Exercise

The doc told me to do some exercise due to my excessive weight gain (tak la over weight sgt, but 5-6 kg in 5 weeks??, that's overweight!!!). And since I have water retention problem, I can't really do 30 mins walk. So, chose to follow the exercise in this DVD

Actually, this DVD has been my fav DVD since I was in the UK lagi. I started with gym. But then I couldn't really commit. Yelah with the transportation, parking, time, and so I found this DVD. The rating was quite good. And it has a 15 mins chair exercise, for pregnant or disable people. Believe it or not, masa dulu, if I really do it at least 2-3 times a week, it really toned my body. Not the one with chair work out la. The full body work out. And now, I starting to do the 15 mins chair exercise. With the calcium vitamin + chair workout = less pain, healthier body.

Highly recommended!!!

Week 28

Week : 28

Weight Gain : 12 kg +/-

Baby Weight: 1 kg

I met Dr Guna last saturday. Had my monthly check-up. I am currently in my third trimester and counting my days for the BIG day. The doc has confirmed that everything's normal. There were few issues that I raised during my check-up this time

My weight gain

As you can see, I gained almost 12 kgs for the past 6-7 months. And half of the weight I gained for the past 5 weeks. The doc was quite concerned. He told me that I should do some exercise i.e. walking 30 mins, 3 times a week. But not at Midvalley!! Sigh! Maybe he saw me and hubby in Midvalley, hehe. Anyway, that was before I told him that I am currently experiencing swollen legs and fingers. So, he prescribed me some vitamins for calcium and also some other advice. I did asked if I should reduce my food consumption. He said, "No". Weight gain during pregnancy may not caused totally by food consumption but also relates to other factors i.e. water retention. And that is what I am currently experiencing.

Baby's gender

I was quite concerned if during my previous check up, the doc has mistakenly told us that I am carrying baby girl. So, this time I asked him again, is it a girl? Yes... it is. I am thrilled. Cuz mom bought few red sweaters and flowery jeans when she visited UK. And frankly, I don't mind if it is a girl or a boy. As long as I have a healthy baby, that's good enough for me.

My birthday present

I received this on my birthday... Ipod Touch 8GB

I am currently enjoy the music with my baby..

And I love it!! Feeling my baby dancing, kicking and turning around!!

It's something that me and my baby can do together..

Thanx hubby for the lovely gift!!!

27 weeks

Week : 27

Weight Gain : 10 kg +/-

10 kg, I know.. what a drastic change..I just bought a new electronic weight scale. And I know, this time, the scale reading is accurate compared to my previous scale. And I can't believe how much weight I have put on for the past few weeks. And just imagine the physical changes at my body. Sometimes I just can't bear looking at myself. My face is getting round, swollen legs and fingers, tummy is getting bigger (although I am soon to be 7 months pregs, but some people say that my tummy is small..).

Right now I'm just counting my weeks for my delivery. I never thought that pregnancy would be this tough. I mean, my swollen legs have made me difficult to move around. There's only one sandal that is comfortable for me currently. And each morning, I just can't bear the pain cuz it was soo pain whenever my feet touches the ground. My swollen hand has also made me difficult to hold things.. but it was not as pain as my leg..

What makes me wonder, why am I the only one in the family who has this symptom during pregnancy? neither my two sisters nor my mom had swollen legs and fingers. Different people may experience different symptoms, ey? The funny thing was that my mom made a general conclusion, maybe cuz my mom and both my sisters were married to Pahang bloke, and I got married to Penang bloke instead, that differs me to the others... hahha... not a convincing reason but.. funny!

So, that's the story about me and my pregnancy. I actually have a lot to share.. but enuff for now.. till then.. adioss!!

Week : 25
Weight gain : 6 +/-

Waahh.. dah lama rasanya tak update blog ni...agak2 adalah bersarang sikit2..
Seperti yang dah diberitahu sblm ni, masuk tahun baru nih, I've been transferred to HQ of EMAS, Heitech.
And at the same time, I still need to carry out my usual task in EMAS since Sherry, my replacement still on holiday di US.. That was the promise that I gave to Corrine, my boss in EMAS. Yelah, tak sanggup leaving her with pile of work, and I thought that since I just report myself in Heitech, my work tak lah byk sgt...kot..

Well.. so far, dah 4 hari masuk kerja, and I've got tasks waiting for me in Heitech. And at the same time, ada byk juga keja in EMAS. I've been in and out of the office to carry out 2 jobs at one time. I'm not trying to be superwoman, but sometimes, I like to occupy myself with all the works and doing things that I like.. In Heitech, I was unaware that my role is 'that' huge! I mean, huge for me la.. I'm still the Business development Exec, but in different industry. I'll be preparing proposals and finding business opportunity in Financial Sector for Heitech. And so far, I have a good mentor that teach me along the way. And I have a serious catching up to do. Everyday, read, study, read, study, meetings... Tapi takperlah.. hope kerja kali nih will stay longer.. cuz I'm tired jumping around.. macam masa blaja dulu...

My pregnancy, so far ok. I've been playing and communicating with my baby alot. I have pain especially my leg and heel. Evey morning, bangun tido, sure sakit kaki. Alhamdulillah, no cramp, besides the one masa tgh2 pregnancy dulu.. Janganlah cramp time hubby on-call.. or else takder siapa nak bgn tolong urut kaki. This week is also my last week in 2nd trimester. Sedar tak sedar, I'll be in my 3rd trimester by end of next week. And starting from this month, the doc will start talking about labour. And I think I have to start reading about labour jugak so that I have question to ask the doc nanti. As far as baby stuffs are concerned, since sale pun dah habis, I've stop hunting and shopping around for baby stuff. Tunggulah sale bulan depan (rasanya ada megasale) and I should start buying the necessary stuff.

I have 10 days to enjoy my last 'quarter of a century' life. Lepas nih dah masuk 26, and suddenly rasa macam dah tua. But I know, this year will be better and meaningful, insya Allah. I've got my birthday present. Tapi tak boleh share ngan you all lagi. And although birthday present dah dapat from hubby, tapi I still have not used it yet. I'm waiting for the day to officially use it. On 17th January, I'll share what I get from hubby. And hubby also dapat cuti lama since he is finishing his general meds rotation soon. So, on friday we plan to balik Kepala Batas Penang, his hometown, and on monday til wed, we will be in penang island, for holiday. Actually, our trip to Penang Island was postphoned, since our reception in Penang dulu. Hopefully kali ni trip ni menjadi la..

Also, I had a great weekend. After a looong time, finally hubby dapat off hari Ahad. Actually, on Saturday ajak hubby pi PD, since my parents have an apartment kat Tanjung Tuan. Tapi we were out to buy Hubby's birthday present (yes, he got to choose his present.. ) til late, and hubby baru balik on-call, so we decided to cancel our trip. Hubby's birthday is on 14th Jan, 3 days earlier than me.. On Sunday, hubby spent all his time with me. He said, "today, we will do anything that you want!" I mean.. Yey!!! How often will I get that opportunity. So, we started by having breakfast ( nasi lemak) beside the pool, and we went for swimming later. That's the first time hubby terjun dlm kolam kat rumah, and that was the first time I went for swimming during my pregnancy. Then later, we went to The curve to watch 'I am Legend'. Again, I can't remember when was the last time we went out for movie. Cuz everytime we decided to go out for a movie, we end up shopping instead.. Although my weekend may sound nothing interesting, just a normal weekend, but for me, it means a lot, cuz it's not easy to wake up at 9 am during weekend, having hubby beside me...

Hem.. dah lama sgt tak tulis, kali ni berjela-jela pulak..
Til next time, daaa.....
