2nd wedding anniversary

Yesterday was our 2nd wedding anniversary.

we had leftover dinner for breakfast, had dim sum for lunch, movie in afternoon, and dinner at my parents' house.

nothing special or romantic.

its quite pathetic as this is only the 2nd yr! and neither of us remembers it, let alone look forward to it or plan anything special for that day. ok, we have valid excuse like xl was overseas for work, or i am still getting use to the pregnant symptoms etc. but, still kinda feel disappointed that i still dun hav any present for this special day until now...

baby 爱吃什么

我又是在三更半夜爬起来觅食。
自从怀孕后,我的口味变重了,爱吃辣的,炸的。薯条,薯片,炸鸡,这些我几乎不碰的东西变成我爱吃的东西。我最爱的叉烧,奶茶现在竟然碰也不想碰。人都在笑说baby继承了xl的口味。我开始也很不服气,baby怎么好学不学,学xl的不良饮食习惯呢?

后来慢慢观察,其实baby还是喜欢很多我喜欢的东西。像酸酸甜甜的咕噜肉,像雪糕,炒粿条等等食物还是会让我胃口打开。xl特别喜欢的鸡饭会让我反胃。baby也不喜欢我最讨厌的粥。我们从来都不热衷的pizza和炒面baby却很爱。

baby,妈妈错了。你是特别的。只是下次我吃健康点的东西,你能学着也喜欢吃吗?我不想成为大肥婆啊。。。。

情绪化的我

我又是一大清早,天还没亮的四、五点醒来。吃了一块饼干,肚子还是不知道是饿了还是涨了的不舒服地让我睡不着。看着XL熟睡的脸,我就莫名地哭了。本来就爱哭的我,怀孕后更是情绪化得有点极端。看一张照片哭,听一个故事哭,想一件事哭,看一个广告哭,看戏更不用说也哭。有时候想吐,吐不出来哭。有时候吐完了哭。有时候吃不下哭。有时候太饿也哭。

那我刚刚为什么看着XL会哭呢?

是嫉妒他可以睡得那么香?
是感动有这么一个他在我身旁宠我、爱我、照顾我?
是庆幸我能怀着他的孩子,即使小小的小生命折腾着我的生活?

这几个月听了很多让我很激动的故事。有妈妈要和爸爸离婚,丢下两个年幼的女儿,明知女儿和丈夫有可能会无家可归还逼着要卖掉房子。有连名字都取好了,宝宝却就这样没有了。有怀着BB不能吃不能睡还坚持每天做工的。有很想要有个孩子,却一而再再而三的失望的。有孩子生病进医院妈妈担心得不得了的。

幸福不容易

常常我们都在追求与知足之间拉扯。

我不能说我怀孕的过程很艰难,但也并不容易。毕竟本来健健康康的身体,一决定要有孩子就出一大堆怪怪的问题,我也很懊恼。很庆幸自己害喜没那么严重,但发现大部分同事怀孕时根本都没有害喜,我就觉得上天真不公平。有时候也难免觉得,这3公分的小生命怎么会带给我那么多痛苦呢?消极的想法出现要提醒自己惜福。有些事不能比较,有些事要珍惜,有些事要放弃。

天降大任于斯人,必先苦其心志,劳其筋骨,饿其体肤,空乏其身。

是啊,好一个'饿其体肤,空乏其身'。。。以前怎么运动,不吃鸡饭都无法瘦下来。如今短短一星期我就减去我这三年来的多出来的体重,我应该开心的。这“大任”真是得来不易,我应该惜福!

Cha Soba


Green Noodles with greens!

Being pregnant and staying at home, means I have to cook some simple meals for myself. Cha Soba with green vegetables is a great choice, as its healthy, very easy to cook and will be ready in minutes. (Oh but wait... its cold... hmmm should be fine right?)

The Black Pictures

其实从去年就想要有孩子了。可是身体不争气,经期不准,生病,甚至好几个月都测不出排卵期。在每个月的失望中还必须应付不同的人的催促:"你们几时才要生啊?""几时到你们啊?""年轻点生baby比较好啊"其实是难受的。在极度失望又极度期盼中,我怀孕了。开始还有点无法相信,由其验孕棒显现的那第二条线似有若无。第一个星期,XL一直是处在欣喜若狂又不可置信的状况。


This is the first "Black picture" as what RQ and me affectionately calls it. I was alone when the doctor tried means and ways to magnify the small white dot to measure the length. (Coz the scan is done through vaginal as baby was too small, XL was asked to leave the room)
"This white dot is my baby?" is the only thing I could think of, until the doctor showed me 'its' heartbeat. The white dot became a flickering white dot. "My baby is alive!"


One month later, another black picture was taken. (last week) We were both amazed how fast baby has grown, I mean, baby is no longer a white dot! There's head, eyes, little hands, little feet, and it is only 3cm!

XL din noe there is a big screen in front of me, he tried very hard to see from the small screen the doctor is looking at. So he missed the flickering white light which is supposed to be baby's heartbeat. Nevertheless, we left the room feeling excited and looking forward to the next photo-taking session!

我是只吸血鬼

我是只吸血鬼,一直都感到饥饿,却不想吃。
所有的情绪都被放大,嗅觉无可救药地灵敏。
我可以不要闻到那么多味道吗? 很多味道其实很难闻。
不能,因为这已经是我的本能。
我能不要那么多感觉吗?很多的感觉其实让我很难受。
不能,因为我已没办法控制。
因为我已是一只吸血鬼,不再是正常的人类。
我还在等待发掘我其他的特异功能。也许我该学会怎么switch off所有痛苦的感觉。。。

等了又等

从小等着长大,上课时等下课,上学等放假,读书等毕业。等了那么久,毕业找到工作才发现,还是有很多的等待。上班等下班,月头等月底领薪水,领薪后等存钱,存钱等房子,买房后等结婚,结婚后等生小孩。生小孩又是等等等:等新的一个月开始,要等两个星期,等了两星期后等三个月,等了三个月,还要等半年,半年后又是一个一生的等待。

等待是一种期待。

现在我在等提名日赶快到,然后就等大选到。你也和我一样吗?
