It won't be long from now on,I hope!
This not-so-little Lion3ss is now 37 weeks along, with a huge (and I really do mean humongous!) belly and slightly swollen feet. Not as bad as the first pregnancy, but this time around I am generally bigger looking (I started bigger anyways, haha) and my heels are killing me even from the 3rd month. Put on a good 11 kgs so far, not even half of what Lil Cub made me pile up, hehe, but I feel heavier than 10 sacks of potatoes and bigger than Khir Toyo's mansion!
Went for our now weekly check-ups last week, and found out that Adik has decided not to move into position yet. What worries me more is the fact he decided to turn into an oblique position, where his head is under my right rib. By this time with the brother, he was even ready in the canal (although he decided to come out MUUUUUUCH later!). I know that every baby and every pregnancy is different, but it doesn't make it feel any less worrying. Please join me in praying that Adik will turn in time.
Oh, we have a few names lined up for him actually, but the brother is really focused on one. We like the name too, but Buster and I can't really agree on the spelling. Sometimes I feel like smaking him on the head and say, "Hey, I am the one carrying him for nine months so PLEASE give me some leeway here!" By the way honey, if you are reading this, I am adamant on the 2nd choice for our next child (if it happens to be another boy, and IF we ever decided to have another one!).
My parents are not so keen on it though, cos it reminds them of something else. But as far we are concerned, as long as the meaning is good, and we love it, they just need to learn to live with it...hehehe.
Work is NOT slowing down, but I have completed my handover notes to be passed to the colleague while I am gone. I have planned to be off work like 1-2 weeks before the EDD, but I am still in the office *rolls eyes*. Feel slightly guilty of leaving, especially when my fave boss won't be there once I come back from my maternity leave. It is not very often that you have a great boss, someone you get along so so well with. I guess it is only fair as it will be a new area for her, but I wished she would stay longer.
Oh, on another note - my house looks like it has been hit by a tornado (again!). Baby clothes are everywhere in between my exam notes (which is gonna be esok and I am supposed to be studying right now), and it just hit me that I have not completed packing for the hospital yet. *So maybe it is a good thing that Adik is not early!* Hope to call those hourly maids once I am on leave to help out with the 'organising'. The cot and crib need dusting, Lil Cub's toys need to be sorted out and kept, and don't get me started on the kitchen cabinets. There are so many things that need to be thrown out.
A little bit of updates before I am off to go study again:
T and Widdy is blessed with a beautiful baby girl on 1st July 2009, giving Mama and Aboh their 3rd grandchild. She did it without any pain relievers (oh how I salute her!)
EllyB is expecting her second, EDD January.
Emm and family have moved Down Under, leaving EllyB and I one less friend, and we don't have that many to start off with. I miss her terribly.
Cuz Tush is also expecting, after 3 years of marriage. Am so so happy for her.
The office has banned Blogger, hence the very long in -between updates. Hopefully once I am on leave will be able to update this more often so that you 3 readers (or is it 2 now) have something to talk about the next time I see you guys. Hahaha.
