Pregnant @ 21st Week & Introducing Princess Liz

This is my 21 week 2 days being Pregnant and finally my baby decided to show herself.. Yes, Its a baby ger... Our Princess... Her Daddy had confirmed her name as Liz, so she shall be our Princess Liz!!! This name is selected among the list of the 1 syllable names... Other options are like Val, Wynn ("wind") lolx... all sorts of furnie names... Chosen One! Liz Lam!!! lolx... Wilx is super happy to know tt its a ger cos he loves baby gers... but for me, actually i prefer a boy cos Wilx is the Only Son, Only Grandson, so if its a boy at least ill have peace from his granny.. but then, Princess are more lovely... so since decided that Its Princess Liz, We shall love her and await patiently for the arrival of our gift...

Tummy is starting to grow bigger n bigger, more clothes out of the wardrobe and more new clothes going in!! lolx.. i am growing out of my clothes le.. haha...

the above pic is taken by wilx, he claims tt he likes the pic.. lolx Taken on my own.. wanna capture the growth of my tummy.. lolx...

After the checkup at Paragon we went to get our 1st buy for Princess Liz... Her Milk Bottle Sterallizer & Warmer... Its on OFFER and its a great deal... its the 3rd time we went there and finally to get it... Did some survey on price and this load of stuff cost us $188 which is cheaper then getting it elsewhere...

Gt it at Taka with GREAT effort cos we decide to go on the last day of fair which we tot is 28 Mar 2011, and guess what, when we reach there, they are tearing down. the fair ended on the 27th instead... Faintz... lucky we went up to the bb department and found the last set there... haha... So happy... Well Done Uncle Lam & Auntie Tan!!!

Life as a Pregnant Woman

Am 20 weeks 4 Days Pregnant...
Baby is starting to grow and show himself/herself inside my tummy...

Life as a pregnant woman is kinda boring.. besides eating and sleeping nuttin seems to be my main concern now..
Cravings seem to have came back since it stopped few weeks back and now i will tend to wake up in the middle of the night feeling hungry and searching for food...
OMG!! gonna control b4 i put on too much weight...
Hubby had been mad with me for waking up hunting for food.. haha... but no choice...

Giddiness attacked me these 2 weeks.. on and off ... the feeling is bad...
Mum is worried cos she is afraid tt my low blood sugar might affect the baby... but according to doc, everythg is ok and its fine... =)
Found some new loves recently... but cant overdose on all these...
Royce Chocolate... The only one that is non-alcoholic... haha

Chili stingray, from Bedok south market... My FAVOURITE la!!! since im a teenager i had been loving it...

Seaweed... this is a new love... and freaking hooked to it... i can finish 1 whole pack in a few hrs... keep munching non stop... lolx...

Dressing up is now my new pain... i'm growing out of most of my clothes... so seems that i have to replenish the no of stuff in my new wardrobe.. hehe... Bought 2 new Maxi dresses at a Offer Price... Weeee...

Love maxi dresses... this is the love that shld b able to stay wif me throughout my pregnancy.. haha...

Lucky me... hubby just called saying that he will pick me up frm wrk n send me to meet the gers later... WeeeeeEEEE... *happy*

What a day!!

I had decided not to post new pics of my baby after several attempts to upload the pic in the direction i wan it to be.. Stupid...

Okay... Topic for the day will be how will you feel working in a company for months with nothing on your plate for you to do...
Put it in simple will be, you are paid to come in at 9am, sit in front of your lappy act busy (by doing nothing and suppose to avoid to much of facebooking and msn) Lunch at 12pm, 1pm continue to act, leave at 6pm OTD!! you get paid on a monthly basis, fixed amount..

honestly, when u thk abt it... sounds shiok ar... but when u r in it.. u feel like killing yourself... haha... just like how i am now.. almost bored to death.. i am living a life of a pig in office, come in at 930am eat breakfast till abt 1030, tibit a little, munch a little, then lunch at 12pm, buy fruits & tibits back. 1pm sit back in front of my lappy munching fruits, abt 4 - 5 packs per day okie.. super healthy okay... 3pm start munching tibits again... 430pm head down to buy a drink or/and some light snacks like bao, lo mai kai etc... end work at 6pm SHARP!!

