Feeling - bloated

as title implies....mummy & daddy are so proud of our Baby when Baby showed us the strong flickering heartbeat on thur over our review.....thank you Baby...muacks muacks!!!

it was raining while we are having our dinner @ Lot 1, can't eat too much otherwise feel bloated. After dinner wanted to have a drink thus bought Ribena w/o ice but it is still a little cold and a tad too sweet for mummy. The clinic was crowded as usual so we had to wait outside for our turn. Imagine feeling cold and nervous (about the scan later), mummy started to get butterflies in tummy again.

Saw Dr Woody who greet us with the usual statement again. Mummy have not even set my bum on the chair while replying him about feeling nauseous & bloated these few days, he immediately say let's do a scan. Mummy got so excited & nervous. After maunovering the probe on mummy's tummy, Dr Woody shouted "Mr, would you like to have a look"....daddy jumped with a "YES". Gosh how relieved and happy are we to see your little flickering heartbeat on the screen. Daddy mentioned that it's not very obvious while Dr Woody said because it's still very early unless we scan from below then will be clearer.

So off we go to 'scan from above' and daddy is certain that he catch Baby's beautiful heartbeat much clearer. Dr Woody measured Baby and Baby is about 0.25cm.

Mummy checked with Dr Woody on consumption of milk and he advised that it doesn't really benefit the baby but make mummy FAT. On the topic of fish, he said that it's okay to consume fish although there's some concerns on mercury but anyway we are are eating too much like 1kg of fish so no worries. All of us broke into laughter including himself.

We signed package and decide to pay for half and will return for next visit 2 weeks later. To continue with hormone pills, folic acid and prenatal vitamins (given only this visit).

On Friday, mummy broke the news to Grandma and she is so happy that she keep reminding mummy to take care of myself, food to avoid etc.

On Sat, Grandma called mummy again to remind mummy to be careful because it's raining and she knows mummy is out for lunch. Asked mummy why have not informed Grandpa which I should be doing so soon. Grandma wants to prepare bird's nest for us ut told her that it's too early now perhaps in the 2nd tri. Grandma get a bit paranoid and said that mummy should not drive but I assure her it's fine as I need to drive for work as well. So Grandma continue on to remind mummy not to walk too much lor. How very excited she's getting..keke.

Had a nap in the noon as felt very bloated and nauesous. Had a bad tummy ache after dinner and gota run for the loo staying in for quite a while but ache persist through the night (constipation in the noon, agony in the toilet for almost 20mins). Met Uncle Eugene and Auntie Tracy for coffee session with Nicky and saw Grandpa drove by. Coincidentally, Jiu Jiu called mummy shortly.

Reached home at about 1+am and told daddy that mummy gota remove the 'rejected food' to feel better. Guess most of the food had been digested thus all that's out could be gastric juice, abit sourish.

Sun ~ feel rather bad the whole day too since morning. Had a craving for porridge so went to Tiong Bahru and it was so so only with miserable small pcs of sliced pork and pork balls. Tried to eat very slowly for fear of being bloated and avoid the puke sensation again. Was complaining to daddy that mummy feeling a bit depressed as quite a few varieties of food that mummy love had to be avoided as of now.

We went to Motherhood fair and signed up for motherhood magazine for 2 years with a big goodies bag. Most of the people can't be bothered with mummy perhaps they would have thought it will be wasting their time since mummy's tummy is not exactly showing yet. Maternity clothings isn't that appealing thus did not buy totally. Bought a can of Frisomum since milk is running very low and it taste pretty good with Vanilla flavour. Mummy and daddy is so tempted to buy the Quinny Buzz for Baby as it's on promotion and such a good buy. We resisted the temptation and decide it's way too early to be buying a stroller at this point of time.

On the journey to IMM, mummy felt giddy and nauesous thus took a rest by closing my eyes but didn't help much to improve the situation. Tummy ache again so went to the washroom and after which tried to puke but nothing came out except for gas. Went to find daddy who is having his haircut. Decide to go for dinner and mummy had Omu rice with Fried chicken which is rather tasy but again tried to eat very slowly and not too big a portion. After buying cereals from the supermarket, decide to make our way back as mummy is feeling very tired & cold. Had to wrap myself up with shawl in the car even w/o aircon blowing away from me. Giddy thus had to close my eyes.

Upong reaching home, straight away head for the bed to rest which is really heavenly. Doze off shortly while watching TV or rather TV watching me. Had a quick nap for 30mins or so and woke to watch Garfield which is pretty funny. Got daddy to change our mattress but unfortunately mummy can't help as it was mentioned that pregnant women should not help to change their mattress so poor daddy had to do it alone. Mummy went to munch on a small box of Koko Crunch as feeling a tad hungry.

Had to do some office work which should be done yesterday but as feeling unwell & tired, had to delay till now. Of course even without completing the work, had to find time to blog since it was not updated for the last few days after the visit.

Thank you once again sweetie Baby for showing us proudly Your heartbeat! Mummy and daddy feel so blessed with Baby and we love Baby very much!
