I just can’t seem to control my emotions and cry easily. I feel so stressed out and have nightmare every night. Just talked to my mom on the phone and I couldn’t stop crying and it freaked her out. I get irritated by people on a daily basis over something minor. This is not good.

Yesterday I had a fight with hubby over something stupid and I yelled at him like crazy.

ps: I am carrying a boy. It was confirmed at my last checkup.

I’ve always wanted to get a tattoo but it’s one of those things that I wanna do but never come around to do it. Then the other day I just realized I had a perfect reason to get one. I am gonna get a little star tattoo after my baby’s born. To me star represents hope and life. One baby, one star hehe.

I’ve developed a new habit: rubbing my tummy in bed at night, and talk to my baby just for a few minutes. I wonder when I’ll feel his movement.

I think I need to drink water more often. I get thirsty easily when I walk on the street.

Not getting enough quality sleep because I always get up in the middle of the night, and I have these stupid nightmares.

105 days pregnant and nausea’s finally gone!!!

I didn’t drink enough milk these days coz I can’t drink milk on its own. Will blend milk and papaya together tomorrow (love Hawaiian papaya).

When I sleep on the side I notice something funny below the area of my abdominal. Sometimes there’s a little bump on the left and sometimes it’s on the right. I wonder if that’s where the baby is.

Today’s menu:

10:40am Boiled egg, French roll with turkey breast.

2:00pm 6 small dumplings, chicken soup.

5:00pm cheese bread, orange

7:30pm Japanese cold noodle, potato salad

Last night I had a couple drops of brown discharge and it worried me. It happened again this morning so I called my doctor and she asked me to see her. I called my sister and she came along coz my doctor’s office was very close to her office. It was my sis’ first live ultrasound experience. The baby was moving and everything seemed normal so I was relieved.  He even turned his face to us and my sis thought he looked like an alien.  My doctor said it should be ok but asked me to rest more at home. I’ve been going out a lot lately not having enough rest. I think I’ll be good and stay home the next few days. First experience being a worried mom. @@

PS: Baby is 8.4cm long.

I went to my first prenatal yoga class yesterday. Holy crap!! There were 20+ pregnant women in the room. They had to remove the wall between 2 rooms to make room for all of us. The yoga was quite relaxing and I felt pretty good after. It’s mostly about stretching your limbs, breathing and positions that help with blood circulation. I plan to do yoga twice a week.

We went to my parents’ place for dinner on Sunday and planned on telling them about the baby.  I got a print out of the ultrasound and showed it to my mom at the dinner table.  Here’s how it went:

Me: Mom check this out *handed mom the print out*.

Mom: *looked at it print out with a confused look on her face* What’s this? Your friend is having a baby?

Me: ….You don’t get it? I am pregnant!

Mom: You mean you are playing some computer game growing baby?

*Me, my hubby, my sis, and her hubby were all laughing LOL*

My hubby:  She’s 3 months pregnant!!

Me: yeah mom I am pregnant for real.

Mom: How come your tummy’s so flat then?  Are your playing with me?

My mom has been nagging me to have a baby for so long, now that it’s finally happening she’s in shock and disbelief.  So funny.

Whenever I have nausea I munch on these baby biscuits hehe. They are supposed to be for infants/toddlers but I like them. Look at the one on the right…It’s got milk, calcium and some vitamins. Perfect for babies.

These are super cute!!!

I had an Oscar test (One-Stop Clinic for Assessment of Risk) couple days ago, which is a prenatal screening program for Down’s syndrome. It’s usually done at week 12. The baby is now 6.6cm long and being very active when I looked at it through ultrasound. I had a strong feeling last year that I’d have a baby this year and it’s gonna be a boy, so I asked my doctor if he could tell the gender of the baby now that I entered week 13 (month 4, 12 weeks 4 days today). He said by looking at the angle of the sex organ there’s 70% chance my baby’s a boy, which means my instinct’s spot on. Conclusion: The baby’s healthy, I am healthy, the Oscar result was great and I am relieved.

After the Oscar test me and my hubby wanted to grab something to eat and I said I wanted to have veggi soup at the Mandarin Hotel. He said it’d take forever to dine at the hotel restaurant and we still had some errands to run later, so he suggested we went somewhere else. Ended up going to a place without veggi soup, and I didn’t like anything on the menu. Then came the teary eyes….stupid hormones again! I guess my hubby felt guilty and kept asking me if I wanted this or that on the menu. We ordered some food and offered to share some fried rice with couple of tourists who were eyeing it. I hope it made their Hong Kong trip that much more memorable.

Now that I am 3 months pregnant we could tell the whole world about my pregnancy. My mom still didn’t know yet muhahhaa. Will tell her later today.

Nausea hit me today because I didn’t eat much.  Stupid stupid nausea!!!  I had some boiled veggi tonight.  My hubby left town this afternoon and will be back in 2 days.  No one around to spoil me grrr…I get very emotional having all sorts of negative thoughts.  Nausea, hubby not around etc.  He sent me msn in the hotel room and asked me how I was doing.  Then I started crying.  So stupid.
