Beanie hit 9 weeks yesterday on Christmas Day :) As we had a Christmas Lunch at Aunty Emily's, we told the rest of them - Zack's extended family :) Aunty Emily was so sweet, the minute i arrived, she pulled me to her and asked if i'm pregant.. hahaha.. she looked so happy. Melvin (Zack's cousin) told her. Zack told Melvin last week and his reply was hilarious: "Congratulations and your nightmare has just begun." *guffaws* Melvin got a 5 month old baby boy :)
Melvin brought his 5-month old son along and was giving us lessons on how to carry the baby, things to take note of etc.. Zack is already very good at it but not me! I am terrified of carrying babies cos i'm afraid i'll drop them. Imagine dropping a baby! :S It's so sweet how little Ian went from uncle to uncle.. all of Zack's cousins seemed very good at handling babies. FYI, Zack's generation consists of 10 male cousins and only 2 female ones! And the next generation from the Chan family starts from little Ian.. a boy. So go figure which gender we most likely are expecting.. hahahha! Zack's hoping fervently for a gal but i'll be very surprised if it's a gal :P
As for mummy-to-be, i havent been feeling too awesome lately. The usual... queasy, indigestion, hungry all the time.. and lately, slight nauseous. I only puked the day when we came back from Maldives - must be the flight back. But have been gagging whenever i smell certain smells like cigs and some other stuff. I usually am able to hold it all in but i've been a mass of discomfort. It's like a vicious cycle.. i get REALLY hungry, then i eat.. then i get bloated and uncomfy.. after awhile, i get hungry again! On and on it goes.... Sometimes i wish i can puke, maybe it will make me feel better somewhat. But its all part and parcel of pregnancy and i'm kinda glad to feel this way, it makes it a little more real for me.. hahaha. Not that i need to puke to feel that way... i'm starting to have a pooch!!! As long as it's due to my uterus expanding and not my overeating :P
Let's just say i no longer look the same :P waist is thicker, a little tummy. I'm comforted to read on the birth club forums that other MTBs are like this too! And it seems that you will show faster if u are slimmer and its quite true, most of them are like UKsize 6/8.. i'm about there too.. so... hmmmm........
Gosh.. it's after lunch now and i'm really NOT feeling good.. it's like the food cant get down but all choked up along the oesophagus.. *sigh*
