Fake contractions (Braxton Hicks) @ 35 weeks 5 days!

Finally... I have decided to take & upload a photo of my baby bump!

Woke up with a super discomfort at the bottom of my spine at ard 2.00am last night... Almost gota remain in my sideway position for 20 secs before i could finally move my body abit. After that I could feel little bits of contractions which somewhat resembles mensus cramps every other 20 mins.

Was worried and excited at the same time... cuz im only into my 36th weeks and Melody's less than 2.5kg now! I dun want her to be a premature baby... luckily its just Braxton Hicks! The intermittent contractions went off ard 2 hours later.

So this morning, I decided to take a photo of my baby bump before the real contractions come :)

Not working again today, as i only slept less than 3 hours last night and feeling really tired this morning... think i was too stressed during the fake contractions.

Melody's really active nowadays, I can feel her kicks more powerful and sometimes her feet will be sticking out for quite sometime before she "keeps" it! I tried pushing her feet a few times and she will respond with a strong kick! Interesting...

My tummy and hips been feeling really uneasy these days... LS for a few days already. Must really watch what i eat.

That's all for now... hopefully will have a chance to blog again before Melody comes out!

32.5 weeks pregnant now...

Time passes really fast and I'm counting down to less than 55days to labour! Soon my new life will begin...

Feeling nauseous during dinner nowadays, maybe becuz Melody's growing bigger by the days and my stomach is all squeezed together. Guess this is another sleepless night for me! Had 1/2 glass of coke earlier on, shd have known better... Caffeine overload!!!
Anyways Melody's not sleeping too. She tossing and turning inside me now.

Sometimes I really envy my raw. He can just fall asleep within seconds and doesn't wake up at night. Hope Melody get this part of his genes! Lolz

Last night was bad for me too. Woke up at 4am and only managed to sleep back at ard 6.50am. By 7.25am, my alarm was ringing already!

I think it's gonna be worse when Melody's out! Gotta feed her every 2 hrs! Oh my, I'm gonna be so sleep-deprived!

Really hope to get some quality sleep soon!

Another sleepless nite...

1.12am and yet not a single sleepy bug.

Must be that phonecall from my mum that got me so agitated and my heart and mind is still not at peace.

Seriously hate it whenever she calls to ask me really dumb questions. This time round is "do u think ur baby will come out between 22nd-24th June (my edd is 25th)?" After that, she went on to say her frens want her to bring them to cruise and will be paying her. Then went on to ask if she's really needed during my labour or when I'm in hospital etc. F**king pissed me off!

I simply told her if I know exactly when I will be in labour, I think I'll be even better than god, isn't it? She gave birth to 2 kids herself and yet can still ask freaking dumb questions like these. Or rather, she's pretending to be dumb & hoping that I will say I dun need her so she can go earn those extra bucks from her frens. I told her i know what she's thinking and will not give her the answer which she wants. She's old enuf to decide whether money or kinship is more Impt. She had the cheek to ask me back "so money is not Impt to u lar?"

Seriously, I feel like strangling someone. It's bothering me so much I still feel the heat building up as I'm typing this. I wonder if she's become senile to be able to say something so insensitive like this. She totally disappointed me as a mum. But I need to thank her for being such an example so I know I should never become such a mother in future. She's just like a constant reminder to me T T

In the end I told her maybe she should go get some objective opinions from her frens. and she told me she will, and will give it some consideration. So much for a grandma-to-be. She cant even decide whether money is more Impt or her family. Sometimes I feel sad for her. Dunno wat she's living for.

Being 30 weeks pregnant is no joke. I have to cope with my body discomfort and deal with my emotional being. And yet this is the kind of "moral support" I get from her.

Thanks Mdm Seah.

28 weeks pregnant with Melody

Can't imagine I've not blogged for the past few months and missing out on the details of the most important phrase of my life.

Probably too overwhelmed with starting a new chapter of my life - Melody.
Everything happened too fast for me to catch up, I think.

Nevertheless, I'm looking forward to my little baby who is due on 25th June 2011.
Haven't thought of her Chinese name yet.. Wanted to use "乐" as the last character in her name, but mum say that I can't use it cuz my dad and siblings have "乐" in their names, so it's considered as disrespectful.

Well, no choice.. have to think again.

I'm on leave today as there'll a delivery this afternoon for Melody's stuffs from Taka. Almost bought 80% of her stuffs already... left the baby car seat and her little wardrobe, and we're all set for Melody's arrival :)

Cocoa has been good too... i'm sure Cocoa will understand when i'm unable to give her as much attention as now when Melody's out.
