Life in Fast Forward

now that i'm free from final exams and the restrictions of being a masters student, i am totally focusing 110% of my time to welcome a baby in our life. memang fail lah niat aku nak jadi blogger m2b kan dah terlepas 2-trimesters already and im nearing week 30 only to double-slap myself in the face and realize...

we're going to have a new person in our life soon!!!

oh my gosh, time has really flown by, what with all the hecticness of nite-classes, never-ending assignments and short breaks in between to go out or go back to kl, at the end of it, my belly is already bulging out (no i can't see my toes anymore, hehe) and we haven't even bought 5% of baby stuff yet! hadoiii. i feel so less organized compared to my wedding prep! around 2 1/2 months to go and yet i'm so unprepared. heeee. but, excited nonetheless :)

so now, it's the time to rewind my life, remind myself how i found out about our miracle, how he's been growing, make a checklist, jot down the budget and shop til i (or hubby) drops. FUN!! 

being a preggers student was not that bad, but there were times that i had to adjust myself to make myself more comfortable, for instance:-

1) got back pains coz wrong posture and due to hours (and hours) of time dedicated to finishing those never ending assignments

2) couldn't study in my favorite position anymore (laying on my stomach) becoz of the obvious ;p

3) pulling an all-nighters to study and finish off work was really unhealthy for baby and me, but i still did it ;(

4) can't drink as much coffee as i'd like to, eventho most preggy women stay away from coffee all together, i read somewhere its just that we can't have more than 3 cups a day, so i did sneak some coffee in (through neslo and instant nescafe sticks). just had to have the boost to keep me up

5) when baby-kicks were getting stronger, i couldn't seem to sit still in class as well. heheh. oh especially when i was sitting 3 hours for exams, makin active dia time tu, sesak nafas and had to keep it slow (despite time limit)


but all in all, it has been smooth-sailing, i dont experience the nauseating/vomiting like other ppl, just the tiredness due to my lower blood pressure so im doing good :) well will post more frequently now. ending this first wif latest pictures of me and tummy
