My life since then....



We found out that we were pregnant around 3 weeks ago.

I was a week late and had asked Mr Judge to stop by the local pharmacy to purchase the home pregnancy test. I'm already a pro at this, since I've been buying the product on a monthly basis by now. However, instead of purchasing 1 package, I just grabbed 2 instead.

Went back home to test it out.

Usually, this would be the most suspense part. I was really expecting for only a single line. Instead, there was another faint line on the stick...

Betul ke nieh?

I tore open another stick and did the test again....

POSITIVE!

Washed the stick and went to show Mr Judge the result. I can see his face turned from confused to happy in a split second.


Since that day...

... I can no longer eat eggs and beef without feeling queasy inside
... I can only eat McD's nuggets for almost a week
... I can't get a peaceful sleep every night
... I've stopped drinking coffee - the hardest sacrifice so far
... I feel tired all the time
... I need a shoulder and back rub on a daily basis


I really really hope that this would be a smooth sailing pregnancy... If it's anything like my mom's three experiences, then I can count on having a good one too, Insyaallah.

I've been doing a lot of reading, on the net and also books. However, I think the best book that I've read so far is "Belly Laughs: The Naked Truth About Pregnancy and Childbirth" by Jenny McCarthy. Yeah.. THAT Jenny McCarthy. The book is really honest and tells you everything, and I mean EVERYTHING that people sometimes don't tell you about being pregnant. I love it!





binx: no, this is not gonna be a pregnancy blog (if I can help it)
