First movement

Today marks the exact day wormy turns 19 weeks. Which means 1 more week till we reach 20 weeks which is like half of my pregnancy gone! Omg!

Few days ago, I started feeling some thing on my lower abdomen area which I wasn't sure whether it was wormy moving or my stomach growling or just me reading too much into everything. 

But after a while I start to feel some movements like something was giving me a gentle nudge from inside my belly. It was on and off and not alwyas during the same time. So I'm not really sure whether it was me imagining it again or not. Bcos every time I felt something I will put my hand on my belly but I wouldn't feel anything anymore. 

Just now I was lying in bed with a small pillow covering my tummy and suddenly I felt something. So I moved the pillow away and put my hands on my tummy and true enough I really felt it! Both with my hands and feeling it on my tummy. 

Shook my tummy for a bit and there it was for the second time! Oh joy is me! I had on a stupid grin on my face for a few mins and called the stupid husband to come in and feel it but baby decided to stop moving. Hoho! That was definitely baby moving. No more doubts about it

Hurling

You know how it feels like to hurl out your dinner and your supper all at once? It feels great! Just great! No really it feels awesome!!! 

(Don't mind my ranting. Baby, why do you make me vomit so??)

12 weeks and 4 days

Went for my 12 week check up on Sunday. I am officially in my second trimester now but still don't see the nausea and vomiting stopping :( 

Doctor said it should all stop soon. So I am keeping my fingers crossed. I am so tired of being tired. However, seeing wormy on the screen always made up for the sufferings. 

When the doctor was doing the ultrasound, wormy was moving around very actively! Even showed us "his" hand and doctor started counting the fingers. And halfway counting wormy showed both hands together on screen and doctor counted all 10 fingers! That was precious :))) 

Too bad he didn't manage to capture that scene on picture. And we also managed to see wormy on 4D. "He" looks like a real baby now. Can even see his nose bone and his legs and the umbilical cord. Can't believe I have a small tiny human being inside of me 

Stupid Pregnancy Aversions

I have heard of food aversions during the first few months of pregnancy, but for me, the aversions do not even apply to food. Sometimes i think i must be going nuts.

To date, here are some of the things that i am averse to :

1. Places (e.g shopping malls,clinic)
2. Some clothes (e.g. one tshirt i bought at the peak of my nausea)
3. Blog shops (cant stand the sight of models modeling clothes. not even maternity clothes)
4. the husband's car (can't stand the aircond smell!!!)
5. Smelling people's scent (people do have scent, smelly or nice. I can't stand both!)
6. My blanket (boohoohoo, even bedtimes are a nightmare now)
7. Turning on the aircond in the room at night (too cold makes me pukey)
8. The smell of my anti stretch mark creams =_=
9. The smell of my facial cream
10. My iPhone! (of all things!)

Baby, if you are reading this blog next time. Don't forget how much i suffered! LOL

Wormy

By now, I am 10 weeks pregnant. Yes there's a little "worm" growing inside me but baby is no longer a worm now. Last I check, there's arm and leg buds. Huhu. But the nick "wormy" has stuck. So let's call the little fetus wormy for now. 

I don't know why people only complain about the process of actually delivering the baby being painful and all. I feel, the nausea and food aversions and lack of energy. Long story cut short, my first trimester is really getting to me. 

As of today, here's a list of food and smell and products I can't stand : mushrooms, fried chicken, tomatoes, fried rice, white rice, raw fish, sight of raw meat, smell of my facial cleanser and facial cream and also my perfume (yes I've been going perfume-less :( don't come near me), smell of the husbands car aircond (weirdly enough!) and even weirder...I can't stand clothes shopping! I don't know what's up with that! And just when I need a new wardrobe to cater for my bulging tummy. 

I spend most of my days doing at least one of the following : trying to keep my meal in my stomach, trying to eat small little snacks in between meals (empty stomach makes the nausea worse), trying to not over eat during mealtimes (overeating makes me wanto puke) and it is actually not an easy feat since my appetite has been going even smaller than before and trying to sleep away my nausea 

As of now, all I can do is to countdown to the end of my first trimester and also all these stupid morning sickness which does not even happen only in the morning

And Here's the most recent picture of wormy

Wedding Day

After all the busy preparations for more than a year, our big day has come and gone. I have always wondered how it will feel like on my wedding day. Will I be able to sleep the night before (the answer is no), will I freak out on the day itself, will I trip and fall while walking down the aisle, etc



The feeling I have to say, is very surreal. But I am quite proud (ahem) to say that I did pretty well. I was calm, cool and collected. Lol! Or so I like to think. But in the morning, I only have one thing on my mind, get to church on time! Do my walk down the aisle properly without tripping and falling (actually I did trip without falling!) say my vows properly and be married! Woohoee!

After that, I was able to enjoy our big day a bit more. Although someone was all stressed out about the reception preparations and his speech while I was chilling out in the hotel room after lunch. Wahaha



But then again, It took me 1 hour just to clean off the dastardly makeup from my face and the hairspray and hairpins in my hair!

Have you ever seen any bride who takes out her camera at the main table and take photos of the deco? Lol!


Well I can't say the day went by without any hitch, but it is by far, my most memorable day of my life :) in fact, I enjoyed my wedding day!
