Weight: 62.5kg (+0.5kg since last week, overall +15.5kg)
Symptoms: acne, backache, pelvic pain, braxton hicks contractions, shortness of breath, water retention
Summary of the week:
20/8: late night mild contractions, nil pain.
21/8: super active Atty at night. had mild contractions and pelvic pain from walking more today. retook bloods for iron and vitamin D today.
22/8: Antenatal class - Topic 4 on practical skills for labour. this class was so fun. it was conducted by a physio who was super animated. she was like Honey, here there and everywhere, never staying in one spot for too long. never a dull moment in her class haha. we went through various positions for labour and also included massage techniques for partners to learn hehee, relaxation methods, breathing techniques etc.
23/8: Last antenatal class! on Waterbirth! apparently there are lots of restrictions for waterbirth. if baby comes preterm then cannot do waterbirth... so Atty needs to hang in there until 37 weeks at least hehee. keep getting contractions these days, so feeling quite anxious if she is going to come early...
24/8: abdominal discomfort today, likely due to a combination of braxton hicks and heartburn or indigestion...
25/8: whenever i wake up during the night to stretch, Atty also wakes up and moves around haha. maybe i woke her up with my movements. or maybe she is moving all along and i only become aware of it when i wake up. today is the 9th dating anniversary for King and I~ no special celebrations though... we just went out to eat and went to watch the movie Atomic Blond. got McDonald's hotcakes for brunch and then fried chicken after the movie.
26/8: took home maternity photos today. see previous post for photos~ still having ongoing contractions, especially at night and in the morning.
