my 宝贝

decided to pen this in english, for the fact that i have been doing quite a bit of parentese in that.
somehow it isn't that natural in chinese

My thinking, my world and my priorities have changed since his arrival. I am first a mother, everything else falls behind.

I haven't been dilligently jotting down his progress, more like trying to catch up learning what to expect in the comming weeks.
Before i knew it, he can hold his head up while lying on his tummy, voice his impatience for keeping him hungry. When does he start Al Gore-ing (his way of communication)?

He found his fists last sun and happily stuffed it in his mouth making the slurp slurp sound, so cute. Oh, and he found his scrotum while bathing and squeezed it till it hurted. Poor boy, he squeezed harder in reflex reaction, not knowing he needed to release it!

I can never get enough of the warm feeling i get when he smiles, coos, babbles at me. priceless.

的肚子!i have crossed the 60kg mark, baby's pretty on track -2.7Kg at 36w2d, in other words i've put on more weight than i am entitled to.

my baby's engaged and let's hope he decides to come out soon after friday cos mummy's quite sick of work haha.

much as i love to sing to him, i can't really hold my breath well and god knows where's the diaphragm, this article is so apt. But i know he is listening, or he might be covering his ears beneath my tummy.

I have much given up on ba zi, 1/4 through the book and i am literally struggling. maybe i should get an expert to 批八字. At least, i understand the framework and the gist of it.

八字,姓名學

Add to Memories Share
*骑士精神*

為了寶貝 也秉著不求人的心態,正在積極地學習八字!姓名學到是略懂些了,但還須與前者相符。至少不必擔心算命的提供的選項不好聽
probably only first time mums will go to such extent.

my baby doesn't literally kick me, but his squirms and hi-five do leave me in awe, and stretches that get to my ribs, sudden pain :)
gosh, and it always seem that he wants to participate in conversations between mummy and daddy, he squirms. sweet:)
he must be at least 2kg now at 34w.

The past few weekends were spent combing ikea, robinsons, bhg, mothercare & takashimaya for baby essentials and wants and attending evening antenatel classes with hubby. Nesting instinct really kicks in and i knew i had better settle his stuff while i am still able to walk briskly. no kidding, climbing up the stairs are getting tougher with days. Swimming is back in my weekend routine - the feeling of weight is heaven and earth in and out of water.

Still more to do: wash baby's clothes and toys, organize the nursery corner, localised spring cleaning and pack the hospital bag. i reckon, 3 weekends to complete.

i still haven't quite decided whether to go for graduation commencement, 35w then, i still need to be careful and i probably look far from flattering with a ball underneath the gown.

比比 is getting more responsive to voices, music and touch these days. he is particularly sensitive to my teacher's and sister's singing (more bass and amplified?)My singing is chiu these days, more leakage of air and i definitely can't hold my breath that long. can't even do the lover's concerto lalala in one breath! i wonder where my diaphragm is nowadays too :P he seems to stir when i push slightly too much. Guess this is still good training when i go into labor. I can't decide if 比比 actually likes my hand placed just above the abdomen, he seems to always kick slightly in response. Yes, food is still the best stimuli. the king of all stimuli- orange. maybe he loves citrus scent infusing the placenta :)

one colleague whom I probably last chatted last month had her eyes glued on me long after she passed by my desk today. Apparently my tummy is big enough that one cannot not notice. She came back later to exclaim her shock and asked me how long into preggie I was. ^_^
I expect my neighbors to be shocked next

Sad and happy stuff

Add to Memories Share
*骑士精神*

Seen quite ugly side of human nature today, and that coming from people whom u call uncles and aunties from young, whom were supposedly close to my dad's heart, saddens me deeply. How much sacrifice can that be if bored by 6 siblings? People forget..as my hubby said. This episode makes me realize money cannot solve all problem, definitely not the way to cast your ailing mother aside or to a single elder son just becos he's eldest. My son heard me scold my uncles today and probably heard me cry later-I will nvr cry infront of people who don't deserve my tears.

Happiness comes from my son, who gave me his first huge jolt last nite, I think he's getting stronger with each day. Somehow my weight gain has stalled, maybe should eat abit more lest he turn underweight.

it doesn't matter how many children one's got..be responsible to one's health, teach him well and hope we don't become his burden next time, and if we were to, let's hope we don't get cast aside to some god-saken nursing home..money can't buy emotional care and love..

