Feel the bun kicking for the first time, I think

I'm at my 15w/5d today and I think I felt our baby's movement for the first time! I'm not very sure though coz it might be just gas rumbling or simply due to the abdominal stretched.

So I was lying on bed chatting with Danny on whatapps, then suddenly I felt a tapping sensation from inside my tummy. I thought it was my shorts that is too tight causing the discomfort so I took off the pant (:p). Then I felt it again! I think BB was happy because I just had a very hearty meal. The feeling was so amazing I just dunno how to describe it. I told Danny immediately and it might sound silly but next thing I know I found myself tearing, blame the pregnancy hormone again. Hehe

Bb, u must behaved guai guai in mummy's tummy o. Daddy and mummy can't wait to see u in July and we promise will shower you with loads of love.

P/S :
So the "kick" I felt wasn't the real baby movement. lol. Coz I didn't feel it anymore after that until I'm at week 21 which is few days ago. I finally felt the real quickening few days ago and this time I'm confirmed.

It's not a tapping sensation like how I described previously, instead it's like popcorn popping or hunger pang. And while I put my hand on my tummy I can actually feel it! It's so amazing and I just can't help to giggle everytime I feel it. It's just soooo amazing I have no other better word to describe it.

While we are expecting our little one #2 - first trimester

I'm always an optimistic person and I thought I will be the lucky one who doesn't need to go through morning sickness in my pregnancy. I WAS SO WRONG! in fact my morning sickness was quite bad I almost cried every few days; not sure it was due to the discomfort from morning sickness or the hormone. 

At week 6, I was still happily telling Lezann and the peeps I am not feeling any discomfort and everyone thought I am so lucky. Then my morning sickness kicks in at week 8 and it totally change my world. I couldn't enjoy any food and I was so fatigue all the time all I wanna do is lay on bed for the whole day. The usual 10-15 minutes walking distance to MRT station is killing me everyday and it's very silly but yes I cried few times while I'm walking home from MRT station. Arghh, blame the hormone again.

I feel so nausea all day, not just morning, I had no appetite to eat yet feeling hungry every few hours. The nausea gets worse whenever I'm hungry, so I had to force myself to eat then put up with the softer version of queasiness throughout the day. I didn't throw up although I'm feeling nausea until I reach week 10, then  I ran to toilet several times a day to puke. However, puking is not too bad as I felt much better after doing so. Just tat sometimes I have to be quick in spotting a toilet whenever I need it.

Then once I entered into second trimester at week 13, the morning sickness just magically gone overnight. One day before I was still hugging the toilet bowl to cry, the next day I woke up and feeling all energetic and wanna eat all the food I can. How funny yet big relief to me, of coz to Danny too. :D

Now I look back, it was just a month that I suffered the morning sickness but it seems like years for me when I was going through it. I'm literally counting day by day and thought I will never get back my normal diet anymore. How silly.

At this moment I'm in my second trimester, I still feeling nausea sometimes, but not too frequent, I can finally enjoy my food; although still not as enjoyable as before pregnancy. I'm still feeling hungry every 2-3 hours. I do have some new symptoms such as rapid heart rate, minor leg cramp and itchy skin. Aside from these I'm feeling energetic, happy, and all positive. ^___^ 

I know I will suffer again when third trimester come, so I better enjoy myself to the max during this period. Continue my queen treatment at home by Danny. :p

While we are expecting our little one #1 - how we found out

I'm writing this post at my week 9 pregnancy; but I'm probably publishing it in the second trimester :D

It's Chinese pantang to keep it as a secret until second trimester but I just couldn't resist but have told a lot of my friends already as early as week 6. lol.. Anyway, at least I'm not announcing it on FB. :p

So how did we find out? It was during my trip to HK. Since I've been TTC (trying to conceive) for some times, I actually bring along the pregnancy test kit with me because my period will be due during the trip. :p

The day before I tested it, Danny and I went to the famous Wong Dai Sin temple and I "kao chim" and asked when will I have a baby, the chim said it will come in autumn. Then the next day I tested with pregnancy test kit and it return positive. Amazing or not? It's really autumn in lunar calendar lo..

