A woman within an ideal pre-pregnant body weight will gain about 10 to 17 kilograms during a healthy pregnancy. Amazingly, the baby only accounts for about one-fifth of the total weight (3 to 4 pounds only).

Most women lose about 5 kilograms during labor and delivery, from the weight of the baby, placenta and amniotic fluid. During the first week after delivery, women lose the additional weight of retained fluids. It is the stored fat that is the hardest to get rid of and the last to leave.

Where does the weight go? 2-3 kg of maternal stores (fat, protein, other nutrients), 1-1.5kg of increased fluid volume, 1.5-4kg of increased blood volume, 0.5-1kg of breast enlargement, 1kg of enlarging uterus, 3-4kg of baby, 1kg of amniotic fluid and 0.75kg of placenta.

Went to see doc 2 days back.
Baby was about 35wks 6 days

3060g = 3.06kg
OMG~~
I almost fainted!!
The baby is so big!
Doc says that by the time it's due,
it would weigh at least 3.4kg, no less!

I can feel the baby ~wiggling~
Like it's very anxious to come out..
I'm scared man!!!
I'm still working now...
I dun wanna be in labour when I'm in office!!!!

The Real You

  1. You've got great self-confidence and you're full of charm. Most guys who get to know you will be attracted to you. You are far from sweet and proper; your intriguing personality fascinates them. Most guys find it easy to fall for a girl like you.
  2. You don't really care about other people's feelings. You do things the way you want and usually think only about yourself. You are easy-going and love to have fun, but you can be irresponsible as well. You are not keen on serious discussions because they can make you remember that life isn't always about parties. (Not true at all!!! If it's nt serious discussion, why discuss at the first place?)
  3. You strictly follow rules, and you expect other people to be the same as well. People can get tired of you easily, as you can make them feel a little guilty about themselves. You always make decisions on your own, and can be dismissive of other people's advice. You like to be the leader in groups, but can forget to be concerned about the people you are with.
  4. Guys see you as being a thinker and a careful person. They will be really attracted to this quality in you, but you need to learn to speak your mind, otherwise people will find you too shy and quiet. Learn to relax and lighten up--it's okay to have fun sometimes. When you learn to develop your fun-loving side, guys are going to flock to your side. (Is that neccessary?)
  5. Your boyfriend believes that you are a strong and independent person. Your confidence and cheerfulness make you an attractive person to be around, but sometimes you need to pay more attention to what other people, including your boyfriend, are thinking. (I'm very dependant on my hubby. No doubt I'm a strong person...)

Quite crappy!!! Not very true...

Get to know yourself better

Your view on yourself:You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:You like serious, smart and determined people. You don't judge a book by its cover, so good-looking people aren't necessarily your style. This makes you an attractive person in many people's eyes.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:You prefer to get to know a person very well before deciding whether you will commit to the relationship.

The seriousness of your love:You like to flirt and behave seductively. The opposite sex finds this very attractive, and that's why you'll always have admirers hanging off your arms. But how serious are you about choosing someone to be in a relationship with?

Your views on educationEducation is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.

The right job for you:You're a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you'll be set for life.

How do you view success:You are afraid of failure and scared to have a go at the career you would like to have in case you don't succeed. Don't give up when you haven't yet even started! Be courageous.

What are you most afraid of:You are concerned about your image and the way others see you. This means that you try very hard to be accepted by other people. It's time for you to believe in who you are, not what you wear.


Who is your true self:You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve.

Stress!!

The pressure seems to add on rapidly as my due date drew nearer.
I feel so stress!
For money, for my health and for another new member in the family.

I can feel my health deteriorating.
My hands feeling numb all the time.
Pain at the side of my hips when i try to stand up from my sit.
Water retention is bad.
My leg is so swollen that it looks just like pig trotter.
I feel so heavy. I can't even move properly!

As usual, I've put on more than 20kg of weight during my whole pregnancy.
Wonder how long will it take me to lose all those extra pounds after
the baby is out.

Feeling so stress everyday! ! !

Black Dior Lovely Bag @ http://www.diorcouture.com/us/dior_us.html

I fall in love with this bag. How i wish i have the money to buy it.... =(

The design is so simple that it goes well with all sort of dressing.

Mother in Law came into the room when i was browsing through Dior website just now. Sje asked which is the one i like. And i told her this is the one... *How i wish she'll buy it for me!!!*
But i guess it's quite impossible. It's too expensive..

Ask dear dear to buy for me?
All the more impossible!!!!!!!

But I am no saint.
I'm working hard on it.

Quote of the Day

If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant: if we did not sometimes taste of adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome.
