When the news of my pregnancy is announced. Everyone congratulates me.It is definitely a joy. But this piece of joy has a price to pay!
This congratulating news comes in a package like a "hamper"!
I've unwrapped morning sickness, vomiting, rashes, backaches, leg pain, heartburn, hair loss, stretch marks, and now RASHES again?!
My whole back is covered with red raised bumps. That looks like insect bites. Sometimes it itches like hell. Everynight I hope my hormones will balance out and everything goes back to normal, but it does not seems as that is so likely. It looks so ugly, it really bothers me when I looked into the mirror. Thank God they did not appear on my face, and that's the most comforting part. There are definetly good and bad days, and all I can do is roll with the punches. Hopefully it will disappear after giving birth.
I googled and found this website they define the common types of rashes.
Rashes that only occur in pregnancy are:
1.PUPPP - (pruritic urticarial papules and plaques of pregnancy)
2.herpes gestationis
3.impetigo herpetiformis
4.papular dermatitis of pregnancy
5.prurigo gestation
After reading the descriptions, I'm still clueless of which type mine belongs to. Gonna ask my gynae on the next visit.
Well, despite all the woes I'm going through I'm still thankful as
Every child is a unique and special gift from God to us!

Shopping for our bundle of joy
Just made payment for the wall decal yesterday. Can't wait to deco our baby's room! me and Henry are really looking forward to our bundle of joy arrival. Having a baby is so NOT expensive at all.
Few days ago, we bought diapers, Though The function is somewhat similar to a pad. Both are for absorbing purposes. But the price is so NOT similar! Then we bought baby's clothes washing detergent. I didn't know that we have to separate adults n infant clothes till I was told by another mommy that it's necessary. Well the detergent is also quite ex. Last item was nursing bras. It is so UNSEXY! No wonder they said that being a mother is a big big sacrifice! But I love the feeling. :) tee Hee.
We are still looking around for a nice cot. Initially we wanted a playpen, but after much consideration we felt that cot is better as it is more durable, sturdy and safe for babies, Imm is not a recommended place to shop for newborn stuffs. We are going to the expo next week for parenthood fair. Hopefully can get one that we really like.
Mr Koh is kind of fussy when comes to buying technical or I.t stuffs. He will compare the parts, the materials, the durability, the user friendliness la.. Etc... Me on the other hand go for outlook more. As long as it looks good, pretty, cute, pink, trendy or sexy, the design n colors must attract me otherwise I won't buy it. Maybe that's the difference in man n woman? Or just me n him? Anyway it's a compliment!

Visit to Gynae Link.
In week 36 now. Baby weighs 2.3kg now.. Everything normal just that he is slightly small size. Dr Don said is norm because of my petite size. Myself weighs 49kg, no gain at all since my last visit which is 2 weeks ago? hmmm.. Don't ask me why, I am Puzzled too. Maybe his weighing scale is faulty? I ate as per normal leh.. Next Visit 25th Nov. Now that the D-day is drawing near, the frequency of my check up is changed to once every week.
TO DO list...
My TO DO list
I have a 101 to do in my list! which one to start first? Haha. Here's my top 10.
1. medi, pedi
2. dye / highlight hair ( getting sick of my 40% black n 60% brown! argh~)
3. wear my killer heels ( already bought 4 pairs, they are just sitting in the shoe cabinet waiting for my foot..)
4. drink coke
5. lash extension ( i may strike off this, still considering. haha.)
6. eat lots of oyster
7. ............... prawns
8. ................ crabs
9. ................ sashimi (don't be surprise if i put on another 10kilos!!! muahahah..)
10. buy a gift to pamper myself!
The last one is definitely not an excuse ok! i really feel is a MUST, to reward myself for going through the 9 months, comfort myself with all the hair loss, weight gained, stretch marks la..bla bla bla...)
