36th week of pregnancy

From the last pregnancy check up, I gained 4 kilos more in just 2 weeks! Oh no, this is not good. Not just that I'm very heavy now, but this means something's not right. I don't want any insulin shots! I must watch out my consumption at all times. Cut down all those sweet things, I must.

All the sweet things I got from my sister. Yummy yummy. Gone.

Since then, I've been making sandwiches & salads. I bought lots & lots of lettuce. But now, I'm getting tired of them. Ugggh! The last salad I made was egg salad.

Instead of using mayo, I substituted it with butter & olive oil, a little cheddar cheese & even more little of blue cheese. When I say little, I mean very little, less than a teaspoon size of them.

At my 36th week of pregnancy, my baby is still active. Moving & kicking around. I got worried sometimes, kenapalah active sangat ni? Dia tak comfortable ke? There are times when I notice a thud at a time and another thud the next. In the same rhythm. Apa ni? Dia marah kat mommy ke? Lack of attention ke? or something is not right?

As usual, I browsed through the Internet for the answers and found that baby is normally active at this stage. The moving and kicking means there's still a lot of room in the the tummy. Oh, so my baby takda la besar macam apa orang lain kata bila tengok my tummy. Yeah, most people who saw me face-to-face would say that my baby is BIG because my tummy is BIG. I got scared hearing this because I thought if my baby's too big, there's a high possibility that I will have to undergo C-sect! Now that is something I am trying to avoid. I really really want a normal vaginal delivery. Please, don't scare me anymore people.

Oh, and the 'thudding' part, it's the baby's hiccups. Is it good for baby to hiccup at a lot of times, like mine, takes more than 4 times in a day? Expert says it's a sign of a healthy baby! Alhamdulillah. Baby is practicing to breath. Good baby. I love you.

I am currently jobless as the legal firm I did my chambering with, intends to retain me only after I have delivered my baby & finished my confinement. Pandaikan management? Tak nak retain I coz nanti awal2 dah kena bagi maternity leave. So because of this, I postponed filing in my long call papers. What's the point, dah long call but tak boleh kerja lagi. Might as well I do it after my confinement too. Hihi. Emo kan mommy ni? Yes, so what.
