Received some news from HDB the other day with regards to our appeal. Not so great, but I'll leave that for another entry (note: already drafted).
To distract myself away from all the recent negativities, I made a loooong list of to-do(s), and finished only two so far - ironing a week's worth of clothes & Mr. J's uniform plus putting in my hospital essentials in ziplocks & labelling them into categories. Feeling so proud of myself but come on, baru dua chores je dah penat. (What third trimester does to you). Alone times like these when Mr. J is having his day shift(s) are great, because I get to take my own sweet time & do my chores as and when I want to. Not that with him around is bad, but most of the time, we'll end up watching downloaded movies together (and maybe sleep away lol). So unproductive. Lulz.
Braxton hicks has been really strong of late & I think...my mucus plug has been slowly discharging itself from my system every other day. No obvious bloody show so far, which made me researched a bit about it and mummies who shared at forums also mentioned that you don't necessarily need to have a bloody show to be in labour. I seeee....
Speaking of which, I don't really like it when Mr. J is away for his night shifts because what if contractions come in realllly strong in his absence? I cannot be manja and step nak pengsan all hahahahha. Kidding. Well, we have placed all the important stuff at the corner of our room, all packed and ready to be brought to hospital. He has briefed me on what to bring & who to call first when it happens. But please please pleaseeee, hopefully he's around when it happens - not because I nak manja manja, but I can't imagine being alone at such a timing.
Anyways, we have passed the 37th week mark, Alhamdulillah. You can make your appearance already, little buddy. You will no longer be dubbed a premature baby anytime from now :) So excited to meet you already, insya'Allah. In other words, cepatlah keluar.......my petite size can't handle you anymore!

ironing a week's worth of clothes should be considered as 7 items off the to-do list. haha. sounds torturous, so good job Su! ����
