Name for Baby Yong

We were thinking name for Baby Yong, as JY's sister 1st born is Cassandra, 2nd born is Dorothy, so ours should start with E.

For girl, we have agreed that it will be Egwene, and for boy, JY chose Ernest (I have no objection, as long as it is not Eugene).

Confinement

Talked to Rabbit yesterday.... She told me a horrible thing... During confinement, mothers are not supposed to bath... Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.... How can anyone stand NOT bathing for one month???? I MUST wash my hair everyday... It is SO UNHYGIENCE!!!

*Sigh* Must bargain with Mummy about this.... No way can I stand not bathing for a day, let alone a month....

Myths......

Who told me that the 1st trimester was the most horrible period, once it is over, no more vomitting, no more tireness????

I think my vomitting worsen... to twice a day, and even more tire than ever.....

I am trying to decrease my dependence on sour plum... so I turned to Calamarsi Juice :-) Hope it will work as well.....

Tonics for Baby Only.....

So sad... Whatever food or tonics I take, it is only for Baby Yong. When asked is there any tonics for Mummy? The answer is, after birth....

So I am jus a child bearing machine????

I hope it is a Baby Girl

Dry Skin

Hmmm... they say pregnant women will have a glow, but people have been commenting I looked pale.

And worst, I got dry skin, skin peeling off my hands and feet... And my lips too. What's happening. And I can't drink plain water now, must add honey then I will finish it.

I have tuned motherly??

Rumours are flying around the office that I am pregnant, and one more ridiculous one, is that I have became more motherly.

Hmmmmm.... Pregnancy can change one's look? Or do I look very fierce in the past?

Confirmed EDD : 10 Apr 2008

Yesterday, went for the check up, and the gynae has confirmed that the EDD is 10 Apr 2008. Was excited and a bit nervous, Baby Yong has stablised, and all will be well as long as Baby Yong remains in my womb till the 3rd month (approx end Sep/early Oct). Pray for me and Baby.

Well Pregnancy has changed me in a few ways:
1) Brushing teeth is now a diffcult task, what normally takes 3 mins, now takes 20 mins to do so, as I tend to get nausea while brushing, so got to stop and rest.
2) Eating habits have changed. Now sour plum is a thing that must have in my bag, as I can get nausea anytime.
3) Timing of eating has to be precise, any delay, well, who is going to clean up the mess?
4) Clothing are getting tighter, and I will need a change of warerobe soon :-)

P/S: I have gained 2kg for the past 3 weeks, and Baby Yong has grew from 3mm to 19mm too :-) Baby and Mummy grow together.