Anyone keen to take a job like tt or like to exchange?? lolx...
honestly, no motivation, no morale, no mood... dunno y i come work also... i guess its jus for my monthly salary ba...

i shall bear with it and reconsider after i give birth... dun wanna waste my maternity benefits...
ARGH!! i need entertainment!!

My Signs of Pregnancy

Hmmm... just wanna share with you guys how i realised/suspected that im pregnant...

All women are different but i guess there will be similarity in a way or another..

I'm a Smoker, smoking had been part of me, part of my daily life..

when the day cigg is irritating you and the thought/smell/every single puff makes you feel like puking... hmmm... something is wrong...

I thought its normal cos there's spotting, i thought period came, the only thing different is that the flow is a little too little, 1st day's flow kinda like day 5/6 (mine is usually 7 days period, 6 weeks cycle)...

You are not too early to notice these signs and to find out that you are pregnant. All this symptoms hit me on the 6 weeks after my last period which is norm...

different ppl have different symptoms and signs... i'll be curious to know how i will notice/suspect the arrival of my next baby. =)

2nd Date with Our Precious!!!

29 Dec 2010
Feeling: Worried
Location of Precious: Left
Size: 23mm
Stage of Pregnancy: 8.7 Weeks
This visit to Dr Chan is kind of worrying as various incidents occurred within the last 2 weeks...
Some random kids accidentally hit my tummy and cause slight bleeding, trying to control diet end up gastric, slight pain at tummy area...

so this visit my main intention is to get assurance her, telling me that my baby is ok, everything is fine... this visit was on appointment basis but the waiting time is still as disaster as the previous. we waited for almost 3 hrs before our turn... i realize im getting relatively impatient recently, i guess its due to the hormones change.

Our second touch with our baby was good, his heartbeat is faster and stronger comparing to the 1st date. He had also grown by 20mm as compared to the last. wooo... in just 2 weeks, my little precious had grown more than 5 times the size. at this rate its going, im gonna see him soon... *grinz* 8 more months....

So glad everything regarding baby is doing fine, the only things thats not doing good is the mummy, ME. Im having flu and i dare not take any medication as im unsure if its suitable for me to comsume at this point. Lucky i manage to get some flu tablets frm Dr Chan and according to her if fever occurs, its ok for me to take the normal Panadol. Shoooo~~~ at least i know what to you if fever really hits...

This visit to the gynae was fully accompanied by my hubby-to-be and We are sure of what we want and what we going to do next. (alot of things happened in the last 2 weeks. For more details can refer to Mummy Angela's own blog. )
I'm starting to feel the excitement being a mummy.

1st Date with Our Previous

14 Dec 2010, 1st Visit to my Gynae at Hougang, Dr Chan
Feeling: Scary, Fear
Location of Precious: Left
Size: 4mm
Stage of Pregnancy: 6.1 Weeks
This is my first visit to the Gynae with and without my Bf/Hubby-to-be.
Why do i say with and without, i went alone and he came to join me at the later time.
Reason, need to run to a GP to get MC for his reservist in order to accompany me for this visit.

Reach the clinic at about 11am after Fion called to help me get an appointment for the visit. Dr Chan is also the Gynae that Fion visits when she is carrying Kayden.
The feeling when i first stepped into the clinic was horrible. All the women in there are all seated down wearing loose clothings with Tummies bloated like a giant balloon which might burst anytime... they look dangerous.... comparing to all of them, me as a young mum i really dunno where i stand and what i should do.

