The day before the test...

Tomorrow, I'll be going for my diabetes test at KKH.


Because my grandma had history of diabetes, KT Tan (my gynae) just wanted to be sure I wasn't prone to be diabetic as well. I really hope not cause that would mean off-limits to chocolates, ice creams and even lower intake of carbo. THAT MEANS NO FRENCH FRIES TOO!!! :(


Anyway, I can't wait to see my baby again. That's the only time I get to see him 'visually' and know he's doing well. Dylan even mentioned that "Tomorrow, bb will say hello to us again". hehehehe... I find that amusing...


It's still 4 months away before bb gets to come to this world. The anticipation is killing me, the thoughts of being a mother is killing me, the frustration of whether I can breast feed is killing me... ...


I've bought most of the stuff already so shopping sprees will cease this week... ... That also means NO RETAIL THERAPY, AND IT'S KILLING ME!!! :(

Going on baby spree is really...

THEURAPATIC!!!!!


Over the span of weeks, I spent most of my weekends combing the entire baby stores in Singapore. After all, it's the GSS - Great Singapore Sale! What better period to spend , spend, spend right? ;)


A preview at some of the things we've stashed so far...

Don't be mistaken. This is just 1/3 of the things we've bought. The bb room is brimmed with lots of shopping bags. Cannot imagine just preparing for one additional member of the family needs so many things!

Dylan and I personally like the stroller and car seat the most. It looks so comfy, even I want to sit it in... We chose RED for the Maxi-cosi car seat cause it looks like a Ferrari car seat...keke...

More shopping awaits tomorrow..... :D

Preparing for baby's arrival...

One of the things I've enjoyed lately is SHOPPING. The only therapy I can do now since I can't do sports or spa or anything else that's seemingly dangerous. :(


Life has never been THIS exciting mundane.


Well, shopping has its own cons as well since I can't shop for 'NORMAL' clothes now and no salesgal would wanna entertain me either. It's really depressing. :(
** Note - 'NORMAL' means my usual size S **


So the only retail therapy I can seek now is to buy my baby stuff. You'd be surprised at the list of things to buy! From cots to bedding sets, strollers to car seats, toiletries to bathing accessories, diapers, milk pumps, wardrobe and heaps of bb clothes in different sizes!


Nowadays, my shopping agony would be "Should I buy for newborn, or for 3-6 months, or 6-12 months?" Why? Cause babies grow at alarming rates! -_-


The strangest thing Dylan and I have realized is that we usually don't have 2nd thoughts on the things we want to buy for our baby. We just want the best, if not at least 2nd best.


I hate the fact that we're spending our money wisely frivolously. But at the same time ironically, we're enjoying every moment of our shopping time! :D It's like a whole new experience altogether. (Yea right...wait till we see our credit card bills)


We've stocked up the stuff we bought at the spare room. Even looking at its raw and unarranged state has some unexplainable anticipation & adrenalin-high effect. Oh, did I also mention it's also useful for amnesia therapy? Hehe...


More to update on our shopping spree...


For now, we're just preparing for our baby's arrival... :)
