I am Super Pregnant

It hard to believe that I'm already in final trimester of pregnancy. 40 days from now I'm going to be 40 weeks pregnant. This means that I will be holding my new little baby in my arms in a few short months. Ermm.. time flies so fast huh..

Right now, everything is getting hard for me. With the tremendous increasing weight, I feel so frumpy and clumsy. I feel so huge, exhausted and uncomfortable in just doing anything. I've difficulty in moving around, walking (40 km per hour.. ermm dah macam rupa penguin jer), standing, sitting or even bending to pick things up. My peaceful sleep at night day has gone due to baby's moving/kicking or urge to urinate. Lately I'm starting to have more back pain. Ouchh.. This all discomfort and tiresome makes me wish that my baby would come asap and get this pregnancy over.

Everyone that I met keep asking when I'm going to be explode and there is no where to hide. How could I possibly hide with a belly the size of Mount Everest?



Mommy is 34 weeks pregnant



Look!! How big mommy rite now..


At this moment, I haven't done anything yet in welcoming my little precious one. I really need to get everything done by this weekend, so that I can simply sit back and await for the final moment. I've to wash all the baby clothes and napkins, figure out what to pack in my hospital and baby bag and also tidy up the messy room. Huh.. there is a lots of job and of course I do need hands to do it all done.

MGTT again

An easy, non-invasive way to monitor for the first signs of gestational diabetes among pregnant women is by testing urine at every antenatal visit to trace of protein and sugar. Since my urine still shown abnormal on my last visit, I was advised to do the Modified Glucose Tolerance Test (MGTT) again.

Yesterday, I can't say it is a good day for me. I had a long day at the clinic to have my MGTT done. This is my third times doing this test. I need to fast from 10 p.m the night before and took the fasting blood sugar the next morning. Then they had me to drink an orange sugary drink. It tasted so damn sweet. Yuckss... Luckily, I'm doing so well with it.

After 2 hours, I need to some back and take another blood sample. Within that 2 hours.. I can't eat anything or have any sweet drink.. only plain water. Seksanya....... Just because it is for my precious little ones.. i'll do it anything.


The result...???

.......4.56 mmol/l for fasting and 5.30 mmol/l for 2 hours post pranial. Yay.. it's normal.



Read more about this disorder in this article: Understanding Gestational Diabetes.



Everything else looks normal as usual. My current weight is 57 kg. Increasing 1 kg from last 2 weeks. Ermmm..not so bad huh...

My gynae have advised me to get some good rest and I may start preparing for my baby stuffs. All the procedure finished at 1 p.m and I was badly need something heavy to eat that time. My little ones keeps kicking me from inside.. thump..thump..thump.. and my hands is shaking when i had my lunch.

Hopefully I won't go through this test again. Pleaseeeeeeee... :(

Is It a BOY or a GIRL ?!

My little ones inside my belly is getting bigger each day and it makes me starting to guess the sex of my baby. Is it a boy or a girl?! Ermm.. actually I feel totally difference compared to the previous pregnancy experiences. Harap2 betul la firasat ibu mengandung.. hehe.. 

I have done the ultrasound scan on my antenatal check-up last month. The doctor explained everything to me all the away from my bladder all the way down to my babies toes! When the doctor reveal the sex of my baby, I feel so surprised. However, I still not 100% confident with it. Is it true?? I have plan to do the 3D or 4D scan later on. Let's wait and see what is the result could be.


Boy or Girl?

What am I having now?



David or Victoria Beckham??

2nd Trimester

I'm now about 18 weeks pregnant, and my first trimester is over! The early pregnancy symptoms that I have experienced over the past few weeks started to fade. Nausea, vomit and a sickness begin to subside. I thought I'd never get over the feeling again. A new season has opened its door on me, I'm feeling much better and great that at times I forget the fact that there is another person being developed in me. My 'bump' has started to show off and everybody had noticed bout it. Yes, I'm PREGNANT

How my baby's growing now?



Head to rump, your baby is about 5 1/2 inches long (about the length of a bell pepper) and he weighs almost 7 ounces. He's busy flexing his arms and legs — movements that you'll start noticing more and more in the weeks ahead. His blood vessels are visible through his thin skin, and his ears are now in their final position, although they're still standing out from his head a bit. A protective covering of myelin is beginning to form around his nerves, a process that will continue for a year after he's born. If you're having a girl, her uterus and fallopian tubes are formed and in place. If you're having a boy, his genitals are noticeable now, but he may hide them from you during an ultrasound.

Here's the ultrasound scan of my new baby. No idea about the gender yet. All seems well except the placenta is slightly low. The doc has planning to do the scan again at 26 weeks for placenta location. Hopefully by that time everything would be okay. InshaAllah.





** I have felt a few little fluttering and movement from the baby, not very strong at the moment, but it is lovely to know that the baby is moving around in there. I can't believe I'm more than half way through this pregnancy.
