The new year

There are good news and not so good news to share..

Good news is i'm pregnant! About 8 weeks now... So edd probably in July/ august. Hopefully my new boss would allow me to take my maternity leave all at one shot. Anyway am gaining weight real fast on this one. But baby seems to hate the smell of steam fish, and beef cooked with butter. Still having morning sickness, but realized a good method around this is to eat before you feel like throwing up, which explains the weight gain. Am feeling super thirsty all the time and had to pee like a zillion times. One doctor to be friend said it's pretty normal as my uterus is expanding. So my body needs loads of water at this stage. But I would need to monitor my diet and not overeat in order not to get gestational diabetes.

The not so good news is.... Maid wants to return home to get married and I've got to retrain the new maid. Had some earlier issues with getting her across before Christmas as agent kept telling me that there are no flights out from serembang. So we had to wait till end next week before she arrives in Singapore and hopefully passes the singapore's foreign domestic helper's assessment. Keeping my fingers crossed on this one as she had failed the test once. Perhaps with the delayed entry, this would give her more time to practice and remember her training. Can't really do without a helper at this Stage. So we really hope she could start work with us soon.
