Dear Pororo,

Mummy is sick again. Mummy had fever over the weekends and block nose too. I took panadol and piriton to relieve the body aches caused by the fever. The feeling was terrible and i slept the whole day. I had to take medications to ease the symptoms. 2 doses of panadol and piriton were all I took. I don't want to affect you in anyway.

Mummy wanna get well soon. Daddy had read that prolong fever or flu during pregnancy may caused autism to unborn child. That's scary... But I believed so. Thus mummy is avoiding food that are heaty in nature, hoping to recover in the most natural way.

Mummy has been putting on weight! So do you. LOL. Up til now, mummy has put on 11kg, and you, weighing 1.7kg at 31 weeks. Everything is just nice and dr Wong foresees that you will be a 3kg baby. :) I will try to eat healthily from now onwards. Probably I will forgo the durian cravings. ( However mummy has weak control over cravings!) Mummy want to slim down as soon as possible in the most easy way. Lol. Daddy says that mummy is not fat, I know that, just that I want to be able to fit into my old jeans and dresses. Women are like this. Haha.

Ok last but not least, just a random picture of my belly button. It's not exactly popped, but it is quite shallow now and you can see the dark line forming, some pimples, lots of hairs and pigmentation inside the belly button. Looks like dirty belly button right? Lol.

Week 30

Hi Pororo~~~

Mummy is on sick leave for today and tomorrow. Mummy has got flu virus and kept having runny/block nose on and off. It's really terrible. I thought I can recover naturally by resting more, but it seems that this virus is stronger~~ thus I went to visit a doctor and got some medications. I just hope that you are not affected, and not "disturbed" by my constant sneezing..

Alrighty, mummy has got a checklist from Dr Wong on what to bring for admitting to the hospital when I'm delivering you. I should start packing from week 36. So, here's the checklist for easy reference and probably some blog readers out there:

• 2 sets of pyjamas (front button tops will be more suitable for breast feeding)
• Underwear and nursing bra
• Cardigan, socks
• Personal toiletries (or you can use the hospital's)
• Small towel (for face / wiping breast before breastfeeding)
• Bath towel (if you don't wish to use the hospital's)
• Breast pump
• Camera / charger
• Mobile charger

The hospital mentioned that they will provide sanitary pads, but if you are used to your own brands, you may bring your own too. I guess I will bring some of my own.... Also, all baby items will be provided - so I don't need to pack for the little one. Good~! The above checklist are the items provided by TMC... so those who are giving birth elsewhere, the list may subject to changes.

Ok, now let's talk about the preparation of welcoming my little pororo. :) I downloaded a very detailed checklist for preparing for newborn.. and I can proudly say that I got 90% of the items covered. LOL. I had a lot of hand-me-down clothes and I had packed those that little Pororo can wear when he is out... so probably 2 weeks before the EDD, I will wash them and get them all ready.

That's all for me.

Mummy loves you~! Just 8-10 more weeks to go~! Whee!!!
