Oh boy!

I was reading my previous posts to refresh my memory on which part of my life have I stopped blogging. I realized it was about me trying to breastfeed Gabrielle and not wanting to diet at that point!

Right.... despite all the milk boosters I've bought, consumed.. etc. etc. My milk supply did not increase at all! Why? because..... IM PREGNANT AGAIN! weeee~ (No, I'm not addicted to pregnancy life; I just want to get over and done with pregnancy for good ASAP)

Some mothers may want to spend more time with their current kid before having the next. Seriously? I think that is very normal. I guess I am the abnormal one. I do not enjoy having a break of 2 years, then come the 2nd one. I find it a torture. LOL. On the other hand, I'm currently having a dilemma of having a break of 2-3 years before having no.3 and no.4. If no.3 ever comes, I think I will regret again during the 1st 3 months of torturous morning sickness.

This pregnancy is sooooo different from the first one. Let's talk about the first trimester, the hot topic of  all pregnant mothers -

Morning Sickness

1st pregnancy: So freaking bad. I dread going to work; it was a real challenge. Every smell especially FISH made me want to puke. There was a point that I was dehydrated till I need to be on drip. Tired... lethargic.. vomit... tired.. lethargic.. vomit.. and... repeat.

2nd pregnancy: On and off morning sickness. Gastric pain was not as bad as the first one (may be due to confinement that made my gastric stronger- never know). Not so tired and not much appetite.

Cravings

1st Pregnancy: After the 1st 3 months of morning sickness, I craved for carbs, meat, ice cream and waffles! I ate like no tomorrow. Cos no one gonna judge a preggy when they eat. haha!

2nd Pregnancy: I only craved for salad.... and fish. I'm so crazy about cod fish and .. fillet o fish! I'm so happy lah, my cravings this pregnancy so bloody healthy. hehe. Yes, no one is going to judge a pregnant lady when they eat, so I judge myself.

Weight Gain

1st Pregnancy : I was 81kg at least at full term? Didnt manage to weigh myself as I was on maternity leave... Total weight gain of 26-28kg~~~

2nd Pregnancy : I lost 2.2kg during the first trimester, Now at 5 months pregnant, I gained about 1kg nett. I find it a lot eh! Because I was bingeing on fillet o fish for 3 nights! yikes!!!! I need help! I need mac to ban me from drive thru.
