Half Way through

Alhamdulillah, last week I've hit the halfway mark in my pregnancy i.e 20th weeks.Secara tiba-tiba jugak I rasa macam perut I ni memboyot dengan jayanya. Kalau minggu sebelum2 ni rilek je pakai baby-t kat rumah, tapi masuk 20th weeks ni, bila pakai baby-t dah terserlah pusat bujir ku itu sampai SN pun komplen "bakpo baju mommy pendek sangat?" hahahaha. Daddy dia pulak tak habis2 duk cakap "eeee, mommy dah gemuk"...sabar je lah dengan dua beranak ni huhuhhu.

 

Alhamdulillah jugak, dah semakin bertenaga dan selera makan pun semakin baik. Tak macam awal2 dulu, rasa tak lalu makan je. Sekarang ni, Insya Allah sumbat lah apa pun dalam mulut...gerenti habis hehe. Start minggu lepas jugak, I consumed the Fish oil supplement (DHA & EPA); fish oils yang tidak berasaskan daripada hati ikan mengandungi banyak DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), iaitu asid lemak omega-3 yang penting untuk perkembangan mata dan otak bayi *Insya Allah, harap2 SN Jr akan jadi anak yang bijak macam Abg SN jugak nanti*.

 

Cuma yang kurang best sikit bila masuk 20th weeks ni ialah I dah start feeling the leg cramp especially at night and in the early morning. According to babycenter, it's possible that my leg muscles get tired from carrying around all of the extra weight. Or they may be responding to the pressure that my expanding uterus puts on the blood vessels that return blood from my  legs to my heart and on the nerves that lead from my trunk to the legs.  What I can do is just shout for help to darling hubby, tapi hubby pulak cakap "duk diam2 je, jap lagi OK" Aiyoyoyoyo .  Actually to ease the cramp, I should flex the foot (point it upward) and then gently stroke the leg to help it relax.

Lagi satu yang I noticed, entering this 20th weeks of my pregnancy; getting out of bed is harder than ever!. Bukan tu je, kalau I dah duduk berlunjur kat atas kerusi laptop, nak bangun pun terpaksa mintak tolong hubby or SN untuk tarik tangan I. Same goes to kalau I duduk untuk pakai kasut, terpaksa suruh hubby tarik tangan baru boleh bangun. Nampak sangat mak buyong muatan berat di perut kui3x. 

 +- lihat perut ku.....boyot kan?   ekekeke -+

To celebrate the 20th weeks, babycenter suggested that I should treat myself to something nice. I've made it to the halfway mark in your pregnancy, so I should celebrate it with a little indulgence. Here are some ideas from babycenter :-

• For your comfort, try scented candles, a new nightgown or pajamas, or a prenatal massage. --> payah lah nak berlilin2 bagai..karang Abg SN tiup sebab dia ingat 'hepi besday'...eheh

• For a keepsake, splurge on professional pictures of your pregnant self --> erm nak kena pujuk hubby pergi outdoor shooting la ni. sementara tu; snap guna ipong je dulu...then edit guna Instagram; OK lah tu kan? ngeeee

+- apakahhhh ini? hohoho..@20th weeks, I couldn't see my feet anymore from top view -+

• To feel like a hot momma, buy yourself a piece of clothing that makes you feel really sexy or get a free makeover at a department store. --> aaaa, idea ni best sangat. So, I pun mengikut saranan diorang dan get myself a new pair of sandal dan jugak 2 pieces of dress from PopLook. *terpaksa beli dress nun jauh di Malaysia jugak sebab dress yang ada kat sini agak singkat untuk I yang 'gergasi' ni*

+- auwww gedik sangat nak tunjuk sandal baru titewww, bunga2 gitu...very ladylike -+

Tomorrow I will be going to the hospital for next check-up. Tak sabar nak tengok baby SN Jr berguling2 kat dalam perut. Nasib baik kat Jepun ni, every time check up memang Dr akan buat ultrasound scan dan akan bagi printed image tu kat preggy moms; be it kat hospital kerajaan mahupun klinik swasta.... I like ♥.

Pssssttt : Abg SN pulak semakin mengada-ngada lately, nak main kat bilik toys pun nak dengan mommy, nak gi toilet pun mommy kena tunggu depan pintu, nak makan pun mommy kena suap...haisyyyy... agaknya nak ambil peluang bermanja dengan mommy puas2 sebelum adik baby lahir.
