My bosses had gone to Jakarta and will not be back until tomorrow. Hence, with nothing much to do now, I've got my little own free time to do some blogging. Tomorrow, with their presence back at the company will be a busy day for me with loads of things to follow up.
Nothing pretty much to update except to break the good news. Yeah....I'm preggy. :) And I'm in my 6 weeks term now. Everybody was so happy when they knew about it. Especially daddy and my family members. Daddy helps with most of the housechores now. I had my first antenatal check-up recently and the next check-up will be due in March. The gynae that I saw was based in Pantai Cheras Hospital. But with the new opening of the Columbia Asia Hospital in Balakong, which is just 5 minutes drive from home, I'm thinking to switch doctors. Since, I guessed it's never too late as I'm still in my first trisemester. Yeah...I guess I'll give it a try on my next check-up and see how it goes. Daddy said he always prefers a nearer hospital, where else every specialist is more or less the same.
Most of my close friends are aware of the good news and I'm happy to share it with them. I mean I'm going through pregnancy again and it's amazing having this little life inside you. And the bond is so strong even before birth that you are doing everything for this little one. I'm so excited to go through this process again. It's truly an amazing and wonderful journey.
Lunz reacted very well on the idea of having another sibling. I have been telling him, there is a baby in mummy's tummy and he seems to understands. I told him, my tummy will grow bigger and bigger later. And the silly boy asked me, is it because I eat too much? Then I have to explained because there is a baby inside. Not because I eat too much. He is too cute.
The first time he patted my belly, he was a lil' bit rough. Then when I told him not to be so rough, since then, he pats my belly slowly and softly everytime. He was so cute that when sometimes he played with MeiMei and with me around nearby, he keeps saying 'ooppss...sorry baby' at my belly whenever I reminded him to be careful not to bump into me as I've got baby.. And the sweetest thing is, when he kisses my belly everytime. I'm so touched to see how much he loves the baby. He will make a perfect brother. With him around to wait for the baby, it's really different. There is so much love to share.
On morning sickness, I'm experiencing nausea everyday. I didn't actually vomit but the nausea alone is enough to kill you. I felt like throwing up most of the time and sometimes no appetite for food. But I still have to eat anyway. Sometimes, it's like forcing food down the throat. FATIGUE is the next word to describe me. I'm drop dead tired everyday I went to bed at 9pm except a lil' bit later during the weekend. Well, just have to listen to my body as I'm coping with pregnancy now. And most of the time, I have problems going back to sleep once I woke up in the middle of the night. It's pretty normal according to some articles that I read. The high level of progesterone hormone disrupt my sleep at night, leading to even more fatigue during the day. It's a bit different when I first had Lunz. All I felt was just tiredness and was easily hungry. No nausea feeling at all. Every pregnancy is really different as people claims.
Here is my baby's development at 6 weeks:
This week's major developments: The nose, mouth and ears that you'll spend so much time kissing in eight months are beginning to take shape. If you could see into your uterus, you'd find an oversize head and dark spots where your baby's eyes and nostrils are starting to form. His emerging ears are marked by small depressions on the sides of the head, and his arms and legs by protruding buds. His heart is beating about 100 to 160 times a minute - almost twice as fast as yours - and blood is beginning to course through his body. His intestines are developing, and the bud of tissue that will give rise to his lungs has appeared. His pituitary gland is forming, as are the rest of his brain, muscles, and bones. Right now, your baby is a quarter of an inch long, about the size of a lentil bean.
Amazing huh? The baby is so small and yet there are so many things/developments happening to him/her.
