20 weeks

It has been such a longggg time since I last updated this blog. There is no real explanation for the lack of post, except for being plain lazy and.. pregnant! Yes tomorrow, I will be 20 weeks into my pregnancy, which means I am half way there..!

So far things have been progressing well with the pregnancy. I have not really experienced any serious morning sickness, except feeling a bit nauseous in the mornings during the 10-12 week mark. Apart from that, the changes with my body.. is something I have mixed feelings about. Some days I like it, other days I don't. I have been trying to hide my baby bump in the office, and today was the first day I returned to work after our holiday back to Malaysia, and still no one noticed under my loose top. My friends kept asking if I have told my colleagues yet, and the answer is No. I just do not know how to break the news. I can't possibly tell people in our daily morning meetings, could I?

Being pregnant also puts me on an emotional roller coaster... small things that upsets me such as a bit of stress at work, makes me run into the toilets and I cry.. Can you imagine when I have fights with Grumpy? I really do burst into tears, and I kid you not, I seriously cry.. and cry and cry and cry.. oh dear! I sometimes think that because I have had a fairly easy pregnancy so far, he often forgets that I really am pregnant.

We got back from KL on Sunday at midnight. We had Monday to rest. I also went for my 20-week ultrasound, a blood test and a hospital appointment. The baby is tracking along well, and I am very pleased! Sometimes I stop and think, ohmigawd, I am going to be a mother! OMG OMG OMG! The thought of it still makes me extremely nervous. Nervous about the unexpected.

Okay just a short post today. More pictures to come, especially pictures from our beach holiday at Pangkor Laut Resort.

Good night!