Wilx managed to reach there before its my turn. honestly the first date with our baby is odd... why is it so?
i guess its because i'm unsure of the situation at that point and unsure of whats coming up next. The only thing i am sure is that when Dr Chan ask me " Have you two decided to keep the baby?" our immediate answer is "YES"
I dunno why i said Yes although i am still unsure at that point but i guess Yes is the answer that is pleasing to everyone.


The process of the scan was okie just that its a little different comparing to visiting a GP... Baby's heartbeat wasnt really fast but it was clear enough for me and wilx to hear. and through the monitor, we can see our baby, which was only 4mm..

After the scan, Dr Chan did a calculation base on my last period to see when's the EDD of my baby.. Its 8 Aug 2011... Hopefully a National Day Baby...
Doc said that Baby is healthy just that its relatively unstable due to the bleeding. I will have to be extra careful and have to monitor any spotting tat occurs..

A little Tip from Pris who just gave birth to a lovely princess. Wear a pantyliner through your first trimester if bleeding ever occur so that any spotting can be noticed and monitored constantly. Bleeding is not a rare thing to happen during the first trimester, it happen to some pregnant women. We just have to take note that if it really occurs, monitor the situation and report to the Gynae if it worsen or prolonged for too long.

This is a delayed post, will update regarding our 2nd Date and also the various events that happened during this period of time.

Life Experience

In Life different people experience different things..
what you went through will craft out your character, your thinking and You!
but this might or might not be true...

there are people who decides to believe and live the life as their experience taught them..
but some will challenge and hope to find a different way out..
there is no right or wrong...

as long as there is no regrets, you made the right choice, chose the right path...

To me i feel tt as long as i have a backup plan for myself. im safe..
i dun care if the path i chose is right or wrong, as long as i know what i am doing and how i should support myself if anything fails, i am safe..

May all my family, friends and love ones have a safe and peaceful journey in life =)

Starting the March

February 2011 ending in a sweet & joyous moment for me..
But my March started of with a pain in our hearts..

March 08 2011, Popo Left the world early in the morning at 0822hrs...
received the news via phone call frm my dad..
Am shocked and stunned by the news.. dad gave alot of instructions and through the phone i can feel that he is unsure of what to do and he is on the verge of breaking down.. but lucky daddy is strong.. he can still thk and make arrangements systematically..

went to NYP to locate my sis as she is uncontactable... it took us 3 hrs to find her and get her out of sch...

we didnt go to the wake straight as im instructed to head home straight to do some preparation... have to tie a red cloth ard my tummy with an ang bao and some "shi Liu'' leaf
this is to protect my bb...

went there only in the late afternoon when most of the thgs are settled..
i was shocked when dad informed me tat he will be the one paying for the funeral...
its like "arent they contributing?? what happened to the other two???"
i came to know that the other 2 went to Popo's home empty handed and empty pocket.. When mummy approached them, they simply say "i got no $$".. OMG!! WTH!!!
its not like my daddy is rich and owns gold mines lor... my grandfather's wake yrs back the same thgs happened and now still the same shit... they are taking my dad for granted...

nvm... pay shall be it... throughout the wedding comments fly ard non stop.. asking my dad to give tips to workers, to ppl, pay money.. even a $2 pack of rice they will claim from dad.. and guess what, they claim their meals too... they tot my dad is some kinda welfare organization lor..
OMG... i dun understand how can they claim themselves to be popo's kids... the only thg the can afford to pay is ciggerattes and alcohol... WTF!!!

so insensible old ppl.. even we kids know what is right and what's wrong lor..
the most stunning act is that they can ask my dad regardin splitting of assets at the end of the funeral.. WTH WTF!!! Popo had been in the home for almost 10yrs with no savings and all funeral expenses is frm dad, now they asking abt assets...

I dun understand what are they thking at that point, arent they ashame of their own behaviour..
sickening human beings.. ugly human beings...

now everythg is over, just hope that popo will R.I.P and bring better luck & Health to daddy and mummy...
