Year 2007

I had my wedding early this year on 9th January. Just 3 months ago, I never knew I will get married in my early twenties, thats mainly because, my companion wasn't at all stable with his income, and I thought to myself that I will never get married in a haste and without a fully planned future.

A fine day during November last year, I suddenly felt awful with a nauseous feeling together with bloatedness and tiredness. This went on for a few days and I wondered what is happening to me. I never even thought that these could be symptoms of being pregnant because my menses aren't due yet and they are usually late and irregular anyway. After a couple of days, I got suspicious and went off to Watsons to get myself a test kit. When the test showed a positive result, I even thought that the kit is faulty. Showed it to my boy later that night, and he was both amused and excited. Now what?!

We went off to my family doctor and the result is the same, the doctor recommended us to a Gynae at Bedok and so off we went but only to discover that we would need to book an appointment to see the Gynae. I quitted smoking immediately, and with the nauseousness attacking me all the time, I couldn't take it even when other people smoke near me. So finally, we seen the doctor a week later and proven that I was 6 weeks pregnant at that time.

I had a serious talk with my boy and we decided to get married, both he and I are against the idea of aborting the baby, thats the last idea on the list. We decided to keep it even though both of us just lost our jobs. Lucky is my boy is really supportive and he isn't the stereo-bad-guy-type, to make me abort the baby. We revealed to our parents, and we got married in 2 months time, with the wedding album and dinner done. Here is some of my favourite photos:






I am now 6 months pregnant, with the baby kicking and moving inside me all the time. I gained a hell 10 kgs since I discovered my pregnancy. My weight is still increasingly rapidly and I had tried my best to eat less and control my supper intake, but you know, sometimes I lost control. I gained 4 kgs in a month's time last month, and got myself chided by my Gynae and was told that I can only gain 1 kg this month. I tried to keep myself in control but couldn't keep the 1 kg range hahaha. So I look like a penguin and a fatso right now. My god, I feel so fat. My waist is now at 38 inches. You wouldn't want to see me right now, I think you will faint. My EDD (estimated delivery date) is around 18 to 24 July, so watch out for me! I don't mind people visiting me at East Shore Hospital, but don't faint when you see the horrendous me.

I avoided going out as I get tired easily and with this tummy, you just couldn't make yourself walk around that much. I discovered that I have been losing contact with my friends too. I didn't notfiy my friends about my marriage and didn't invite them to my wedding dinner, so now I feel rather apologetic and didn't know how to approach them about the topic. I guess I would have to miss the birthday gathering for my secondary friends this June, as I really feel embarrassed to face them. My checkup is the day after next, will update soon! =)
