A Decision

I always wonder why does woman tends to cut their hair short after they got pregnant. Now, as one of them, I fully understand the rationale of it.

Just 2 Days ago, me n 3 other colleagues decided to go to Sushi Tei for lunch (I ordered Chicken Katsu Curry rice nothing raw.) it's situated inside a shopping mall. Beside me being breathless from walking from the MRT station to the destination, I am Perspiring like hell. I thought that it will be alright as we are all in a air-conditioned place for lunch but no, not only did I keep perspiring, I had used about 2-3 sheets of tissue to wipe off my sweats... And I couldn't stop complaining about how hot and stuffy it is there when all my other colleagues says the place is normal temperature.... (and the air-con is working)

Sound Crazy huh? After we got back to the office after lunch, I learnt that I might be only able to wash my hair after I give birth during the one month confinement.... I'm having middle length hair people, Not to mention Singapore's weather Hot and Humid!! although I might be only getting my confinement in December, consider not that hot period, but not washing hair? my scalp do get oily and my hair is always plastered to my head at the end of a day, How to TAHAN not washing my hair? Not only it will stink, I will feel uncomfortable, I'm afraid that my scalp will have problem after that!!!

So I Made a decision....

From:

TO:

I Made the decision to say good bye to my long hair.. which I always have since my Secondary school days...
SO, Good Bye Hair...

In memories
BTW, if you are wondering where did I get my haircut, it's at J-saloon located at Far East Plaza, Hairstylist name: Bell.

Week 33: Gynae Visit

Do you look forward to the Gynae appointments like I do? 

I'm 33 weeks~~ saw my dear boy looking healthy and comfy today at the gynae! (Thru the Ultrasound of course!)


Not sure about u all but I can totally make out the face of my dear boy from this u/s scan :D
He have Chubby Cheeks!! such a cutie...

OK gynae tell me to watch my diet and do exercise... seriously besides walking I don't think there is any other exercise I'm able to do, I can't even fit into the maternity one piece swim suit that I had bought 2-3 months ago boobs and tummy are simply too big for it and My boobs will burst out from the normal swimwear that I usually wore pre-pregnancy..

According to my gynae... There will be NO cakes, chocolates, Ice-cream, durians for me.... the only fruit that gynae tell me to have is Apple, only apples... well guess some strawberries, pineapples, kiwis and pears wont hurt too... keke!

I've complain about the pain in my hand, wrist and some of the joints in the fingers to the him, n according to him, it's because of water retention!!! Due to gravity, when we sleep the fluid in our body will flow upwards or even out (horizontally *think of a water bottle laying flat*) and thus cause the water retention in the hands.

Then, while the day pass and if I'm are sitting down/standing a lot it's my legs turn to get the water retention. That explains why my feet are usually swollen at the end of the day and I woke up with pain in my hands.... Gynae say: 'Don't worry, all these will disappear after you give birth.' Woah, so that also means I have to endure with these for another 7+/- weeks... T_T

BTW incase you all are wondering, my Gynae is Dr Benjamin Tham from W.C Cheng & Associates at Thomson Medical Centre a very nice uncle, friendly too.

Unbearable heat n increasing appetite....

I AM 32 WEEKS NOW!!!!!

Counting down~!! another 8 more weeks my dear baby boy will be out!!

As for now beside having occasionally swollen feet, the next enemy is the heat! I feel like a walking oven, everywhere I go must be Air-conditioned.

My work Place
It's so stuffy and hot in the office, even though it's already full Air-conditioned,I ave to have a mini fan blowing at me all the time.

Home
When I'm not in the kitchen looking for food or dining table eating, you will be able to find me siting directly in front of a fan, sometimes with air-con on.
When it comes to sleeping time, the air-con is on to 22 deg with level 3 fan, Hubby is complaining that the room is suitable to raise a polar bear at the rate im going. BUT hello!! I woke up cover in sweats all the time. Seems like the temperature is not cooling enough.

REALLY irritating right?

The next bad thing is that I can't stop eating! Is like I have to have something in my mouth every other hour... 

Biscuits, Chocolates, fruits, yoghurt, basically anything that I can lay my hands on (edible of course) Healthy or unhealthy or not I'll pop it into my mouth... So that this rate I'm eating, my weight really increases A LOT, now I'm worry what my gynae will says on this coming Tuesday appointment...

SNACKS
I feel so guilty eating so much and gaining so much of weight... I know the baby need to 'fat out' in the last trimester but I didn't foresee that I'll be joining his expedition in Fat Out too..... OMG!! Now I'm so damn worried that I wont be able to lose the weight after the dear boy is out... I don't want to look like a fat aunty (I'm only 24!!!)
BEN & JERRY'S!!!

IF only they don't taste so good.......alright... I'm off to get something to much on now... UPDATE SOON.
