....has been good.
i've been wanting to write bout my pregnancy ever since we found out. but i've been waiting to announce it after 12 weeks. and now i can't even remember what i wanted to write about haha let's see if i can remember
i didn't get the morning sickness which was why we found out so late. guess i'm not as attuned to my body as i thought. the lethargy has gone as i entered into a week or 2 of my 2nd trimester.
i read on the app that i should be able to feel baby move around 18-22 weeks. at 18 weeks i was anxious to feel baby but i guess i still couldn't. i felt him move around like a snake in my body at around 20-21 weeks. it was more prominent every time i blew dry my hair. it was as if he was telling me that he didn't like the loud noise very much.
i think i felt kicks and punches the most when we were preparing to go back to kl for a holiday. so that must be around 21 weeks. we went back to kl to enjoy some holiday before i'm grounded for i don't know when.
in the beginning, he only kicked and punched me every time i eat. i guess he's showing his boy personality. hopefully he'll be an awesome eater in the future. then sometimes, he slowly progressed to moving when he hears my voice; when i'm singing or praying, he'll kick. now a days, he moves whenever he knows that i'm awake (i wonder how does he know when. even when i'm half asleep, he knows), when he hears mine and daddy's voice, and also when i'm eating.
my fingers have swollen a tad bit which means i can't wear my engagement ring anymore. my wedding ring seems to get tighter and tighter as the days passes. the first time i saw my legs swell was after landing in kl, when we were home and i was getting ready to change for dinner. the husband helped me take off my compression socks and bam! feet was super swollen i couldn't even recognize it. then slowly, every time i sat too long, it gets swollen. but as long as i put my feet up when i sleep, it goes back to normal the next day.
being back in kl this time made me have heat rash. usually i'm alright. but i guess the baby has changed my body, so i'm left with heat rash here and there. hopefully it goes off asap :(
my sweet tooth has gone. this baby doesn't like anything sweet. every time i look at chocs and sweets i feel yucks. sometimes i feel like eating it and when i eat it, i have this really bad after taste. instead, i love things that are sour or spicy. a lot of people have been trying to tell me to eat a variety of food so that the baby will be open to trying new food in the future. but i can't seem to do that. i have been trying though. this week i'll try to eat pasta again. haven't been eating pasta ever since i've gotten pregnant. i used to be able to eat pasta every day but now i find it revolting.
i've been trying to be diligent in taking my bump photos weekly but have been missing a few weeks here and there. my plans was thwarted especially when we went back to kl for hols. haha hopefully i am able to continue it back now
anyway i can't think of anything else to update. if i remember anything, i'll update again
