rather smooth sailing week!
still having some mild lingering nausea that comes on in the afternoon or at night, but at times i'm not sure whether it's nausea or just an uncomfortable feeling when i have eaten too much.
and the occasional acne breakout is still present.
my back pain and pelvic girdle pain seems better this week.
weight is 54.8kg (+0.4kg in the past week, overall +7.8kg). hope the weight gain maintains around 0.5kg per week... at least that's more like it. let's see the weight trend next week.
Atty is kicking up a storm as usual, especially active at night and in the early morning. at times she is quite active in the afternoon too. when she is super active the kicks are at a frequency of 10 kicks or so within a minute hehee. she is really living up to her nickname 'Atty' which sounds like '爱踢' (meaning 'loves to kick') in mandarin, lol. and apparently the name 'Atty' in celtic language means 'strong like a bear' haha... some of her kicks are really strong.. keeps me awake at night and even wakes me up in the early morning! can even see my tummy move where she kicks!
i love to feel her kicks <3 it's such a magical feeling. it's also nice to get the feedback and know that she is doing well... should be developing well as she is so active. initially before i could feel fetal movement i couldn't help but worry... wondering if she is growing well or getting enough nutrients especially since my morning sickness was quite bad then and was hard to get in balanced meals. such a relief to start feeling those fetal movements and kicks... and kicks that are getting stronger haha.
so now my favorite hobby is just placing my palm on my tummy and feeling her movements. sometimes i play with her by poking one side of my tummy and at times she will kick back. don't know if it's just a coincidence or she is reacting to my poke hehe. 做妈妈各式各样的自作多情又来了~
Haha, that is fun!
