pregnancy days

March 9, 2009 / 17 weeks
It's a boy and he's due Aug.11! Ah, my skin becomes duller and dark spots and constipation appear. I become emotional. When I talk to my baby or read a book on pregnancy, the happy or concern tears well up in my eyes. I've gained 3 kg. I need to go shopping for pregnancy clothes soon.

March 17 / 18 weeks
I have dreams every night and sometimes get lower leg spasms during sleep. Guess I need to have more milk. I'm not interested in cooking. Luckily, my hubby's cooking skill is much better and he likes to do it.

March 22 / 19 weeks
My baby's muscles are stronger. I like to touch my belly and feel his movement. I can't wait to go to see Swan Lake performed by Ballet and Orchestra of Mariinsky Theatre with my hubby and baby at the end of March!

Dharma Drum Mountain-April 19 / 23 weeks

I've gained 6 kg, but people said my stomach looked small. My baby is energetic and weighed 604g at 22 weeks.

May 4 / 25 weeks
We started attending the free classes for expectant mothers on May 2. It's about postpartum care. I plan to attend lamaze and birthing classes later. I've gained 8 kg. My baby weighed 1 kg and moves a lot, especially when I lie down for bed. Thank my friend and sis-in-law for giving me the pregnancy clothing.

May 8 / 26 weeks

I redeemed an award with Asia Miles so we had free dinner at La Brasserie. My baby is strong and likes to kick. I can see the waves on my belly. I love to feel him moving. cute!

Many women guess I have a baby boy. They look at my belly and see how I'm carrying. If you're carrying high and wide, the baby is predicted to be a girl. If you're carrying low and in front, you're deemed to be carrying a boy.

I hate hot and humid weather which makes my sensitive skin uncomfortable. Ah, itchy belly and neck~ Even I'd suffered from nettle rash for almost 2 weeks, so I couldn't help but take some medicine. Hope it didn't hurt my baby.

June 6 / 30 weeks
My baby already weighed 1.8 kg at 30 weeks. a little bit bigger. I have to diet to control his weight. Because of my eye problem I hope he won't be over 3.2 kg when he's born.

June 19 / 32 weeks

We bought a Chick UV sterilizer and dryer with 3 free glass feeding bottles $3680 at the department store. I've gained 9 kg and my baby weighed 2 kg. I used to have pain on the right hip because my baby has loved to be on the right side and I usually feel all his kicks on the left. I wonder why I have a sore left waist recently.

July 25 / 37 weeks
I went for an antenatal check yesterday. I've gained 13 kg. My baby grows fast and likes to move. I guessed it! He's already 3 kg at 37 weeks! BIG enough. My belly is huge and I’ve got edema. The skin looks thinner so I can see and feel fetal movements clearly.
I'm busy with my schoolwork of summer graduate program. We haven't given our baby a name. I'll look words up in the dictionary when staying at the hotel room for mothers and newborn babies.
