Can I take my leave now?
It has been quite some time since I have last written anything.
*No, Elisa - I dok beranok lagi!*
But work in the office has been crazy and I dread the day that I am going for my leave. The kind doctor has already given me a blank MC - for me to put the date whenever I feel too tired to work anymore. I'd prolly take up on her offer next week. She suspects Lil Cub would come out a week earlier than his due date, which is in a week's time!
Went for our last and final class of parentcraft last night. Since we started off with the 3rd class a month's back (the lady doesn't think I'd make it in time if I started with the first class last week!), last night class was on breathing techniques and antenatal exercises. I was the ONLY person who is past 36 weeks..so you can imagine me trying to do some of the exercises! *Hahaha..Buster made sure I wasn't 'pushing' during the breathing class - in case Lil Cub thinks it is actually time!!*
Got almost everything in the baby & mommy list (thanks aunties & uncles for the gifts!), except for a few items that Buster needs to get during his lunch. *HINT!HINT!*
Errr..any suggestions on the best brand of diapers anyone?
Oooh, I can't describe the anxiety and worry that goes through my head right now. I am so excited, but at the same time pinching myself to ensure that this is REAL. The realisation that my whole life would change after the next week or two, the idea that a small being will be dependent on you for his life and well being, the whole concept of having a kid. WOW!
I remembered praying in front of the Kaabah last year so that Allah bless us with a child only when He thinks we are ready to have one. Who are we to question His decision? I certainly wasn't at that point of time..but I can't imagine waiting any longer now.
Wish me luck, people. I will try to update during my leave. But in case I don't - I shall personally sms you when the time comes.
