Bria is now 32 weeks.. and growing.. Everyone says i look very small for a mom with a 32 weeks baby inside me.. At first, that got me worried, until Dr Lim told me Bria is growing at a healthy size. It's true that from the back, i don't look like i am pregnant at all. There's a good and bad side of it i guess. Bad side being that i get irritated people over taking me from behind when i walk on the streets. Irritated because they don't know i am pregnant and probably thinks i am just walking really slowly to hog the streets and cause human jams.. haha.. = )
Every passing day brings with it increased anticipation, as well as anxiety for me. I've been trying to tidy up the house and completing my baby shopping these few weeks.. Both are more or less 80-90% done. Just need to wait for the baby cot to come next week. And for the maid to arrive so i can finish up packing my house. I actually went crazy several times trying to prepare the house for both the baby and the maid. Till now, K and I are still trying to decide on a maid to bring home with us. I need someone to start end November. The new ones are all still in their home countries and their passports would take a long time to prepare. And the experienced ones are already in Singapore, so they need to start ASAP. So we are kinda stuck now.
Plus, I am growing more and more weary and tired these days.. Even a 1 hour dinner outside makes me very tired. I have also been experiencing this stitch-like pain in the lower right of my tummy for the past few days, and it makes walking and getting up from a sitting position really painful. Mom and Sis commented that Bria will most probably be born early, cause I look really tired for someone who is 32 weeks pregnant, plus the fact that my feet have swelled for the second time. Mom says labor will start soon after my feet swells for the 3rd time.. Interesting.. = )
Sigh.. i feel as if i am already in confinement. Life is so monotonous at home, but yet i am too tired to go out. I've 4 story books to complete, but yet i don't have time. Time just seems to fly by and nothing much gets achieved. And yet so much is happening. The baby is coming, the maid is coming, plus we're getting a car, and moving house.. K and I are still trying to decide which car to buy. We have also been viewing plenty of properties recently with his parents. Crazy as it may sound, but I'm actually quite excited at the prospect of moving in with my in-laws.. = )
This weekend i will be staying over at Dad's place for one night. The maid has been sent back, and Mom's going for a weekend Batam trip, so Sis and I are taking turns to look after Dad. I just hope everything will be okay, cause we are both kinda "handicapped" now, so the two of us aren't really the best combination to take care of each other! = )
