WEEK 38 - DAY 7

Nope. No sign of him wanting to come out. Probably just some contraction here and there, which is similar to pulling and pushing pressure in the stomach area. Stomach getting heavier and walking now seems a tad bit of difficult compare to before.

The common water retention also started happening to me few days ago. For example, swollen fingers and swollen feet. Mom says mine is mild since there are people who really have very swollen fingers and feet. Mine probably just cant fit into my wedding ring. Covered shoes seems fine still. So I am lucky.

Everything now is well prepared for his arrival. His name, his cot, his diapers, his milk formula, his tiny clothes, the breast pump, the toy to entertain him and the milk bottles are all brought and pack nicely.

The only thing that is not prepared well enough should be the new mummy emotional/physical/mental wellbeing. It is not about the anxiety of taking care of a newborn, but more of the delivery process. As this is the 1st baby, delivery time is usually quite long. And then there is the contraction pain which everyone rave about how un-tolerate it is. And then the side effect of having epidural such as shivering and vomiting. And then the sewing up of tear vagina hole. And then there is the going to toilet pee for the first time if not nurse/doctor will not allow you to discharge. All these, is if I can successfully go for a natural delivery. What if i develop something unexpected and c-sec need to be done. That’s another thing to worry. After all these, next will be the concern of sore nipples, engorgement, flappy tummy, losing of hair and perhaps also the start of sleepless nights.

My mom told me the night before that woman body are build amazingly with function for bringing child to life. The body are able to take the stress for carrying a full term baby 9-10 months and recover back the way it is. But it takes time. So patience is key here. The body might not feel as perfect as before giving birth to a child, but well, I will try to make it as perfect as it can be through regular exercise to strengthen back the loose ligaments/muscles/fats.

So for now, dear baby. Daddy and Mummy is waiting for your arrival. Is time to come out and play =)
