Happy Shopping Spree

After being angered by my hubby, i went on a shopping spree with my family!

I bought a pair of shoes, some maternity wear and a Tempur lumbar support pillow! Not only that, I went for a hair treatment and a pedicure! I feel so happy after that!

I guess i m a Vain Mama! My dear sis commented that piglet is most likely a boy coz my fashion sense had gone from bad to worse.... For me, its more like, i simply refused to buy any maternity wear and i m digging clothes that can still accomodate my tummy to wear... Thus, the lousy sense of dressing!

My Bump at Week 15


This is a picture of me at week 15. Yup, I ma vain Mama to show off my bump!
Currently, i m in my 18th week! Will upload more pix of this vain Mama with the bump! :)

Slow in Reaction....

Last Sat, Pirate King & I went for my gynae check up. Upon hearing that Piglet is most likely to be a gal after the ultrasound scan, Pirate King commented: "是女的,没有燕窝吃了!"

Come to think of it, i m quite slow in reaction... Even though, he dun mean it... I m quite hurt by this comment. In these days and times, does carrying on the family surname that important?

Even though, my Mother in law emphasized that it doesn't matter whether Piglet is a gal or boy, they will still dote on it. I was like BULLSHIT! Gender does matter to them since they already have 2 女内孙, they will prefer to have a grandson this round!

No matter what, I should just filter out all these negative thoughts and feelings. I have to be happy so that Piglet will be a happy baby too!

Happy for Piglet!

I m so happy for Piglet!

My colleague just asked me whether do i mind hand me downs for baby stuff? It turns out that her sister is giving away her maternity wear and baby stuff. Of course, i dun mind hand me downs!

So now, I dun have to worry too much about buying Piglet's stuff!

Just saw my Sis's blog on her illness! I just pray that my Sis health will be better! :)

Mother & Child Connected!

Its an Universal fact! Mother & child are connected!

Yesterday, i went for my gynae check up and blood test. When Dr Chan tried to scan for Piglet's gender, Piglet's 2 little legs blocked its gentials! Thus, Dr Chan concluded that the possibility of Piglet being a gal is very high!

Y do i say Mother & child are connected? Coz all along, i dun want to know Piglet's gender. Piglet seems to know this fact by blocking its gentials! Anyway, i had already told Piglet not to show its gentials when I go for all my check ups.... I told it that I wan a surprise!

Another thing, pretty worried abt Mum's health. She is going to SGH tomorrow to see a specialist for her gastric problem! Keeping my fingers crossed that everything will be fine for Mum! Mum, i still need you to look after Piglet for me when I m done with my maternity leave!

Also, Dad & Sis had been down with diahorrea. Dad was given 2 days MC for food poisoning... Whereas poor Sis fared even worse, she went to the hospital coz she was vomitting and having diahorrea at the same time! The doc diagnosed her having weak digestive system due to inadequate rest! Keeping my fingers crossed that both of them will recover soon!

Looking forward to the weekend!

Today is Thursday..... Super sleepy.... Went to the temple early in the

Spent the last nite at my parents' place. Poor Mum, she has been feeling unwell for the past few days and she went to see the Chinese Physician yesterday. She has been diagnosed with insufficient "qi" and she really has to watch her diet. Mum complaint of the doctor's fees, $70 to see the doctor inclusive of medicine. It is even more expensive than seeing our normal GP!

I gotta missed the Redang trip in Jun 07 due to work commitments! Pirate King & I might have to pay for the cancellation charges of air tickets as the tickets had been issued! HK Aunt has agreed to go, thus we need to cancel one person only.

This weekend will be a busy one, will be having my blood test on Sat, a posible family gathering on Sat... Not forgetting having dinner with my in laws on Sunday.

Piglet's Mercedes Benz



This is the $599 Mercedes Benz that I wanted to get for Piglet yesterday at the Robinsons' sales!

Robinson was selling it for $399, it was so tempting! Imagine Piglet in it, it really has the "WOW" factor... Yup, its the vain Mummy me!

