3rd Wedding Anniversary

Time really fly, it seem like we are just made our vows yesterday, all memories still fresh & clear in our mind but today is already our 3rd year wedding anniversary.

During this 3 years period, life is full of ups & downs, but we chose to forgive & forget, learn to accept our differences & work towards the common goal we had in life.

And very soon, it will no longer be just the 2 of us, we are expecting the arrival of our little one in no time, another motivation in life for just to work even harder than more.

Since today is our 3rd year wedding anniversary, I shall take this special day to disclose our little one name. We had decided a English name for this little one, I find this name is very meaningful for our firstborn, we shall name her Marilyn, taking the 3 first 3 alphabet of both daddy (Mark) & mummy (Lynn) name. 

Last but not least "HAPPY ANNIVERSARY MY DEAREST HUSBAND"

Third Trimester

Another milestone clocked, both Little Sunshine & I had officially stepped into our third trimester, Little Sunshine is 28weeks 0days as of today.

To look back now, pregnancy journey was really a tough one, feeling lethargy, loss of appetite & insomnia in the first trimester, to getting all my energy back, but haunt by backache, cramps, clumsiness, water retention, always hungry & insomnia still in second trimester, I seriously don’t know what more am I going to expect in third trimester. Dilemma, feeling worry, but yet looking forward at the same time, not much time before Little Sunshine “pop”, but I still have so much thing not done yet. I have not done any shopping till date so far, all the necessity like baby cot, stroller, bouncer, milk bottles, formula, diapers etc not bought yet, and I haven’t even start sourcing for my maid.

So much thing to do and so little time left, at this moment I also don’t know I should start from where now, feeling so lost.

The baby bump is getting super heavy lately and I looked like an enormous Snorlax walking around. Getting really bulky & clumsy nowadays, every small little movement seem to be a pain in the ass to me. My back feel like it gonna break into 2 pieces in no time and how I wish I can just lay still on my cosy bed and not move at all. The worst of all is my bloated elephant legs is killing me, feel like punching anyone right in their face if they accidentally step on my feet now. Guess that the pain of pregnancy after all.

Time to start counting down

Everyday, is a new Experience for Us

10.01.2017 was such an unique experience for Daddy Su. At time before we head for bed, I will grab daddy’s hand and place on my tummy for him to feel Little Sunshine movement as I had been telling him how strong is her kick and movement was nowadays. But as usual, Little Sunshine wasn’t very cooperative during that time, she will just give daddy a gentle touch despite how much I rubbed my tummy and wake her up from sleep, that my naughty princess.

Little Sunshine enjoy TV time the most, whenever we went for movie or watch TV at home, she will start to kicking me aggressively. Daddy saw me rubbing my tummy while watching TV that evening, he turns his head over and ask me to stop disturbing Little Sunshine sleep. I told him that Little Sunshine was dancing in my tummy and at this very moment, Little Sunshine give me a very strong kick, daddy can even see the movement on my tummy without touching it (I was wearing a tight top at home). He was really shock, so I quickly take this opportunity to disturb daddy from his TV time, I went over and sit closely to him, grab his palm to rest on my tummy. This is the very first time daddy feel such big movement from Little Sunshine and he was really amazed by it.

Almost coming to the end of my 2nd trimester now, next week onward, I’ll be stepping into my 3rd trimester, this journey didn’t come by easy at all. Currently I was haunt by insomnia, backache, cramps & bad water retention on my legs. All my movement start to become so clumsy, just a simple action of picking up stuff from the floor can left me breathless. I can’t walk as fast as before anymore, every steps I take now I can feel the pins & needles under my feet, even daddy have to slow down and suit my paces now.

Little Sunshine, please be healthy and strong, we are almost there. Date are getting closer as each day passes, Daddy & Mummy gonna see you real soon, we are so looking forward for your arrival. We love you so much.

Now then I know exactly the meaning of "loving someone so deeply even before we met".

That my elephant feet now. Overgrown all my shoes.

6 Months Milestone

23weeks, 0days Milestone

Today, my little Sunshine step into the 23weeks 0days milestone, currently she is in the size of grapefruit, super active in my tummy, wriggling very frequently nowadays, especially during the night time, giving me a big problem to get into sleep.

Not only that, lately I was being haunted real badly by water retention effect, bloated hands & feets making me really uncomfortable. It a good excuse now to buy more shoes without having my husband to nag at me I guess. But at the same time, left with not choice but to wear my wedding band on my neck as my fingers are swelling too.

Recently, I have been doing alot of impulsive shopping for little Sunshine till my friend advice me that I should stop buying, baby grow up far too fast than we expected, she will pass me her daughter newborn stuffs instead. That gonna save me whole lot of money, thanks for all the blessing.

(This are some of my purchase of Little Sunshine)

(These socks are a little too big, guess Little Sunshine can't wear anytime soon yet)

Alot of friends start sending us gifts to prepare us with the arrival of little Sunshine. Just yesterday husband's friend David & Daryl surprise us with the Philips Avent gift set, so nice of them. They even wanna come all the way to our house just to pass us the stuff, they seem to be more gan chiong than us, told them no rush, they can pass us some other day instead.

Shall end this random post with a baby bump photos once again. I miss out capturing the moment of the growing bump for the first trimester, time to catch up for the rest of the journey now.

(The bump is growing at an incredible rate now)

First Post of 2016

Hello Everyone,

2016 had been a really tough year for me, I'm glad that everything is coming to an end soon.

Many thing had happened, it pretty impossible for me to sum up the whole year happening in just one post. So I shall just make it short, just let me touch on those important events.

Firstly, just let me share some update on my 4-legged son, Lycan. He was really a big boy now, as mischievous as before. Throughout the whole years, I had went through many training programs with him, engage many different professional trainers to correct his bad behavior, but none of these method seem to work. So I finally give up, just let him be what he is, keeping my finger crossed, hoping that he will get better as time go by.

(My little monster was so jealous when daddy bought me a Snorlax and he doesn't have one)

(Love the way he sit, so graceful)

(My charming boy)

Lastly, and most important of all, both me & my husband is moving on to the very next phrase of our life, parenthood, let me introduce you to my little Sunshine (fetus name).

(Ultra-scan imagine was taken sometime back - 16 weeks)

As of today, my little Sunshine is 22 weeks 4 days old, I'm half way through my pregnancy journey now. I'm consider one of the few lucky one with no morning sickness for my first trimester, but still, this journey hasn't been an easy one.

Special thanks to my husband being very supportive by my side always, taking good care of me & my little Sunshine. Not forgetting my mum & sis showing me lot of support through this period of time, and of course my parent-in-laws for taking the effort brewing soups & bird nest for me. I'm very grateful to have all this wonderful people around me.

I'm hoping to have more time to share more about my pregnancy journey cause it have been an amazing one, maybe not today, but sometime soon, guess I should just end this post here. Can't wait for my little Sunshine to arrival real soon to walk side by side with us.

(The photo I used to announce my pregnancy officially in social media)

Shall end this post with a baby bump photo taken last week. Take care everyone!
