I'm 36th weeks pregnant...

Besides the wedding anniversary, 6th of March is a very special date to Bruce and me, this is the day that we first met and knew each other 5 years ago.

So, I would like to express my heartfelt feeling to my hubby... on this special day...

Time really flies... my 10 months of pregnancy will soon end with the arrival of our little prince, Luvik Chai. It have been a wonderful and yet emotional roller coaster 9 months to us...

Being the first time mummy and daddy,We both learn a lot during these few months about the pregnancy and childbirth and I must admit that it's not easy. If without my hubby, Bruce, I dont think I would go through all the different stages and changes of the pregnancy.

During my 1st trimester, I was having morning sickness everyday, non-stop of vomiting and i felt so weak, so sleepy and exhausted...
"He" felt so helpless at first, so he tried to search for the causes and the treatment. He made sure our fridge have fresh lemons everyday, he will rush to cut the fresh lemon slices for me to smell whenever i felt like puking... He will do the cleaning each time i puked, i knew it's gross but he said he can do it... He hugged me tightly when I kept crying that caused by the morning sickness ... He done all the house chores so i can have enough rest... He prepared the meals and always satisfied my cravings. :)

During my 2nd trimester, we got to know the gender of our baby.
"He" is so happy that we are having a baby boy... we started to shop for the baby, he never failed to share his opinions on which and what to buy... He accompanied me for swimming every weekends...He made sure i took my fish oil and supplements... and he talked and sang nursery rhymes to the baby every night. :)

During my last trimester, I became so puffy and so slow in my movement, then my figure start getting out of shape, i'm so conscious about it...
"He" comforted me and gave me all the assurance and encouragement that i need... He helped me to wear my socks before i sleep... He woke up to stretch my calf muscles when i got leg cramps in the middle of the night( because I shouted out like mad!!)... He helped me to apply lotions on my stretch marks... He always hold my hand and walk slowly by my side, give me all the supports that i need. :)

Thank you so much for all the love and care that you have given me, though sometimes i will throw tantrums like a little girl, but you always give in and pampering me. I know we are ready for the arriving of our baby, and we will both work together to give our baby the best. :)

"You are the best hubby in the world to me. "

孕妇也需要运动！

在我还没怀孕时，就非常希望可以自然生产。 因为妈妈在自然产后几个小时就能走动，身体也能比较快瘦下来，不会有水肿的问题。还有，在自然产的过程中，因为宝宝自己也一直出力，所以对于宝宝本身的心肺功能也比较好。虽然生产会很痛很痛，但是伟大的妈妈一定会咬紧牙跟忍下去！

所以，从怀孕第 15 周开始，我就开始以运动来锻炼身体以准备“应付”马拉松式的自然生产过程。

三项很适合孕妇的运动：



瑜伽 Pre natal Yoga

我爱上了孕妇瑜伽，每个星期都会做2-3次，每次30分钟。 孕妇瑜伽的动作很简单，还能减轻腰酸背痛，美化身体曲线。

游泳 Swimming

周末，Bruce都会陪我去游泳， 游泳（蛙式）对孕妇是个很好的运动，low-impact, 利尿来减少怀孕水肿的问题，还能放松心情呢！

散步 Walking

散步乃是锻炼心脏血管的最佳方法。我和Bruce常常都会饭后到楼下散步30分钟。一面散步，一面聊天也是一种促进感情的方式。

My baby's first blanket is done!

4 weeks of hard work, finally my baby's first blanket is completed. I'm at 16 weeks of pregnancy, tummy is getting bigger and bigger, sometimes i can feel the little one is kicking away inside me. After the ultrasound, we knew we're going to have a baby BOY, "Bruce Junior"! The gynae told us the baby boy is very active and healthy.

I have started on my 2nd knitting project, this time shall be a vest, more colors and patterns can be mix and match.

P/s: Thanks Van Jean for the Paddington Bear all the way brought back from London. :) I'm sure baby boy will love it.

可怕的害喜！Horrible Morning Sickness!

天啊！害喜啊害喜！太可怕了！

怀孕初期，我初尝到了害喜的“厉害”！

只有两个字可以形容它，那就是 “ 辛苦 ” 啊！

从怀孕5周开始，每天早上起身后，我就马上觉得胸口恶心，超级想吐！吃完早餐后不到十分钟，又马上把早餐都吐出来了。这一整天下来，都挣扎在恶心及呕吐中，好“ 辛苦 ” 啊！

由于我属于 “不吐不快” 型的孕妇，我的食量变得少得惊人。 每餐只吃得下5口饭，然后就饱了，不然又开始吐了！还好医生给了每天都得吃的维生素及叶酸，这样宝宝才不会缺少营养。然后，我对食物的口味可是180度的转变，原本我的口味还算清淡， 现在却喜欢吃口味较重的食物。那些蒸鱼，蒸肉最好都离我远远的，我一闻到的话，又会开始吐！好“ 辛苦 ” 啊！

然后，我的嗅觉变得很敏感，一点点难闻的气味，香精都不能忍受。我开始时还以为我心里作祟，但是我发现连洗澡的洗发精，沐浴乳及洁面霜都会令我作呕。于是，我便把全部沐浴用品都换成无香精的，洗澡时就不会这么难过了！Bruce 说，我好像变成了一只嗅觉灵敏的狗... 天啊，好“ 辛苦 ” 啊！

还有，我每天都觉得好累，眼皮有千金重，好像一直想睡个不停。再加上饮食不足，孕吐，整个人好虚哦。我不得不把一些音乐课延期，因为我很需要时间休息。好“ 辛苦 ” 啊！

“世上只有爸妈好”！这一点都没错！每当我感到很难受时，我都回想起我在hometown的父母。他们不能常常陪伴及照顾我，所以我只可以自己慢慢的度过这“ 辛苦 ”的怀孕初期。想着，想着，我的眼泪又不由自主地掉下来了。。。

不过，我有一位很体贴的丈夫，他对我简直是无微不至，真得非常感谢他！还有，我的家婆及家翁也对我给予关怀和鼓励。

所以，宝宝要加油哦！妈妈也要加油！！真希望这“ 辛苦 ”的日子能赶快过去！！！

意外的惊喜！I'm pregnant, world!

我要宣布的是，我怀孕了！真的怀孕了！

在验孕棒显示阳性反应时，我马上傻眼， 原本还以为是验孕棒出了问题。所以，第二天一早，Bruce马上带我到妇产科去做验血检查。三天后，验血报告证实了我已经怀有身孕。

天啊，这怀孕计划比原先早了几个月，常听人家说受孕是间不容易的事，但还好我们很幸运，在开始没有防备后，就 “有了”！

在还没怀孕前，我已经买了《七田 真 》胎教的一系列书籍，现在终于派上用场了！其实，我心里是充满了期待，及兴奋的。我常对 Bruce 说，生儿育女是个伟大的计划，所以我们一定要好好地去教育及栽培我们的子女。

不用多说，Bruce当然很开心，因为我们都很喜欢小孩儿!