The reason I so gan jeong to test it was because we actually planning to attend the wine & dine festival in HK, and I wanted to play safe not to drink if I were pregnant. So in the end I didn't drink lo, hehe, and thats how Doreen find it suspicious and keep asking if I'm "yao jor". lol

I tested it on tat day my period due, the double lines on the pregnancy test kit was very light. When I showed it to Danny, he just refuse to believe I'm pregnant and didn't show much response. Grrrhh!!! I'm so disappointed, I've been always fantasy on how big reaction can Danny be when he knows tat he is becoming a daddy soon.

Then we return from HK and I tested again with home pregnancy test kit, the double has become very obvious, and we know it's confirmed. Then Danny start becoming all bossy. No cold drinks, no fast food, no instant noodle, no late night sleep and etc. Good side of it, also no house chore… Danny is doing all of it! He do all the house chore, prepare food for me (either tapao or cook by himself), make milk for me whenever I'm hungry and putting up with my temper whenever my hormone acting up. I know I'm such a lucky gal and I'm blessed with a supportive husband.

Happy go lucky

So things got settled by itself. Everything back to normal, business as usual.

So I was worried for months for nothing. In fact, a friend of mine told me I doesn't seems like worrying much, so she said this is happy go lucky literally. LOL

Well, so my motto of life now is stay happy so I can go lucky all the time! I still need that a lot.

Happy birthday to myself

(not in the mood of blogging in English)

今天是我的３１岁生日。。 酸酸的，忧忧的。。最近还蛮＂诸事不顺＂。。事业遇到了一个大危机，想要的不断尝试却不断失望，身边也失去了一些东西，就连Goppy也将离我而去，情绪低落。。

昨天切了个蛋糕，已经有好多年都没有切生日蛋糕了。。许了个愿，希望愿望成真。。

Update :

This was my facebook status, I really mean it. Things may be tough now, but it will be fine, it's just the matter of time. Tough time don't last, tough people do. Ush!

It's been one of those days recently, but all the birthday wishes I receive just reminds me of how lucky I am to be surrounded by lovely friends and family all the time. I am counting my blessing and I believe everything will be fine soon. Thank you so much for the birthday wishes and it means a lot to me. — feeling blessed.

Just miss home

1 year in Korea + 1 year in Singapore = 2 years away from KL.

I miss my home sweet home in Puchong, I miss welcomed home by Goppy with his mad-wagging tail, I miss cooking at home with Danny, I miss swimming in the pool in my condo, I miss my family and friends...

Change is the only constant. Danny and I weren't plan for all these yet there are so many changes for the past 2 years. Despite missing home, I consider these changes are good. I had my most memorable working assignment in Korea, not just earning the working exposure but a very precious friendship with the colleagues back then, buddies now. Then unexpectedly Danny got a job offer in Singapore and eventually I join him after my working assignment in Korea which ended our LDR. Then we tied the knot.

Life in Singapore is alright. It can get boring at times but we met a lot of interesting people here. A 40++ years old guy who quit his lawyer job and become a full time rock song composer; a young vocalist lady who sing to save up for her backpack trip in Europe then got funded after she wrote 12 songs to a kid program; a Czech working and holiday'ing in Singapore; an Italian couple working as freelance Journalist and traveling at the same time..... These people are fun, they might not having luxury lifestyle but they are definitely happy. I love talking to them, I get to know many interesting things happen in every corner in the world, and make me realize life isn't all about career and money. Sometimes I wish I can be as free as them and travel around the world with my beloved just like them; at the same time I miss home and wish to settled down as soon as possible, ironic huh? yeah I know. Well, since change is the only constant and nobody can predict the future, just be happy and enjoy the moment ;) 

Probably the last post of wedding prep

I was on leave for a week. It was a super busy week as expected. We traveled KL-Seremban almost everyday throughout the whole week. @.@

We went to Avillion for the food testing and finalize the dinner thingy. Collected the wedding favor which is a shot glass designed by ourselves :D. Met relatives and friends to give them the invitation cards. Went to church to settle the booklet. Collected photo album which also printed wrongly and gotta send back to the bridal studio for rectifying. Prepare the dowry. Do planning for the actual day rundown. Meet up with actual day photographer for discussion.......

Finally it's the finale of our wedding preparation, can't wait for the party in 2 weeks time. ^_^y