I din buy it after my Mum's advice and a lady's advice at Robinson. The lady told me that the pram is more suitable for newborns and not so when the baby is 6 months and above. Even though, it is supposed to be from 1 mth - 3 yrs old. Mum further emphasized the lady's point...

Thus, no Mercedes Benz for Piglet yet.... But Piglet dun have to worry coz its vain Mummy will buy one with the ultra "WOW" factor for it!

Funny Dream!

Last nite, i had a funny dream! I dreamt that Piglet is a girl!

Piglet is so cute in my dream, it has big eyes, long eyelashes and fat! Piglet looked almost the same as my younger sis when she was a toddler!

I told Pirate King about it, he was saying that Piglet's eyes resembled him then!

When I told Mum & Sis about my dream, my Sis says "Scully, its the opp.. Then how, eyes small small, short eyelashes and single eyelids!" She is even funnier, confirm is gal lah.... Coz i m quite vain mah...... :P

Went shopping with Mum & Sis to get fabric... Mum promised me 2 new maternity dresses! Sis rode on the bandwagon and bought some fabric to sew a skirt & a pair of pants! We met up with Doris & Harry later for tea at Orchard! Later on, we went to CK Tang where Mum bought a pair of pants, Sis a top and me a skirt! A new skirt to wear to Paul's wedding! Yipppee!

In a serious dilemma now, dunno should i get piglet's Mercedes Benz now or later? Coz Robinsons has the stroller that i have in mind on offer..... Think piglet is gonna spoilt rotten by its Mummy & Daddy.... Imagine getting a $600 Mercedes Benz for it! Anyway, like what Mum says..... Its up to me!

Gender of Piglet

2nd post within a day......

Like every parent, Pirate King is anxious to know about the gender of Piglet! For me, i rather not know coz Piglet will always be my fave child regardless of its gender!

Even though my Mother in law told me that she dun mind the gender of her grandchild but i know that she is very anxious to have a grandson. As her fave son had given her 2 granddaughters, she will prefer to have a grandson instead!

I dun wish to have such unnecessary pressure when piglet is being scanned as a boy but born a gal! I know i should not be bothered by what my Mother in law thinks... Still, i admit i m someone who will be bothered by words! Pirate King is already taken for granted... I dun want it to worsen!

Piglet, you will be forever Mummy's fave!

Baby Items

Call me kan cheong or anxious!

Ever since with piglet growing in my tummy, i have been window shopping for baby items. So far, i have listed out 3 essential items that i need to buy for piglet...

1. Baby Walker => Will cause damage to everyone except piglet coz Piglet will be on a rampage with this piece of equipment!

2. Mercedes Benz aka Baby Stroller => This is important coz we can't possibly train our arm muscles too much by carrying piglet. This is handy especially when we go out!

3. Baby Sling => To carry Piglet so that i dun have to put strain on my poor arms!

I have yet to draft out what else to prepare for the arrival of piglet..... In fact, there is 1% of nagging fear that something will happen to piglet during my pregnancy now... Kept on telling myself not to think too much... What will be, will be! Just ensure that I be happy! :)

Piglet Development!

Went for my Gynae check up last Sat!

Piglet is 15 weeks... Thus, I m into my 4th month of pregnancy!

Everything is fine for piglet, it weighs 120g and it is actively moving while doing the ultrasound scan!

Will be going for my blood test in another 2 weeks' time.... Kinda afraid to go for all these tests!

Piglet, for the sake of your well being... Mummy has to go thru all these! U must ensure that you grow fat & healthy!

Its' FRIDAY!

Its' Friday! Finally, the tough part of closing is coming to an end!

Have no plans for tonight but will be going home since Mum will be back tomorrow nite!

Told Pirate King and my Sis about my fears. Sis' conclusion is that I have too much free time to think about it... Pirate King dismissed all my fears!

Will be seeing Dr Chan tomorrow... I gotta tell him that I dun want to eat any more vitamins and fish oil! Even though, they re supposed to be good for my piglet.... Somehow i just dun feel like eating them!

To all my friends, have a good weekend ahead!
