It had been a speedy 8 months ever since i'm tested that i'm pregnant..
I can still remember shouting for my lao gong to come in to the toilet and showing him the line on the pregnancy kit. First feeling for me was scared as i do not know what to expect. First feeling for him (as i assumed) was happiness.
Started trips to the gynae for chk-ups @ Mt E. Dr Alex Ooi was both my MIL & SIL's gynae. But don't worry, he's nt that old. Prob 50 plus. I can say he's a nice gynae :) but consultation fees are qt ex.
Ever since my family members knew that i'm preg, i bcame the "QUEEN" instantly. Dear will drive me to wk while my dad will pick me aftr wk if dear can't make it. Doing lesser hsework at hm since i need to rest more. Can eat whatever i want and that's also thks to my bb Rowan who's nt picky abt food. And neither I have exceptional food cravings nor i've morning sickness. That also made dear's job easier as i'm nt like some MTBs who crave for certain food in the middle of the night.
My mum & FIL had also been cooking black chicken soup for me to "pu". Thks to both of them!
Think it was prob the 5th mth when the gynae cld cfm that my bb is a boy. I was indeed v happy as i wanna a boy for my 1st delivery. I always have the mindset that the elder bro can take care of the little sis. :) Dear was also v happy but he'll always say gal/boy r both ok as long as the child is healthy. But my fren will always "suan" him that he must be v v happy cos he's like uncle (trad mindset of wanting a boy) :p
Ever since my colleagues knew that i'm preg, there will definitely be someone asking me the below qns EVERYDAY:
- When r u giving birth?
- Boy or Gal?
It has been like this for ard 5 mths as i did nt tell anyone that i'm preg for the first 3 mths.
As i'm approaching my D-day (delivery day), i'm feeling excited as well as scared. Excited to see my little Rowan ~ Don't know who he'll look like. Scared as i don't know what'll happen ~ How will i know that i'm gg to give birth, the pain etc etc.
Anyway, have started pkg the stuffs to bring to my mum's hse as i'll be having my confinement at her hse. A whole load of stuffs ~ clothes, bb wipes, shower cream, milk bttles etc.
Aw, qte a long post abt my pregnancy thoughts. 15.5 wkg days to go... before i off for my maternity leave..
Anyway, shall celebrate my X'mas first before i think of anything :)
