36 weeks & waiting...

Alright, I started this blog way way late, like "only" 31 weeks after the test kit showed a positive for my pregnancy. I've had two 10-days MCs for flu & two 10-days hospital leave for low amniotic fluid levels since then, not to mention the sometimes overwhelming & sometimes underlying emotions I've had during those weeks leading up to now, yet I didn't get over the inertia to start what I've been wanting to...the blog. THE blog. THE BLOG to come to in the wee hours when everyone else is sleeping & I'm up breastfeeding. THE BLOG to update my friends on what's been happening, to share info gathered & tips learnt, to gossip.

Not going to recap systematically whatever has happened.... I'll just start here with my baby boy at 36 weeks in me coming to 37 weeks. & by the way, 2 weeks ago I've had the feeling that he's coming anytime. Some of my friends thought I'm too excited or too tired with the weight & didnt buy it. Then last week my gynae informed me he's already 3.2kg & engaged. Means I'm ready anytime he's ready. Means I am half right, the other half will depend on when he actually comes. Which by the way I feel is end of this week. Hopefully 12th December.

so in the past week, I've done my best to settle work obligations. This week is my rest & chill week. I want to enjoy doing my own stuff, hanging out alone at home, not running errands or thinking about work.

Most of all, just want to relish the joy of feeling him moving about in me, & savour the feeling of being pregnant for the FIRST time. You can only have a first pregnancy once. I want to enjoy every minute of the last few moments of anticipation - be it minutes, hours or days - before I meet him face to face. And then, probably, I'll fall in love with him over again.
