Initially I had started a blog, but had forgotten the website so started on a new one. This is my first post, so forgive me if I sound serious or boring. Need to get my writing skills started again.
Never thought that the day will come when I truly give up my job to become a full time mother. I have always told friends that I will NEVER quit working as I can't imagine staying home doing nothing. And what did I do in the end? Resigned from my job and waiting to be a full time mother! That's why I've changed my motto. My new motto is "Never say never". You will never know what life throws at you.
So what do I do now at home while waiting for my baby to arrive? Cross stitch! Haven't been doing that since I started college and that surely felt ages ago. Still has the touch as there is no talent needed in cross stitching. Just follow instructions and voila! Cute picture at the end of the effort. Hhahaha! Though I wonder what the heck am I going to do with it once it's finished.
Ever wondered what people think of when they have time in their hands? I'm not sure about other people, but for me it's definitely my impending motherhood. For now till labour day (not the 1st of May..:P) I can sleep till anytime I want. (That's also another side benefit of not working...kekekek) I've been told that taking care of a baby is harder work than actual working in the corporate world. Since this one will be my first child, I wouldn't know the difference until the time actually comes when I can compare. And I can't wait to see my baby boy!
I have two of my friends who had given birth to their sons in May 2006. The babies are soooooo cute!! Make me more impatient for mine to come. One of my friend's (Flora) son, Gabriel, is really growing fast. He would be about 2 and a half months old now and he's getting more adorable everyday. Everytime I see him, he changes in size and looks. His hair is amazing! Looks like a Mohawk.
Oh well, I'll just have to wait till September to see my baby boy. I'm sure when he's out in this world, I'll miss feeling him moving inside me. Though I can't say I'll miss having him kick my poor, bruised ribs. There are several more things I will definitely will NOT miss from this pregnancy:

- Sleepless nights from having a tummy the size of a football
- Feeling hungry most of the time and eating like a glutton
- Feeling tired all the time from the weight of above-mentioned tummy and from the sleepless nights
- Nausea (though thank God I didn't vomit)
- Bloated legs and feet (felt like Big Foot)
- Difficulties in moving around (eg. walking, getting out of the car...) due to the above-mentioned tummy again
- Having to bear not eating some of my favourite food during the whole pregnancy (I miss my sushi!!!)
- And finally...the most dreaded one of all...my CONFINEMENT!!!
