Tiredness

as the date is coming closer, I'm getting more and more excited as well as tired. everyday I just feel like jumping into the bed and sleep the moment I reach home. darling hubby definitely forbids me going without dinner. :P he's been asking why have I become so grouchy. (I have not had mood swings so far and hopefully can maintain. *yeah*) actually I'm not grouchy, just that my energy level will starts to depreciate from 2pm onwards; so by the time by see him in the evening, I'm already half-dead.

I have been dreaming a lot about little Ariel as well. can't wait to see how she'll look like. actually how she will looks like is not that important. most importantly is that she'll be healthy, born without complications. this is what I have been praying to God about everyday.

anyway, I'll be taking 2 weeks leave before my edd, which means 6 more weeks in office!!! I did not realise that until my supervisor warned me (jokingly) to clear my toys and junks at my cubicle before I go. (I won't be back till next year, will be taking no-pay leave after the maternity leave. :D) if not she's going to throw them away when they renovate my office. guess I have to start to clear them soon.

waiting... waiting... waiting...

Scare...

little Ariel gave us a little scare since last night. her movements were very little, unlike any other days. even this morning, I can't really feel her movements. I decided to give See Tho's clinic a call if I still don't feel any obvious movements from her by noon. luckily she started her kicking and rolling when I was bathing. after that, she was moving every now and then. *phew* she must have been very tired after being so active the whole of yesterday. (she was doing her stunts almost non-stop for the whole of yesterday.)

anyway, her check up on Saturday was fine. I thought I did not gain much weight since the last visit. (I weighed myself at my office's gym the day before and it showed that I have only gained 0.2 kg.) I was quite worried after that. eventually, it is proven that the weighing machine at the gym is NOT accurate!! (made me worry unduly!!) I have gained 1 kg and my total weight gain till now is 7.5 kg. (2.5 kg to 4.5 kg to go.) little Ariel's weight is 1.754 kg at week 31 and Dr See Tho said she is slightly heavier than average, but still a good weight. he also said that the amniotic fluid is not a lot, thus the scan will not be clear. however he assured us that though the amniotic fluid is not as much as last time, it is still enough for little Ariel. wonder if drinking lots of water help :-/
