To sum up the whole first trimester

Week 1-4
I didn't expect to get BFP this cycle as I didn't know when I have ovulated because as usual the positive OPK did not coincide with temp rise but when my temperature remains high after CD31, I decided to not wait until CD36 to test and tested on CD33 instead.  Got an instant BFP on both types of POAS.

Week 5-8
Was very nervous and anxious because of my past miscarriage.  Praying hard to get through 8 weeks.  Morning sickness had hit.  Not as bad as what Princess Kate has but was bad enough to stop me from performing at work.  It can hit anytime but still controllable as in I managed to run to the toilet each time I feel like gagging.  Decided to see doctor and get anti-nausea pill, Maxalon.  First visit to the ObGyn was great.  Heartbeat at 100bpm at Week 6 and 174bpm at Week 8.

Week 9-12
The worse week was at Week 11.  Maybe because baby is positioning itself from the pubic bone to lower abdomen.  Stomach was uncomfortable the whole time one day, like want to do big business all the time and at the same time constipated.  Morning sickness becoming more and more violent and can only stomach some food if I take Maxalon.  My body has breakout into acnes and I am not talking about on the face.  It's on my back, bum and thighs.  Fatigue hit so badly that I want to sleep all the time.  Heartbeat at 154bpm at Week 13.

All in all, first trimester was not easy for me.  Morning sickness was difficult and unpredictable.  On top of that, I think the acid reflux problem that I had before pregnancy came back during pregnancy and I have to vomit everything out including acid and bile in order to feel soothe.  I have to eat anti-nausea pill in order to get some food in the stomach although I tried my best to avoid any medication as much as possible.

I have no cravings and now wondering when will I start having cravings.  I only have food aversions and till now I have no idea what I want to eat or what I like to eat.  It's not like I hate food but it's just difficult to stomach some food.  Till now, chocolate has been a no-no.

One day I would be eating some food nicely and the next I am so off that same food.  That's what happened to my favourite asam laksa.  Now I can't stand asam laksa.

I tried to avoid seafood or meat and also because I have no appetite for them.  It's because when these stuff comes out of the stomach, the taste is so fishy and unbearable. Very, very nasty.

Review: Grand Lexis vs Lexis Hibiscus at Port Dickson

I have been to both and can honestly tell you that I much preferred Lexis Hibiscus to Grand Lexis.  And here's why. Lexis Hibiscus Pros: 1. Very near to the highway. 2. Located near the beach (although very small area). 3. Food stalls located within walking distance to the hotel. 4. Better services from the staff. 5. Bigger pathway for walkers and cyclist (for those who like to do some walking and cycling). 6. Better view of the sea. 7. Swimming pool is located outside the chalet with sea view (depends where the chalet is facing). 8. Sauna is provided in the chalet. 9. Wide spread of breakfast buffet. Cons: 1. A bit more pricey. 2. Public pool is boring. 3. No kitchenette. 4. If it rains, the sound on the roof is very loud because of the material of the roof (sounds like zinc roof). 5. Toilet door is without lock.   Grand Lexis Pros: 1. Nice public pool with slides for the kids. 2. Big swimming pool inside each room. 3. W...

The Big Kindy Search Continues

Since my last The Big Kindy Search post , I have been looking around for kindies and been visiting some.  Here's my feel about them all. 1) Tadika Diyana Read good reviews about this and decided to check them out, though out of our way and far from home.  I love how the price is quite ok but still a bit on the high side (you can check it out at their website). I visited the premise and I really love how it is run like a mini primary school.  It's huge, with its own hall, field and canteen, although downsize version and it's just like a school.  Not like a bungalow with rooms as classroom.   However, I have decided not to send my girl because they will be moving to Sungai Penchala (further up from TTDI, near to the Penchala Link), which will be much further from our home.  Though they do have transporters, but I feel very wary about sending my 4 year old (next year) to a transporter. What I like about Tadika Diyana is they have 2 medi...

PPUM Pediatrics Emergency Department

Being a mom proves to be the hardest job in the world.  Accidents do happen but when they actually happened, most people will panic and unsure what to do.  And when it involves kids, and being the mother of the only child, with no prior emergency experience, this is a traumatizing and frightening episode and a lesson for me to learn. My 3.5 years old girl was being very curious and naughty that fateful day.  She stood on the chair and play with my massage oil and containers and broke one of the small glass cups and when she panicked she came down from the chair and stepped on the broken glass. She was bleeding a lot and crying.  Since this happened at about 10.30pm, my first response was to drive her to a 24-hour clinic.  So, we went to the 24-hour Mediviron clinic but was turned away by the nurses, stating that her case is very serious and need to be referred to a hospital instead. My mind at that time was running at full speed.  I wasn't sure...
