First Baby Pics



Always wanted to post our BB pics on the blog .. wasnt able to find time to do so until now.. These are taken when we went for the detailed organ scans. BB is healthy and growing perfectly well. The gynae is still a little worried with my water retention and weight gained. Am watching my diet now.. trying not to crave on those delicious, sweet savoury snacks like muffins, cakes, nonya kuehs .. loved anything that's fragrant / strawberry flavoured. ..The taste kinda lingers ...

On my exercise regime, er hm which is zilch at this moment. Am such a procrastinator. Was just contemplating between sitting in front of my Pc and writing this blog versus doing those pelvic exercises.. guess which bought me over? I've read about how pelvic exercises could reduce the chances of posterior births ie some babies go down into the pelvis with the back of their heads towards their mothers' spines. This is called a posterior position and it can lead to several things happening: • your waters are more likely to break at the beginning of labour • you have a lot of backache during and in between contractions • labour is slower etc. Some bloggers recommend pelvic rock on all 4s from 35 weeks onwards to get the baby in position.

oh Well, cant imagine what life would be like when she finally arrives. =) many tells me we wont be able to find time as a couple until bb goes to school. I've just planned my maternity leave and updated the bosses . With the extension of maternity from 3 to 4 months, something which Chris is so envious of, I wonder what I'm gonna do in those weeks other than resting. But hey am not complaining =). For once I am starting to feel the benefits of being a citizen.
