The pregnant monster in me

Today I woke up around 11plus (don't judge please - I have been having insomnia during pregnancy so I turn in late) - stretched my legs only to experience a reallllly bad muscle pull. Yeeeouwchhh! Had to self-massage since Mr. J was at work. :( Felt super hungry and weak almost immediately even though my first meal of the day was right after subuh after Mr. J has left for work. Foodpanda has been my go-to app recently. Looked at all the available food for purchase. Was inclined towards ordering Nene chicken but the minimum order was at least $18. What can I order with $18?! Delivery charge is an additional $3. While deciding, my energy level has reached weaker than weak and I have turned slightly cold turkey-ish. Had to "rush" to the kitchen and poured the Cocopops cereal messy in the bowl together with my fresh meiji milk. One serving wasn't enough. I had two. And a packet of chocolate biscuits. Still feeling hungry now. :/ *inserts cold turkey*

Regret I still have not made myself any frozen lauk. Could have been a saviour at times like this. (Notetoself#1 for next pregnancy perhaps - frozen lauk for 3rd trimester onwards. Or maybe purchase tingkat meals eh? Hee).

My hungry episodes for third trimester is tahap critical. I must ensure I have food and drinks by my side in the room. So whenever I wake up hungry, be it the morning, afternoon or late hours in the night, food and drinks will be readily available within reach. Yes, I've turned to a pregnant monster. I don't know how I'll be when baby's out and I need to breastfeed. Mummies say breastfeeding has turned them to monsters too. :/ Maybe I'll have a pantry of food inventory at a corner in my room eh? That sounds like a good plan. Haha. Gemok jugak aku nanti tau.

But first, before we angan-angan with all the food and pantry dreams, we need to start packing. Yes, pack to move lah. We need to start somewhere. Notetoself#2.

Oh and packing reminds me of the hospital bag. We have packed most of the stuff in "the bag". We will be using the Avent goodie bag that we got from the first breastfeeding class we attended. It's big enough for all my hospital essentials. Notetoself#3: Insya'Allah I will be sharing on the stuff that I pack in my hospital bag in another entry - for the sake of easy reference in the future.

My body is still giving me signals on hunger. Grrr. Gtg and make myself something easy. Oh, baby... Please don't tell me you're a big eater?

Just a last note to self for this entry - You've turned 35 weeks and 5 days as of today. Dah besar anak Mummy/Ibu. :') *rubs tummy & wipes imaginary tears*
