36w/6d

One more week and I'm officially full term. I've gained a total of 12kg now. Well, not too bad... hope the next few weeks can go easy on me.

Probably due to too much walking over the weekend, baby is kicking really actively and I can feel the contraction in my uterus for the past few days. It makes my belly rock hard and worse I had some spotting... I thought I'm going into labor anytime soon but I didn't feel any pain so Dr just told me not yet. But Dr also mentioned since I'm into 37 weeks soon so he is not too worry if baby want to pop out anytime now. Moreover, baby is already 2.9kg! It's a bit big considering my petite size. Alright alright, I shall walk more..

Third trimester has not been easy for me, past few weeks I had serious rib pain and it felt like a knife stabbing into my rib cage everytime I lie down and get up from bed. Then I constantly feel the numbness in my palm and feet. Not to mention the frequent urination, short of breath, fatigue and STRETCH MARK!!!! If there is one thing I'm happy with, my feet size has grown one size bigger, I hope it stay in this size so no more kid department shopping for my shoes after this.

Anyway, it's the final countdown now. I can't wait to see my baby come into the world; in my arm crying and kicking. Pray for my baby to be healthy and strong, pray for a smooth delivery process with no complication, pray for a enjoyable confinement period for baby, the dad and myself.
