The last gynae visit..
Before jerry pops! Just saw the gynae it’s not looking good! 1cm dilation, I’m just not ripe enough! Am currently being hooked to the ctg machine and I don’t know what he did earlier, but I’m like having bad menstrual cramps lying here. Argh. And being hooked to the ctg machine for the last 40 mins with minimal movement is causing me much distress. I need to move around! Doesn’t help that my throat is irritated and the pain is magnified with each cough. Okie. I have to be induced. Either that, c-sect to get the baby out. Jerry is 3kg and head circumference is 33cm. Am going to try…

Still wide awake.
2 hours after I said good night earlier, I am still wide awake. Heck, I even filed my nails and trimmed my brows in the process and also ate a bowl of kokocrunch cereals. Plus read a couple of blogs, and set up my google reader. I feel sleep deprived. Amidst random contractions that I am feeling. Yawns. I really want to sleep you know, have to wake at 8am tomorrow to vacate the bed (the new mattress is coming) and I need to pop out of the house while it’s being delivered. The mum’s orders. Oh wells. Put me in a slumber soon! Posted via LiveJournal app for iPhone.

Pregnancy update – 40 weeks & 2 days.
Ok. Turning 40 weeks and 3 days in a bit while I pen this down and get this post posted… I AM STILL PREGNANT!!! and hanging around waiting! And I wonder why my baby ain’t ready. I didn’t really expect myself to hit full term actually, not especially with all that pelvic pains/discomfort that’s restricting my movement and mobility. Maybe it’s jerry’s way of having me get some rest clocked in before he pops out and create havoc in my calm little world. The funny hubby was lying all the soft toys around and about the bed tonight, all staring into the ceiling, in one tight circle. what are they…

One last dash to run an errand.
These days, I hardly could get out of bed. I sleep like a hibernating bear and the role has reversed. Used to be me bugging the boy to wake to grab food to eat, but these days, he wakes and sneakingly creeps out of bed to head home (so that I can sleep longer) but he’s often ‘caught’ since I am the light sleeper and still would rouse and ask a question before my body gives up and slump back into bed. I practically slept the long weekend away. Late last evening, I realized that I needed to head out to buy a new mattress for my room.. the current…

The labour day joke.
I played a cruel joke on my friends on twitterland. Those on my twitter would know! I tweeted some time in the afternoon.. Baby Jerry & me! Haha. That’s the baby Jerry I was referring to. =) I feel a little jealous of my baby, because the hubby readily buy ‘rubbish’ for his son-to-be and I somehow, I feel neglected! I want a present too and since mother’s day is coming, make it TWO! I’m day dreaming, I know. Please don’t slap me awake and maybe, my dream would come true?! (can someone PLEASE go hint my hubby?? Pretty please?!) haha. I wouldn’t mind a rolex, or a macbookpro, or…

Loading up!
I’m like on a food binge marathon to stuff down all the things that I like and won’t be able to eat during confinement and the next few months (seafood). Everyone in the family has been much amused by me, acceding to my requests (oh so loved) and I’ve been rather happy! Flower crabs. Had these 2 weekends in a row.. Honestly, they are so much nicer than crabs because they are oh-so-sweet! Best eaten when steamed plain. Easy and fuss free to prep, and ready to eat within minutes! Ice cream! This is my favourite ice cream, from Korea! I first had it when I was in vietnam, I…

Happy blogs are so addictive.
I accidentally chanced upon a blog of this girl I used to read. She has since moved her blog elsewhere some years back and I never quite knew what happened because the entire old blog was deleted. And my, was I hooked.. I kept reading and reading non stop for the past 2 days because her entries are filled with happiness and it was damn addictive to just want to read more.. And more.. And more. Happiness is infectious huh? And I’m just glad, and happy for her that somewhere out there.. A broken hearted has found her happiness and more. Never mind that this is one total stranger to…

Weekends.
Saturday. 1 day before my estimated due date. I was determined to get out and about despite the increasing pain. It’s my LAST weekend out before i’ll be confined. That, I’m pretty sure. Sure is a sight though, with me stopping every few steps for a short break (catch my breath, ease the pain) and moving on at tortoise’s speed. So not used to it and gawd, the hot weather makes it rather unbearable! Brunch at strictly pancakes, 44a prinsep street. A small little shophouse cafe tucked in a corner, with alfresco dinning at the shop front, seats inside and upstairs. Not much of an ambiance where I sat, just…

Friday’s lunch
My lunch on Friday, shanghainese rice cakes in soup, served with loads of chilli padi and vegetables. Simple bliss. I must learn how to cook this. Posted via LiveJournal app for iPhone.

Dinner with Bernice!
Had dinner the other day with Bernice at northpoint, just so to catch up and plus the fact that I won’t be seeing her any much longer in Singapore. She’ll be jetting off to shanghai for taitai-dom while I’m still on maternity, so less my confinement period, we dont have much time left! I took a slow walk to meet her, thank goodness it’s so near my house. My fish & chips at swensens. The first time that I actually ordered fish & can finish ever since I got preggers. Major achievement in my books, really. The sweet hubby came to join us after his work, mainly to ferry his…
