grumble to each other. Haha.

But she is lucky that she doesnt have any morning sickness throughout her first trimester. Her stomach is showing already, now she is in week 16 already. I am still like in the vomiting stage. Today just puked 3 times again. And i stink. argh!

Okie, i am yawning already. Baby tired also already. Hehe.

- a friend whom can share how u feel now is whom i need -

Week 11 

I have this strong craving for lime juice!

Can i drink? Is it safe? Baby daddy says better to check with gynae on Monday before i consume.

Sighz... it's only Sat today.... 

Super bad lime crave.... 

I hope baby is safe in my little bulging stomach... :)

With plentiful of love from mummy & daddy.

Week 11

One more week to complete the first trimester. Will nausea end as well? As in completely back to the usual me? Unsure.

Now i need tea break almost everyday. I feel kind of hungry and if i get too hungry, vomiting will take place again. So i better snack something before that happens.

Went to the gynae afew days back as my cough gotten worst and disrupted my sleep at night. And i was given antibiotic to fight against bacteria. Its a 3 days course which cost $50 for 6 tablets to be eaten once a day 2 tablets. Aww.... costly isnt? But this is safe for the baby, so i had no choice rather to say.

I am so tired at work that i went to bed at 9.30pm every night. As usual i will wake up every 2 hours. Not sure if i rested enough but that's the best i can do.

Thankful that my dad sends me to work almost everyday till now. Otherwise, i dont know how to carry on that journey all the way to office.

After work, i will hail a cab back. $17 per trip. Had no choice cuz i really cant take public transport home. I worry i might not be able to take it. Though difficult to catch a cab from workplace but i still try my luck :)

Next Monday will be the next appt with the gynae. I hope everything is okay. Baby, are u doing well inside my stomach? I have been regular on my meals, so i hope u do have enough nutrients as much as possible.

Will be doing ultrasound scan next week and i can hear your heartbeat & see you in scan again.

Looking forward!
