week 12

went for my second antenatal check up....the morning sickness had slightly became better but i was still feeling excessively tired...i can't eat too much though, because i felt easily nauseated after meals...

my weight has not changed much and i didn't trust that weighing machine at the clinic..it's the old, manual one that you have to adjust yourself until the beam was straight (like the ones that they used to weigh rubber or palm or coffee beans in the olden days)..i gave me 55.8kg on that...but my machine at home gave me around 52 kg...

my skin was getting more dry and i have to change to Sebamed shower oil instead of my normal Bodyshop...and i started to use the normal Aquoues cream that i got from the clinic (the big 500g tub)

during scan, i saw my cute little fetus was very, very responsive to touch..it was jumping around vogorously and his strong heart was beating well...i can see the head and body differentiation very clearly now and its 4 little limbs were kicking and punching all the way...he was growing well as expected..

with the Ramadhan coming, i hope i can fast the whole Ramadhan like i used to do when i was pregnant with Jihan 3 years ago...

week 11

went to watch Wall- E with hubby n Jihan...love it! then visit my good friend who had just delivered a baby boy in Klang...

i'm feeling ok...but kept having on and off left sacro iliac joint pain....i never had this pain during my 1st pregnancy with Jihan....i wasn't sure what was the cause...

the good thing was, my psoting in Kajang is coming to the end...how glad i was...i really hate to drive alone nowadays...i love being pampered by my hubby....

i had a few courses to attend this week and next week...

and i failed in one of the courses and had to repeat the test after raya...i was so sad...but nevermind...

i seldom sent Jihan to her playschool this few weeks...hubby usually accompanied her...i had datelines to catch for my write up...and i was feeling sick to get up early morning, especially during the weekend... and i began to slow down going out to shopping malls during the weekend...

going for the 2nd antenatal check next week...

week 10

sorry, i've been delaying putting the latest updates in this blog...the reason being, i was quite busy, at the same time i was lazy and i was damn tired, and sometimes i felt sick...

this week, again i went to sushi groove to satisfy the pregnant mother's appetite....we tried different sushi this time and it tasted good...

otherwise, i was feeling so, so...always feel dizzy when i stand for a long time...

i need a good rest...a long one and i just wish i am a fulltime housewife who can just stay at home to sleep...hahahah...

week 9

i am really craving for a corn in cup!!!...i went to tesco and giant and went back feeling frustrated because nobody sells the conr in cup there!! then my dear mum realized that there were some frozen corn in the freezer so she made one bowl for me...yummy!!..but i still went to midvalley the next day to get Nelson's corn in cuo, to my surprise the price has gone up!!

i had an impacted wisdom tooth and it had become swollen again after i had a very bad episode about 9 months ago....i think this is mainly due to pregnancy when you tend to get swollen gum so it presses onto the tooth and the nerves surrounding it...i had to put ice onto it to relieve the pain and swelling...it's terrible!!!

and i'm still having a yo-yo appetite...hey, i'm also craving for sushi, particularly the ones in SushiGroove....and we went there to have some sushi....hmm...yummy!!!

and i'm still not gaining weight...and hubby took my blood for antenatal screening...i'm really scared of needles...that's why i only asked hubby to take my blood and we did it at home...because i tend to scream when he poked the needle into me!!!!

i'm getting lazier and lazier each day...i love sleeping nowadays...

week 8

i did my booking this week....with my previous obstetrician, Prof J....all examinations were normal and when he did the ultrasound, there you can see a viable intrauterine feotus with its CRL equals to 8 weeks.... and i can see its strong heart beats too....

Jihan was so excited to see her little "adik" on tghe ultrasound machine screen...and i showed her the ultrasound photo of hers when she was 12 weeks old and also her little "adik" and she was so excited saying, "adik is black", referring to the all black background of my uterus...i told her that her "adik" is the white shadow...

i spent most of the time at home sleeping....i seldom study nowadays....i read when there's a discussion the next day...and i realized that i must eat Kiwi fruit everyday....i have to stock them in the fridge....and i also tend to eat "asam kulit limau", my favourite, but not that much...

and when i'm oncall, dear hubby would follow me to the hospital and stay in the doctor's room to keep me accompanied...thank you, dear....

and lately i feel like eating lasagne in the middle of the night and i'm craving for corn in cup...

week 7

i'm still having this on and off giddiness and sometimes excessive hungry until i feel like fainting....i make sure that i have some sweets or chocolates in my my pockets and bag as well...i also experienced excessive sleepiness and tiredness....

my appetite has improved but my weight is still maintaining at around 53-54kg, not more than that....and dear hubby booked a night stay at Putrajaya Shangri-La just to have a different environment other than home and it was a very nice stay...but i was surprised that i can't enjoy much their scrumptious buffet breakfast...i felt a bit nauseous to taste all the food...

and i started craving for McDonald's which i have abstained from for a few months while i was trying to get my weight down....i really love their double cheeseburger....

and it's time for another ultrasound...my friend and i, we were trying hard to locate the sac but there was my bowel shadow overlying it...so cannot visualize it that good...but i think my dear foetus is somewhere there, probably the ultrasound machine is quite old and the view was not that good...

anyway, i'm very positive about this pregnancy...and next week, i'm going to make a proper check up with my obstetrician...

week 6

the previous week went on smoothly...there was no sign and symptoms of early pregnancy yet apart from the breast tenderness...to my surprise, i lost about 1 kg in 1 week, despite eating normally and my appetite was still good...

then along the way, i started to feel nauseaous and giddy...i can't stand long doing ward rounds and i really hate Tuesday and Thursday because i don't have clinics on these days and i have to stand for a long time to do ward rounds....!

i started to purge almost every morning and there were days i cannot tolerate food...my mouth felt dry and bitter....i ended up sucking sweets and drinking ribena....and i lost another 2 kg within 1 week....my weight was 53kg....

i started to feel tired very easily and i spent most of my time sleeping...i hardly read my books nowadays...

i asked my friend to do scan on me but it's too small to be visualized...maybe we'll do another scan next week....

Jihan is very excited of her new baby brother or sister....we all are!!
