我有了!



Mar 1 - Test Kit
I noticed I was starting to feel fatigue & tired during jogs & my cardiomix/kickboxing classes. Something felt wrong when I also felt my boobs were exploding and.... I missed my Feb period. So while collecting my 2XU Compression run 2014 package @ Changi City Point, Dearie & I purchased a pregnancy test kit :P I didn't dare to take it so I asked him to take one and paid for it.

We were tired beyond words traveling from Expo > Tampines > Woodlands via 168. The test came out positive - quite expected since we already had intention to make a Horse Baby. But I still have a 10km & 5km run to do within the month. How?

Mar 4 - First GP visit
The morning sickness was awful and I just had to go to the doctor to be prescribed something. I don't know how to deal with the stringing headaches.

I saw the tiny fella at 6 weeks with a heartbeat! My heart was touched when I looked on the screen with the beating heart! I hadn't expected to feel that way!

At present, the size was only a tiny pea! But it had a beating heart!!!! My expected due date is Oct 26 - it's going to be a Scorpio baby! MELTS. I think my last menses period was the time of conceiving - I think. Otherwise, why would the GP tell me that the fetus was 6 weeks?

It was a strong fella considering it just survived a 10km walk/jog. I read online that the rate of miscarriage during the first 3 months was high because the embryo has yet to settle? So I don't know... it felt strange to be actually announced & confirmed by a GP of my pregnancy even though the test kit showed positive.

I was just prescribed with folic acid and the Dr just tell me to get lots of rest and refrain from eating certain foods. Oh boy! 要戒口!

The first person (other than my husband) whom I told was my mom since I still live at home and eat the food prepared by her. But it seemed to me that she wasn't really too happy to know because she is scared that I will ask her to help me take care and she quickly tried to get herself out by saying that since my MIL already had experience taking care of 2 grandchildren, just throw it to her.

???? I had no intention to bother both sides to be honest. I know my mother would be more concern with her 2 precious daughter and would rather I bother MIL. But precisely MIL mentioned before that she was tired taking care of the 2 grandchildren, so all the more I don't want to mafan her. I will quit my job if I have to - no need to mafan both sides at all.

6个星期的胎儿真的好小好小。
看着荧幕上的心跳让我莫名感动。这是我和老公的结晶.
真的没有想到会这么快‘成功’,原以为还得是多几次。
真的很感谢一切的一切 :)

Mar 6 - MC 2 days
I really needed the time to rest at home and catch up on sleep. I was glad to catch up on drama as well and reading up on pregnancy. Luckily there wasn't a lot to do when I went back to work.

But the coincident thing was, another of my colleague who recently gotten married was also pregnant! But she is 4 weeks ahead of me so our maternity period will clash - crippling the current design team :( I just hope they wouldn't think pregnant employees are a burden.

Mar 8 - Venus Run
Another run that I participated was this. I was still anticipating to be able to run with my sisters but my pregnancy came unannounced. Ever since Dearie knew about it, he had been really really tender loving to me :) He actually borrowed the car from his bro and drove my sisters & I to Marina Barrage where the run was happening. They said they got instructions from Mama to take care of me and be my 左右护法 for the day. LOL! Cute la cute!

Honestly, I really did feel like dying because of the evening sun but we eventually survive walking 5km in a little more than an hour.
Gotten Dearie to take a pic of us!

Some more photos of us that I found online :P Yes, I know I'm not the most glamourous looking person WHILE RUNNING but it was fun(ny) to be captured together with my sisters! LOL!

I am just glad Dearie was willing to drive us there, waited for us, drove us back again! I was so damn tired but I felt really happy & warm & basically blessed to have Dearie & my family with me.

Mar 9 - Daniel & Jasmine Wedding
Dearie had to get up at 2am to prepare being 'brother' as driver for Daniel's wedding while I rested till late morning and prepared myself and got on a cab for their wedding lunch. I wasn't in a rush but I didn't want to endure the really long journey from Woodlands > Orchard due to my frequent headaches.

Congrats to the both of them cos we all know they'd been together for a long time and loved each other so damn much!
Their photographer posted a 'sneak pic' on  the FB page which I thought was really beautiful!

Apr 1 - Tests @ 10 weeks
Just the blood tests & urine test plus consultation & medication I had cost $200+. I am quite horrified by the amount but I suppose they're all necessary but still.... 真的很贵.

Dearie has been extremely attentive & cautious of what I see and how I feel. He's more kan chiong that me and believes in 胎教. But the fetus is so small at the moment! Haha! After seeing the GP Dr, we went to Mt Alvernia on a maternity tour to check out the wards & their admission package.

Dearie wants to stayover with me after my delivery so we have to choose single room. Double room does not allow that. So single room admission is almost 3K for natural delivery, almost 4.5K for c-sect. This is just admission, we haven't include the gynae consultation & medication. We read in forums that each visit may cost 200+. Imagine visiting the gynae once a month or more frequently? Maybe add up to $1000+?

还没有开始养孩子,只是养生一个孩子就要5千多块! 
Haven't even included baby / mummy stuff?? OMG~

While hanging out at the nice cafeteria that serve not bad food, Dearie saw his friend there with his wife. They delivered their no.2 at the hospital and they're gonna be delivering no.3 there as well by the same gynae. Seems like Mt Alvernia is really a nice place to deliver. 

I just need to find a suitable gynae there but it's so far away from both Jurong & Woodlands :( Hmm....

老爸终于知道我怀孕了,因为我真的已经许久没有跑步了。
家人没有告诉他,因为怕他到处去和亲戚说。
总觉得我父母好像不是特别高兴自己可以当外公外婆。
