Oh Baby Baby

How did the three day weekend go by so quickly? *frown* Just been back to work for 1 day, and I'm already ready for another weekend.

Anyway, random thought. I usually shed so much hair when I shower that I have to clean the drain out either every day or at most every other day. But recently, I haven't been losing much hair. But myth has it that a few months after giving birth, new mothers will lose hair like caaaarazy. Something bout hormonal changes and stuff. So basically right now, all those hairs are adding up all to be lost at once. I don't know how I feel about that. Kind of a scary thought.

Another random thought. The "pregnant glow" that people talk about. It's such BS. What it REALLY is is your face becoming more oily also due to hormonal changes and thus causing "the glow" and more zits. =P

Can you tell I'm learning a lot? hah

Anyway, here is a pic @ 6 months. I don't really know how the bump came to be. Seems like it came overnight. It's been fun so far. Knowing that there is something living/growing/breathing inside of you really does something to your outlook on life.


Recently, I've been thinking a lot about my favorite pair of jeans. I just don't know when I'll be able to wear them again. And my running a marathon by 30? I think I might just have to postpone it another 5 years. I can barely get up 2 flights of stairs w/out running out of breath, let alone run 26 miles. lol

Oh... and tomorrow... June 1st... I'm counting on finding out whether we're having a Baby B or a Baby G!

24 weeks~~~

There are good days, and there are bad days. Today was not so hot. Baby-wise all is well. I'm talking more along the lines of mental wellness.

Anyways, sometimes the fact that there is somebody growing inside of me freaks me out just a little bit, but then again, a bajillion other women go through the same thing, so it can't be that weird.

You know, being 6 months pregnant, I've gained a very decent 10-12 pounds. I haven't been having those major food cravings that people expect me to have. But I think it's just because I'm all riced and noodled out for a while. When I see this food, or even think about my next meal, this feeling that makes me a bit ill wells up inside. What I really want is PASTA, TACOS, CAESAR SALADS, CHEESEBURGERS, MUSHROOM BURGERS, a hell, just give me a big fat juicy STEAK!

I do wish my girlfriends were here with me. I need a dose of laughter and just to giggle over nothing.

Wonder when I will get a chance to visit home.

Week 23~~

I knew I would start to neglect the blog after a while. Everything has been going well. Mainly been keeping busy with work, I suppose. I've been gaining weight... like a lot more weight lately. I know scale obsession is absolutely inappropriate during pregnancy, but I can't help myself. Currently at 56.7kg now. haha actually it's still around the weight I was during my undergrad =P.

I can't believe it's almost June. Looking forward to our 2 yr anniversary.

And then July... because of my neglect... I turned a planned week-long visit from Eric into a very very short 1.5-2 day visit. I'm just lucky he's coming at all.

I'm enjoying every bit of this pregnancy so far, but part of me just wants to fast forward a couple months ahead. Although I have no idea what "being a Mommy" entails, I simply can't wait to become one!
