My Pregnancy Experience..

On 21st June 2006, Sau Kien and Huiying went to ROM and took their vow.

On 27 May 2007, we hold our Chinese customary wedding and after spending 6 months of honeymoon period, we decide to have our own baby.

On 28 March 2008, we came to US..no good news yet.

On 24 December 2008, we found out that I'm pregnant! And the EDD is 26 August 2009.

The first trimester....
Omg..since the day I found out that I'm pregnant, I had not been feeling well. Feel so nausea, giddy and breathless. I dun feel like eating anything. Even if I eat, I will throw up in 30 minutes time. If I dun throw up, I will feel very very giddy. I only survive on Milo and Ritz biscuit tat period. Simply can't intake anything else.

Hubby took over the chef role for this 3 months. He learned to cook bee hoon soup, porridge and also the dishes I used to cook. Well, luckily a quick learner.. haha.. never gave me a chance to eat over cooked food or over salty food. Hmm..maybe is teacher (me) good la.. haha!

And due to the weather (winter), the air is very thin. I always get breathless..almost went to buy a oxygen tank. Haha.. exaggerate right.. but is true.. sometimes I almost can't breath. I had been lying on bed sleeping and sleeping for the whole month. No cooking.. no playing of games.. no watching of tv.. just sleep, eat and throw up. What a terrible month.. but luckily, it doesn't last long.. just about 4 - 5 weeks.

The second trimester....

Soon.. I was in the second trimester. Tummy had shown up le.. keke. Though I was feeling better and no more vomiting.. but my appetite was not that good yet. Taking many small meals everyday. During the second trimester, we had a holiday trip to LA and LV. Well, the weather was still cold and I wore few layers of clothings. Perhaps because I'm pregnant.. tat's why I'm weaker and feel more cold. Once I feel hungry, I feel like to vomit. So I bought biscuits, sweets and raisin with me no matter where I go. My body gets stronger day by day and I'm back to the normal life.. cooking..watching shows.. playing games and shopping. We started shopping around surveying what type of cribs and stroller to buy. And started buying baby's clothings when we knew it's a BOY! keke

The third trimester...

Now it's the last trimester..tummy had got even bigger. Everything's ready. Baby's crib, stroller, car seat, milk bottles, clothings, etc. And my parents will be reaching in 5 days time. And all we got to do now and wait for the arrival of our little Prince Liew. My appetite now was still good. But baby is growing up and somtimes just felt the pressure on my tummy and can't stand.. Sometimes got to "carry" the tummy to walk. Haha.. funny le. Baby had been kicking vigorously everyday and I had been enjoying this feeling. So do daddy Liew.. haha.. somtimes he put his face on my tummy and let baby kick him. Haha..

Although hubby was very tire after work but he still help out to cook and most important, he cook those tonics for me. Keke.. bird nest and pao shen. Whenever he cooks the tonics, I wanna laugh. He's so busy.. running in and out of the bedroom and kitchen. Just to check if the tonics was over steaming.. whether the water runs dry.. haha.. I told him put more water and steam at low heat can liao.. dun need run here and there.. but he still keeps running. Haha.. anxious papa..

At first before getting pregnant, I had worries.. If I will be able to take care of baby myself? But now I feel more secure. Throughout the pregnancy period, hubby really make me feel secure and I believe he will love our baby alot and he will always be there for me and baby.

Happy Independence Day!!

Woah.. a year had passed so quickly! Where was I last year? Haha.. we are with a big group of new friends in Vegas! And that was the 1st time I went to Vegas.

This year we had a long weekend.. off from work from Friday to Monday. But we did not go to Vegas as we just went on Memorial day. But we had a very busy, tiring and fun time in AZ.

On Friday, we went shopping at Scottsdale. But on our way there, Jason's car broke down! OMG.. the weather out there is so freaking hot.. I wan to melt liao! Really hated summer. Haha..
Haiz.. summer is spoiling all car.. Memorial day go tour..Ah chua's car air-con spoil.. Independence day is Jason's turn. Oh my..so scare to go out nowadays. We are so suay.. haha
Finally we manage to slowly drive the car to a nearby car repair shop. And we called Ah Chua to come down and "save" us. Because we got no car.. we are stuck. Haha.. luckily he had not yet went out or else haiz.. duno who can save us liao. Almost everyone is in Vegas! haha..
When ah chua reached, we went to Scottdales shop awhile and went to Olive Garden for dinner. Really enjoyed the food and services there. Hm.. due to our hungry tummy, we did not managed to make it in time for the fireworks display at Anthem. But we still went over there after dinner to grab some good deals. Guess what? My boys' shorts are only selling at US$0.99 each! which I previously paid $4.99 when it's on sale.

After the late night shopping till past midnight, we went home and get ready for tomolo's event. Haha.. all of us fell asleep (except ah chua the driver) on the way home and were unable to get to sleep when we are home. So hubby and Jason decide to go eat breakfast and went to pick up the rented car at airport. Haiz.. super hero.. never sleep whole day and whole night.

We set off at 6am from my place and off we drove to Desert Hill. Haiz.. it's such a disappointment. No good deals there..in fact so many China tourist. See them grab and snatch at the Coach, Gucci and Burberry store.. just like pasar malam on super duper sale. Make me no mood to shop at all. haiz.. only bought a few clothings for baby at OshKosh. THAT'S ALL!!
Next, we went to Ontario Mills..haiz..even worst.. went there for the sake of Abercombie and Hollister.. but no nice clothings.. such a waste of time travelling. Lastly, in order to pamper ourselves for not buying much stuffs..we decide to have a good meal before going home. We went to Hooters! haha.. munching naked chicken wings with onion rings..shiok..

For the third day (Sunday), we were so tire from the driving around yesterday..but still got to wake up.. why? No water liao!! die die must go base and take water and get some grocery. After the replenish of food and water, we went to World Buffet for dinner. Keke.. sushi again.. keke. Oh well.. what to do after dinner? Still early.. haiz.. they guys decide to go Casino.. so i go home and play my barn buddy lo.. but it's ok la.. my body is so exhausted liao.. haha.

It's the last day of holiday.. some of the guys are back from Vegas too.. so we met up around 10+ and went for dim sum. Hm..maybe it's weekday.. not much variety to eat. :(
After brunch, we went to pick up Jason's car from the "hospital" Haha.. fully recovered now.. but think Jason's heart is bleeding liao.. haiz... After getting the car.. we went to Ranch.. get some stuff..and went home. But after reaching home, Jason say wan go shopping at Chandler! Koaz.. just came back from Scottsdale..den go back that area again..but we still go la.. haha.. Well.. not a wasted trip..got myself a dress from Abercombie. Keke

Lastly, we went to Lan Tian for dinner. We ordered a whole roasted duck! Oh my.. so cheap.. $15 only! And it's so tasty!

What a tiring long weekend... though we did not go anywhere for holiday but I did enjoyed myself on this 4 days.. with the guys.. Patrick call us "the usual suspect" haha..me, hubby, Jason, Ah chua, Robin, etc.. Haha... Happy Holidays!!
