The last visit in a long while.

It’s my last visit to the gynae today.. And it marks the end of a journey for me.

I always complain and hated the long queues at the gynae’s office. Today, I was early because I got the husband to drop me off instead (cos he forgot about my appt and made an important appt at work and couldnt accompany me.. *roll eyes*). And wow. There isn’t a single soul in the clinic except the clinic assistants! It’s a first for me, seeing the clinic empty. Heh.

It didn’t last long, 5 mins later.. People started strolling in and as usual, the appointments are all booked up way ahead and the assistants are busy answering calls and rejecting anyone that wants to pop over today.

I massaged the husband, hey, next time we come early to jump queue ah! No need to wait so long!

10 secs later, I sent another text to the husband.. IF, there is a next time.

When I was done and paid up, the clinic assistant went, ok. Your package ends here today.. I suddenly felt a little lost. Been turning up here for the past 11 months or so and now, it will just be a part of my memories about my pregnancy. And well, I’m not sure if I’ll have another baby. I had wanted 3 before this whole pregnancy episode, but with all the costs and torture involved (of me missing my favourite foods, waking up hungry all the time and the sleepless nights during pregnancy and then postpartum depression and tiredness), I am not so sure.

Maybe when I strike it rich (or when the husband does) and have a helper to help with the chores around and a supportive family (my mum and most importantly, the husband), I would consider. For now.. One baby is enough to tire me and my mum out!

Well, my mum wants a dragon baby..

Hi there! Thanks for popping by. I'm Cherie, a ftwm (full-time working mum) to 3 lovely kids (2 boys & a princess) and my motto in life is to BE HAPPY. Sure, life isn't all that smooth but it's the mentality that counts, no? This blog documents my life. Or rather, snippets of my life that has passed me by. I love capturing life memories in the blog and being able to read back and laugh at myself (or anyone). I love to eat (A LOT), travel and paint my own nails so the blog is mostly about that. Is that considered lifestyle? Of cos, the family is also very much an integral part of me so there would be loads of memories about the husband and my kids - Jerry (9yo), Jerome (7yo) and Leia (2.5yo) and everyone else that's close to me. I like documenting the kids' milestones, their growing up years, their achievements (and sometimes, mine), and my struggles and battles with motherhood. It sure ain't easy. I love seeking out good food and travelling, is trigger-happy, love new gadgets, love exploring new places and strives to live life to the fullest. I aspire to travel the world as much as I can, to soak in the different sights across the various continents and visit all the Disneylands in the world (almost there!). Have fun reading and do drop me a comment to say hi! Love, Cherie Lim Find me on Instagram.

    everytime i walk into dr ang’s clinic (or actually the clinic before going into dr ang’s clinic) i take in a loooong breath coz the clinical scent calms me down. i miss it now (but i dont want no.3!)

      really? i didnt pay attention to the smell! i always go in with the thought.. “issit gonna be packed again?!” and it is always packed.

      i hate the wait at dr. ang’s office.. always more than an hr.. if i have another baby and change gynae, it’s because of the queue! 🙂

        ahh ok.. we went back to him for no.2 coz he’s really a no-fuss straight to the point gynae. we actually usually come in, leave our appointment card with mdm tan (the grouchy auntie) and then go for our meal, and she’ll call when it’s almost our turn.

          i did that initially (leave for food) but subsequently, i didnt have the appetite to eat so i rather wait it out..

          i didnt even know that the grouchy auntie is called mdm tan.. i always laugh at people being scolded by her (she was always nice to me) but she screamed at me today (!!).

          think she was in a really bad mood. i left my appt book on the table (cos she was talking to this other auntie), she didnt see (the other auntie took it to find my card) and SCREAMED – girl, you want to see doctor but where is your card?!

          -_-”

      ya. my mum has been rambling about a dragon baby even before i got married cos she wanted to have a dragon at every generation (my grandpa, my dad and my brother are all born in the year of the dragon).. but unfortunately, a bunny baby popped out instead.

      even if i do want to fulfil her wish, it means i will have to be pregnant before april next year! errmm.. don’t think i will………
