Mi Mi working from home on a cool and rainy afternoon

Thank God that I managed to accomplish the work that I need to complete by this week. :)

It has been a long time since I updated this journal. Initially, we wanted to keep this (my pregnancy) as our little secret until Christmas (after 1st trimester). We only told our parents and pastors. But well, I think God has a better plan... our little secret is not easy to keep under wraps. Firstly, I experience occasional spotting that occus when I exert myself too much... extra walking, standing or even sitting is a no-no. Secondly, my appetite changed drastically.... ok, God must have heard my prayers... when I prayed (or did I just think about it only??) that I want to "feel" more pregnant than my first pregnancy. Fyi, I don't feel anything in my first pregnancy which I thought is not a very good sign. So, yours truly is now experiencing the "signs and wonders" of being pregnant - nauseous, bloatedness, loss of appetite, fatigue and even giddy sometimes. Maybe I should have kept my big mouth shut. :(

The past 2 weeks seems to be like 2 years to me. Although I'm only about 6 weeks pregnant, I feel that I have been pregnant for the longest time. Many people said that these symptoms will subside after the 1st tri but I'm really feeling terrible. I really don't like the idea of home-bound but for the sake of our little one, I guess I don't really have a choice. *sigh*

Sometimes, I wonder how baby is doing inside... we can only "see" him each time we visit the gynae. I guess like every concerned mother-to-be, I really hope my baby will be healthy, lively and joyous. I guess all the discomfort and agony expereinced during pregnancy will just be overwhelmed and forgotten when I get to see my baby one day... healthy, lively and joyous. :)

Thank you Jesus for allowing me to experience this miracle of life!