比比要减肥了

Add to Memories Share
*骑士精神*
My gynae, who is pro-natural birth, sort of chided me lightly today that my baby's on the chubby side (nicer way of saying baby's fat). 比比's assessment result at 21week6D - healthy (thank god), however tummy is close to 95% percentile! Honestly speaking, I wan't quite sure whether to be amused or not. People still comes up to me saying i need to eat more eat more cos i was pretty underweight before pregnancy (BMI 16.8), and there is the hubby always chanting 你給我吞,吞下去

I think my 比比 absorb nutrients faster than me, i attribute that to my hubby's obsese genes! At least he was plump when he was a child. Then again, I was close to 8pounds when i was born, it could be my side of genes too. My siblings and I were born fat but hmm through nurture sort of trim down quite alot

whatever that is, out goes carbo (fries, chay kway tiao, chips and even rice) and fatty meat (bacon, char siew)
More lean meat, more calcium and vitamins *making mental note*

afternote: This could have been doc's concern

halfway mark

Add to Memories Share
*骑士精神*
somehow carrying this baby makes me want to start writing again :)

can't believe it, i am past my halfway mark already. The signs are visible, if one look hard enough. But i haven't got any free seat yet, not that i need one though =__=

The tiny weeny flutters are more like bubbles now, and my baby just loves to tickle me. It can get really itchy from inside below my belly button in the middle of the day. 皮皮的小傢伙
at times i feel the physical pressure against my tummy till it gets painful, i reckon he must be pounding his back again. Bring on the kicks boy, let mummy know u are growing healthily!

my memory, hmm is getting abit fuzzy in some area, like how it took me 5mins to recall a colleague's name before send out email, how i took short cut to avoid remembering too much details about food - honey mustard is not mustard for subway, the latter sucks!
Thank god my work and studies haven't been much affected ^__^
my last leg for studies, after that more to come (childbirth studies)

weight: 50kg
pre-weight: 43.5kg

My MOS Baby

Add to Memories Share
*骑士精神*

That was how i call the little one in my tummy, and i switched from one nick to another depending on my latest cravings. I stopped short of calling him potato boy becos of the negative connotation, but no doubt the little one gonna share his daddy's fave stuff: fried food, french fries and potato chips. 3 times MOS bkfast in a week and at least once a week chay kway tiao bkfast. Most of the time when i need to hold his daddy hostage to my wild craving, i just attribute it to the "裡面的要吃"oops

He's been cooperating well, haha other than food cravings, perhaps knowing how heavy my schedule is. Some dizziness triggered by my nemesis- peh huay you on the mrt, sinus and noise bled (pregnancy rhinitis) It's baddie mommy who worked too hard and nearly succumb to full-blown stomach flu again. I need to constantly remind myself to slow down my pace...

While writing this i seemed to have felt the first flutters (or am i imagining?) When I got bored of my MFE thesis, I would be scouring for a nice chinese name for baby boy, reading up on 干支五行,preparing a few names although none come across as perfect. The task has been relegated to my sis and her boyfriend whom are more proficient and learned in that regard. The perfect name, could only be decided upon delivery.

Back to study, I need to remind myself what I am supposed to achieve out of this block leave. I am having this ticker up so that i dun need to count every time, haha

luv my iphone4, one gadget for all. posting blog entries has never been so convenient.

My voice is back! been trying out this childhood song-one of those songs that my sis and i learnt through rummaging my uncle's vast collection of cassettes when we were 7-8? stella's voice is cystal clear and very high pitched @_@

*骑士精神*
the number crunching game is seriously taking a toll on my ability to analyse non-$ matters
Not that i hate $, just feeling abit tired and burnt out

When the body isn't as tired as the mind, singing can be a good respite.
I finally got down to getting a more decent microphone for recording off-beat demos and the ipod in ear studs i have been eyeing for ages in my pursuit for a more pleasant listening experience during my train rides.

wistful thinking on my part (god grant me some time?) maybe i should go take up keyboard class just so i could visualise and vocalise the bean sprouts, should be beneficial for my vocals? really love olivia ong's vocal, how should i describe it.. her voice is akin to a nicely brewed coffee

okay, i need a nice holiday too...

不完美讓我更期待 期待下一次... ... ...
朋友說的好

I guess i have anticipated beyond what they could give,
they have always been my energizer bunnies (no offense) without fail, especially when living takes a toll out of me.

I wasn't angry, wasn't disgrunted, but simply 不舒服 .. i didn't get the liberation that i was so used to right after their concerts. 演唱會已經無形中成了我人生的一次又一次洗禮

相信自己 相信他們的音樂 演唱會是其次!
期待下一次的擁抱!
